USB-audio as an interface for computers. Tight AV DSP 1.0 is a Windows-based application used to configure and control the DSP hardware. An easy-to-use GUI gives the user fast access to all the available processing functions. The unit has 16 built-in presets that can store the complete configuration for later recall.
Audio DSP with AEC, 4-in/4-out analog, 4-in/4-out Dante and USB 1.5 Floating Point DSP The signal processing is done in an Analog Devices SHARC DSP, enabling 32-bit and 40-bit floating-point processing. Floating- point processing provides advantages for the users in terms of sound quality and usability. With floating point processing the internal calculations of the DSP will have higher dynamic range and avoid rounding errors that can be a cause of noise.

Audio DSP with AEC, 4-in/4-out analog, 4-in/4-out Dante and USB 3.3.2 Expander The expander will reduce the signal level by the selected ratio when the signal goes below the threshold. Fig.3.2 Expander expander has the following control parameters: Threshold: The expander is active when the signal goes below this threshold. Ratio: Refers to the slope below the threshold point on the gain curve.
Audio DSP with AEC, 4-in/4-out analog, 4-in/4-out Dante and USB Attack & Release Time: Refers to the time required to activate the compressor when the signal goes above the threshold. Output Gain: Used to compensate for the gain reduction in the compressor. G.R.
Audio DSP with AEC, 4-in/4-out analog, 4-in/4-out Dante and USB When the signal level is lower than the threshold, the input-to-output ratio is 1:1. When the Threshold: signal level is higher than the threshold, the input-to-output ratio changes with the ratio control settings. The threshold should be set just above the background noise level to avoid amplification of the noise.
Audio DSP with AEC, 4-in/4-out analog, 4-in/4-out Dante and USB 3.3.6 Feedback filters After setting proper levels for microphone and speakers, the feedback filter section can be used as a secondary precaution to avoid unwanted feedback. The traditional methods should still be used, such as limiting the number of open microphones, minimizing the distance between sound source and microphone, good distance between the microphone and loudspeakers, and equalizing the room speakers to get a flat response.
Audio DSP with AEC, 4-in/4-out analog, 4-in/4-out Dante and USB Filter Mode: Each feedback filter has three modes: dynamic, manual and fixed. When manual mode is set, the gain can also be manually set. When Fixed mode is set, the filter always works and will not be occupied by new feedback points; it still works when being rebooted.
Audio DSP with AEC, 4-in/4-out analog, 4-in/4-out Dante and USB (2) Channel control parameters AutoMixer: Each channel has an automix on/off button which must be turned on for channels to participate in the automix. Mute: Both channel mute and fader are behind auto gain. If the channel level is increased, the gain level of other channels may also be reduced even if the channel mute is on.
Audio DSP with AEC, 4-in/4-out analog, 4-in/4-out Dante and USB 3.3.9 Automatic Noise Suppression (ANS) The Noise suppression module can remove noise from the microphone signal. To use the ANS, the direct routing of the microphone input channel should be disabled, and the output of the ANS should be routed to the selected destination in the matrix.
Audio DSP with AEC, 4-in/4-out analog, 4-in/4-out Dante and USB 3.3.11 High & Low Pass Filter The output channels have high- and low-pass filters. Each filter has four parameters: Frequency: The cut-off frequency of filters. The cut-off frequency of Bessel and Butterworth is defined at -3 dB, and the cut-off frequency of Linkwitz-Riley is defined at -6dB.
