Product Introduction
The OpenDRC is a Digital Audio Signal Processor (DSP) capable of performing a wide range of processing including filtering (FIR + IIR),
compression/limiter, time alignment.. Typically located between an audio source (CD player/Receiver/Preamp/PC .. etc) and the
amplifier, the OpenDRC will provide unparalleled tuning flexibility to improve your audio system’s performance. Using a PC/Mac
machine and a USB connection, you will be able to control your platform from the “plug-in”: an intuitive software application
allowing real time modification to your configuration.
Besides its audio specs, a great part of our product concept lies in its simplicity of use. The sequence of steps required to control the
unit can be summarized as follow:
-
Connect the board to your PC/Mac machine using a USB cable
-
Launch the plug-in to configure settings as required.
-
Click “Connect & Synchronize” your PC to the board
-
Once synchronized, any change is real time and does not require any “Synchronization”. All settings are also automatically
saved to both the DSP and the Flash for long term memory.
-
Once happy with your configuration, you can disconnect the board from your computer since from this point on, the audio
configuration will run as last modified in on-line mode and recalled following every reboot.
-
Enjoy!
