DSP260

24-BIT DIGITAL SOUND SYSTEM PROCESSOR

With the DSP 260 digital 2-in-6 sound system manager, DYNACORD
is continuing its proud tradition in the fi eld of innovative digital
signal processors.

Based on the most modern hardware, this system manager offers
tried-and-tested as well as new algorithms for the simple and swift
construction of active multi-way systems. As much importance has
been attached here by the developers to high user-friendliness as
to the realization of an extremely favorable price.

24-bit sigma-delta AD/DA converters and a 32-bit fl oating-point si­gnal processor make possible a dynamic range of 111 dB. In ad­dition to the two analog inputs, a digital stereo input in AES/EBU
format is available. A -6 dB pad switch in front of the AD converters
offers additional security against overload when the device is con­nected to mixing desks with very high output levels. The 6 individually
mutable outputs are electronically balanced and available on XLR
sockets. For all inputs and outputs, easily read LED level meters
are provided on the front panel.

Users can choose whether to confi gure their own systems at the
device itself using the controls and display provided or else by means
of the intuitive editing software.

3-way stereo, 2-way stereo + FR, 4-way mono + FR etc. Further­more, factory presets compatible with those of the tried-and-tested
DSP-244 are available for Dynacord loudspeaker systems.

In terms of DSP, the device offers parametric and graphic EQs as
well as a delay function in the input and crossover, channel EQ,
channel delay and a level control with limiter in each output chan­nel.

An RS-232 interface allows Master/Slave operation of multiple
devices as well as GPI switching of settings. A PC (the supplied
editing software runs under Windows) can be connected via the
USB interface on the front panel.

A variable parameter lockout function allows you to determine which
settings and parameters can be accessed directly at the device. This

is just one of many features that make the DSP 260 an ideal choice
also for the rental business.

The wealth of features combined with its outstanding audio perfor­mance and favorable price commend this audio system manager
for a multitude of professional applications.
