Setting DSP Parameters When you select DSP from the appliance’s web UI, the DSP page appears. Figure 7. DSP Page From this page, you can set parameters for DSP, which is a form of processing that uses digital data to simulate characteristics found in analog circuits. With DSP, you can alter analog signals, such as audio signals, that have been converted to a digital format.
Table 7. DSP Features Intercom Tuning Allows you to specify settings used in intercom calls. Presets Allows you to use preset DSP settings for the selected speaker type. Setting the Channel Level The Channel Level control is a vertical slider that is adjusted in 1-dB increments and con- trols the output level for the channel.
Intercom Tuning Selecting Intercom Tuning from the Menu icon on the DSP page displays the Intercom Tuning page. Figure 8. Intercom Tuning Settings The Intercom Tuning page has level indicators for input and output signals and contains the following settings (see Table 8).
(e.g., microphone placement), these DSP settings must be customized for each model. Bogen has created predefined sets of model-specific DSP configurations to customize the signal for each device. These configurations are available via Presets. Note: It is important that the preset corresponding to the speaker model be specified.
