Dirac Series processors are available in several versions. The DDRC-22A has analog inputs and outputs, while the
DDRC-22D has digital inputs and outputs. The DDRC-22DA has digital inputs and analog outputs, thus eliminating
the need for a separate DAC. Each is inserted into the signal chain in the appropriate location (examples follow).

YPICAL SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONS
The DDRC-22A (analog input/output) is typically inserted into the analog signal chain just before power
amplification, such as between a preamp or mixing/mastering console and power amp. Since it has on-board
volume control, it can also be used in systems where there is no other volume control, such as between a CD
player and a power amplifier.
