DSP overview

Input channels

Input polarity setting

Set according to the polarity of the input channel signal.

Compressor

When the input volume exceeds the THRESHOLD level, the input volume is compressed, reducing output volume variation.

Input equalizer

This unit has 4-band equalizers for the input channels.

Use the equalizer to increase or decrease the levels of specific frequency ranges. This can be used, for example, to enhance the sound of individual instruments, to adjust the balance of a wide frequency range and to cut specific unwanted frequencies.

Automatic level control function

When the input sound level is too low or too high, the input level will be increased or decreased automatically to an appropriate level.

Input channel fader

Adjust the level sent to the matrix and USB buses.

Input mute

Mute the input channel signal.

Mixer

Matrix mixer

This unit has simple matrix mixer functions.

Ducking function

When a mic signal is input, the ducking function can automatically lower the volume of background music or other sound input through the line input channels.

Ambient noise compensator (ANC) function

The ANC function can measure ambient noise and automatically adjust the volume to make the main sound source easier to hear.

Routing setting

Audio can be routed to multiple output channels through the matrix mixer, the ducking function and the ANC function.

Output channels

Output equalizer

This unit has 10-band equalizers for the output channels.

Use the equalizer to increase or decrease the levels of specific frequency ranges. This can be used, for example, to enhance the sound of individual instruments, to adjust the balance of a wide frequency range and to cut specific unwanted frequencies.

Delay function

Use to adjust the delay of output channel signals.

Output channel fader

Use to adjust the level sent to the output jack.

Output mute

Mute the output channel signal.

Output limiter function

This prevents distortion caused by sudden excessive output signal levels.
