DP200 Page 6IntroductionThe DP200 is a compact and powerful DSP based audio processing unit, ideallysuited for fixed installations, where it combines the functions of multipleconventional products in a compact 1U high unit. To achieve this the DP200provides:- 2 input 4 output format, 10 configurations including 4 crossover modes, 4x 8 bands of parametric equalisation, up to 682mS delay, variable High andLowpass filters, 4 output limiters and digital level controls for each output. Eachparametric section can be positioned between 20Hz & 20kHz, features a widerange of Q's and has +15dB to -30dB gain available, controllable in 0.1dB steps.The first two sections can also be designated a Low or High frequency shelvingfilter. MIDI control and user memories are provided, and also a multi-level security'lock-out' function for all controls. The DP200 is also available with optionalAES/EBU inputs and outputs. The DP200 is designed for quick adjustment viaeasy-to-use front panel controls, or it can be controlled externally by XTA'sAudioCore Windows™ control software, along with both existing and futureAudioCore series products.Features• Superb audio quality : Carefully optimised Double Precision processing plus 40bit internal data path for exceptional dynamic range and sonic quality.• A flexible 2 input, 4 output multi-mode format featuring a choice of 2 way / 4 way/ 3 way + Sub Crossover, dual 16 / quad 8 band parametric equaliser and dual14 / quad 5 band parametric equaliser with limiters.• Each parametric section provides +15dB to -30dB of gain at any centrefrequency 20Hz - 20kHz with a wide range of Q's from 0.4 to 128. All parametersfeature fine resolution with 1/24 octave frequency steps, 0.1dB gain incrementsand 100 Q settings.• Parametric sections 1 and 2 can be set for LF & HF shelving response.• Four high performance limiters are provided, featuring a wide range of controlover Attack, Release and Threshold parameters. A limiter display functionprovides four 'over-limit' meters simultaneously on the LCD display.• Variable High and Low pass filters for each output can be set for 12, 18 and24dB / octave slopes and a choice of Bessel, Butterworth or Linkwitz-Rileyresponses are available. Independent control over High & Lowpass functionsallows asymmetric crossover functions to be realised.• Phase reverse is selectable for each output.• Three velocity-sensitive rotary encoders provide a familiar and easy to usecontrol format with all filter information displayed simultaneously on a backlitLCD display.• Channel and section 'Flat' keys are provided allowing A/B comparison, orequalisation to be pre-set and then dropped in.
