Just moved into a new house with a living/listening room that is an acoustical nightmare (with WAF-affected speaker placement, to boot). So, I thought I would experiment with some DRC. At the moment I have Slimserver running on a 450Mhz Mac Cube, so I am not inguz-compatible. (I can do some experimenting with a Macbook Pro running Bootcamp WinXP).
But, I have ended up with something called a Symetrix 322 DSP Engine (http://www.symetrixaudio.com/index.php?Show=14&Show1=&Show2=257). This seems to be some kind of pro audio dsp solution, I'm guessing mostly for use in concert hall PA systems. I also realize that this is probably inferior to the Inguz solution, if only because it adds an additional analog-digital-analog conversion (at least it hooks up via balanced cables). Still, I wanted to give it a try and was wondering how much Inguz/DRC functionality I can get from this box. The Symetrix documentation shows it has the following DSP modules: Lo Pass Parametric EQ (up to 8 bands per channel) Compressor / Limiter Pink Noise Generator Hi Pass Small Speaker EQ Gate Bus Send Shelf EQ Crossover Mixer Delay These modules can be parameterized and chained together (up to 8 per channel) using the Symetrix 322 Designer (a Windows app). The design then gets uploaded to the box over RS-232. Obviously, the Parametric EQ is similar, but are any of the other modules useful for room correction? Are there parameters that I could capture from the Inguz measurement methodology? Any pointers/ideas welcome. Thanks. -- muski ------------------------------------------------------------------------ muski's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3670 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34829 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
