XC2 & XS2 Core - DSP unit
The powerful 52/XS2 & 52/XC2 Cores are independent DSP systems which do not require a PC for operation. There are no hard discs or batteries inside the XS2 and XC2 Core and in the I/O boxes, allowing silent and low-maintenance operation directly in the studio.
High-performance 40-bit floating-point digital signal processing for:
- 3-band fully parametric equalizers, subsonic filter, dynamics, limiter, delay for all 16 fader channels, mono or stereo
- 16 summing busses (stereo), Aux busses, clean feeds, and PFL
- 6 clean feeds (mix-minus, mono or stereo)
- 4 monitoring busses for control room and studio support
- flexible talkback, logic, and GPIO system
- integrated routing matrix
- internal tone generator
- Gigabit audio network for 512 input and 512 output channels for low-latency interconnection between 52/XS cores or to other DHD products
- internal or external 48 kHz or 44.1 kHz sync
Other features of the 52/XS2 and 52/XC2 Cores:
- highly efficient external wide-range power supply, Energy Star Level V, redundancy option
- minimal system power consumption
- expandable modular system allows optional integration of other DHD product lines
- serial or TCP/IP interface options to radio automation or other external control systems
