Digital Speaker Processor 4 IN / 8 OUT The DX 4008 is a comprehensive 4-input, 8-output digital loudspeaker management system tailored for the touring or fixed sound installation sectors. Employing cutting-edge technology, the DX 4008 features a 32-bit (40-bit extended) floating-point processor and high-performance 24-bit Analog Converters. Its high-bit DSP effectively mitigates noise and distortion caused by truncation errors common in 24-bit fixed-point devices. The system offers a full range of parameters including I/O levels, delay, polarity, 6 bands of parametric EQ per channel, multiple crossover selections, and full-function limiters. Real-time control and configuration can be done on the panel or through the intuitive PC GUI accessed via the RS 232 interface. The device can be kept up-to-date with software upgrades for both CPU and DSP via PC, ensuring access to newly developed algorithms and functions. Multiple setup storage options and system security features complete this professional-grade package. Features: - The DX 4008 is a complete 4-input, 8-output digital loudspeaker management system designed for the touring or fixed sound installation markets. - Sampling rate can be set to 96kHz. - Precise frequency control with 1 Hz resolution. - Inputs and outputs can be configured in multiple ways to meet various requirements. - Shipped with a specialized PC Graphic User Interface (GUI) application - XLink. - XLink allows remote control of the DX 4008 unit from a PC via the RS232 serial communication link. - The GUI application simplifies device control and monitoring, providing a comprehensive overview on one screen. - Programs can be stored and recalled from the PC's hard drive, expanding storage capabilities virtually limitlessly.
