Eight Channel Processor
The digital eight channel processor has a number of unique and powerful features which include:
~Control and monitoring from an inexpensive PC
~Software controlled input gain from 0dB to +48dB
~Phantom power and polarity controls for each input
~Nine digital audio processors per signal path...that’s 72 processors!
This configuration accomplishes all that...
This design utilizes the DSP capability of a BLU-16, configured with eight inputs and eight outputs, to provide eight discrete channels of comprehensive processing, invaluable to today’s live sound engineer. A single BLU-16 provides the equivalent processing of 72 discrete analog rack mount devices at a fraction of the cost and rack space.
A PC running HiQnet™ London Architect™ and connected to the BLU-16 provides the Graphical User Interface. Typically this would be a laptop, but it could just as easily be a touch screen computer or wireless tablet PC, as the BLU-16 is controlled using standard Ethernet. In the design shown, custom control panels, divided into multiple sub-pages, allow the system operator easy access to all the controls for each of the 72 processing objects within the design.
In addition, the operator has the ability to select any of the eight inputs and adjust input gain as well as enable or disable phantom power. Full metering gives the audio engineer accurate indication of signal level at various points in each signal chain. Each channel also has adjustable output gain, polarity and mute.
Each input can be selectively processed by the following nine processors:
~Pre EQ - Type (high shelf, low shelf or bell), Slope, Frequency, Width and Boost/Cut for each of the 12 bands of EQ.
~Compressor – Threshold, Ratio, Attack, Release, Gain, Auto Release, and Bypass.
~Expander – Threshold, Attack, Release, Ratio, and Bypass.
~Limiter – Threshold, Attack, Release and Bypass.
~Gate – Threshold, Range, Attack, Hold, Release, Manual Open and Bypass.
~Delay – Time (displayed in Milliseconds, Meters or Feet & Inches) and Bypass.
~Low Pass Filter – Frequency, Filter Type, Bypass.
~High Pass Filter – Frequency, Filter Type, Bypass.
~Post EQ - Type (high shelf, low shelf or bell), Slope, Frequency, Width and Boost/Cut for each of the 12 bands of EQ.
