Our best 8-channel DSP
State-of-the-art
technology in established design – the DSP.3 has been continually
refined and presents itself as our best digital 8-channel signal
processor we have ever built.
Incredible sound experience – ready for High-Res audio
Searching
for the perfect sound pushes our engineers on and on. The 64 Bit audio
DSP and throughout sophisticated signal processing with 96 kHz sampling
rate and native 32 Bit resolution as well as the new separated AD and DA
signal converters from Asahi Kasei provide outstanding sound quality.
Ideal for the processing of High-Res audio signals with an audio
bandwidth of more than 40 kHz. Besides that the DSP.3 offers our unique
DSP sound features like the ”Augmented Bass Processing”, the
“StageXpander” or the “RealCenter“ function which open new possibilities
to tweak your audio system. Together with the 6 V RCA outputs the DSP.3
sets a new benchmark in this price range.
ACO – Advanced 32 Bit platform
Logically the
DSP.3 is now equipped with the new, extraordinary powerful 32 Bit ACO
(Advanced CoProcessor) platform. This takes over all monitoring tasks
and provides a decisive speed increase particularly in data
communication with our DSP PC-Tool software, but also when switching
between different sound setups in only 300 msec. In addition, the ACO
offers 10 internal memory locations for sound setups instead of the
usual two as well as an integrated, channel-separated Input EQ and our
Input Signal Analyzer (ISA) for easy analysis and compensation of input
signals. By doing so it is possible to de-equalize any ex-factory sound
tunings which significantly simplifies the integration of several signal
sources.
Extensive basic feature set
Of course, the
highlevel input with ADEP.3 circuit (Advanced Diagnostics Error
Protection, 3rd Generation), the Auto Remote switch, an optical input as
well as the HELIX Extension Card slot (HEC slot) for system add-ons
like Bluetooth® Audio Streaming or High Resolution Audio Streaming via USB are part of the basic feature set.
DSP PC-Tool
Needless to say that the HELIX DSP.3
can be configured as easy as usual thanks to the professional and
particularly user-friendly DSP PC-Tool Software V4.
