Digital Signal Processing is a field all unto itself. They are definitely *not* emulating mechanical filters. If they were they would be ringing like a mechanical filter. A great text is, "Discrete-Time Signal Processing <https://www.amazon.com/Discrete-Time-Signal-Processing-3rd-Prentice-Hall/dp/0131988425/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&qid=1489936960&sr=8-1&keywords=Discrete-Time+Signal+Processing+by+A.+V.+Oppenheim+and+R.+W.+Schafer&linkCode=ll1&tag=dspgsm0f-20&linkId=9273a86cec7d4d591dbb9d679bd2afb0> by A. V. Oppenheim and R. W. Schafer.

This is good news because we have not plumbed the depths of what can and can’t be done with DSP yet.
