Bit One is a multi-function digital processor capable of interfacing
with any analog and/or digital source, turning any ordinary system into
one with very high-level performance. Despite its compact size, the Bit
One is equipped with a powerful, latest generation 266 MHz / 32 bit
floating point DSP microprocessor, working in real time on all the
functions of the most complete systems. Managed and configured by a
simple and intuitive computer software, it is possible to make
adjustments to improve the signal through each phase of its path; from
input to output.
Audio DSP and Converters:
32-BIT floating point Analog Devices Sharc (Clock speed: 266MHz) Digital
Signal Processing chip and Wolfson A/D D/A converters working in PCM at
48kHz with 24 Bit resolution. Tuning functions can be heard in real
time due to processing speed.
Audio Inputs:
8 independent high-level channels (with automatic summing capability) or 6 independent analog low-level channels
2 analog low-level stereo auxiliary inputs
1 optical digital input
1 electric coaxial digital input
1 high-level momentary audio interrupt input (with Mute IN) for use with mobile phone or navigation systems
Audio Outputs:
8 independent low-level analog channels featuring adjustable level and 1
AD Link output (8 independent digital audio channels through a single
CAT 5.S LAN cable for use with AD Link provided amplifiers)
Digital Control System:
1 USB /B (2.0) connector for PC connection
2 AC Link control bus connectors for DRC and AC Link amplifiers
Configuration:
Guided procedure that, thanks to a wide range of set names, provides the
ability to assign each component to the Bit One connections and
automatically coordinate their functioning
Turn-on Controls
ARTTM automatic remote turn on/off circuit.
Through the car ignition key with memory function.
Through the DRC.
Automatically through the hands-free phone kit.
In/Out Volume:
Input sensitivity automatically adjusted for the main inputs (with supplied Test CD and DVD)
Manual input sensitivity adjustment for auxiliary inputs
Independent level control for each output channel for system fine tuning (-40 ÷ 0 dB)
Dynamic Equalizer:
System automatically self-adjusts through an equalization between low
and high listening levels that can be set by the user and controlled by
the DRC
De-equalization and Calibration:
Automatic de-equalization of signal fed into the high-level inputs (with
supplied Test CD or and calibration DVD) and levels calibration
Equalizers:
One 31-band graphic equalizer (1/3Oct.; ±12dB) for each one of the 4 auxiliary input
One 31-band graphic equalizer (1/3 Oct.; ±12dB) for each one of the 8 output channels
Crossover Filter:
Filter typology: Selectable; Hi-pass, Lo-pass, Bandpass, Full Range
Cut-off frequency: 70 steps available from 10Hz to 20kHz
Cut-off slope: Selectable; 6 to 48 dB/Oct.
Alignments: Selectable; Linkwitz or Butterworth
Mute: Selectable for each output (On/Off)
Phase: Selectable for each output (0°/180°)
Signal Channels Reconstruction:
It can reconstruct a stereo signal from a multi-channel signal. In
addition it can reconstruct a centre channel and subwoofer channels from
a stereo input alone
Time Alignment:
Guided procedure for the speaker distance data entry with an automated
calculation of proper delay times for each channel for accurate time
alignment set-up. System also provides for manual fine tuning of delay
(0÷22 ms max)
Auto Restart:
Automatic turn Off/On, if the DSP locks up
DRC:
Master Volume control, Subwoofer Volume control, Balance control, Fader
control, Input selection, Memory selection, Dynamic Equalizer On/Off,
Adjustable display brightness, Access to digital features of Audison TH
amps if connected
Memory:
4 presets separately managed and recalled by the DRC Remote Control
