Linea Research has released an update to the ASC48 DSP System Controller, with the addition of Dante outputs and user accessible FIR functionality.
All ASC48 processors now ship with FIR filters on every output, allowing files to be imported with up to 384 taps at 48kHz or 768 at 96kHz. Fully compatible with FIR design software like Eclipse Audio’s FIR Designer, this new functionality matches that in Linea Research’s M and C series of networked DSP amplifiers where many users and loudspeaker manufacturers have already been developing settings.
Dante-equipped versions of the ASC48 receive an additional upgrade and can now output Dante back onto the network as well as receiving it. This allows the ASC48 system controller to pick from almost any part of the signal chain, the physical input, pre or post input processing, or the final processed output, and deliver this signal back onto the Dante network.
‘In combination with the existing analogue and AES inputs this new Dante output capability turns the ASC48 into a 12x4x16 routing matrix, including the distribution of post DSP processed signals back onto the network,’ explains, Linea Director of Research, Davey Smalley. ‘These new additions of FIR processing and enhanced Dante flexibility are all the result of feedback from our customers coupled with our drive to continually improve our products.’
