AVE Digital Audio Processor 4-In 8-Out (96KHz)

The AVE Digital Audio Processor represents the pinnacle of professional audio processing technology, delivering studio-grade sound optimization for live performances, conferences, and entertainment venues. With its powerful 32-bit DSP processing and 96KHz sampling rate, this processor ensures pristine audio quality that meets the demands of professional sound engineers and performers alike.

Professional DSP Processing Power

The AVE Digital Audio Processor features cutting-edge TI OMAP-L138 high-performance DSP technology, providing exceptional computing power of up to 3648 MIPS. Furthermore, the system utilizes 32-bit ADC and 24-bit DAC conversion for superior audio fidelity. Additionally, the processor supports sampling rates up to 96KHz, ensuring every nuance of your audio is captured and reproduced with remarkable clarity.

With a dynamic range exceeding 112dB and THD+N of less than 0.002%, this processor delivers transparent audio processing. Moreover, the system achieves an impressive signal-to-noise ratio of greater than 112dB, making it ideal for the most demanding professional applications.

Comprehensive Audio Control and Flexibility

Each input and output channel features a comprehensive 16-band parametric equalizer with six equalization types, including peaking, notch, all-pass filters, and shelf filters. In addition, the processor offers HPF and LPF filters with multiple slope options ranging from 6dB to 48dB per octave. The filter types include Butterworth, Bessel, and Linkwitz-Riley, providing ultimate flexibility for sound shaping.

What’s more, every channel includes independent phase control, adjustable delay up to 2000ms, and customizable routing capabilities. The input channels feature noise gates and compressors, while output channels are equipped with brick-wall limiters for absolute protection. Consequently, sound engineers have complete control over every aspect of their audio signal chain.

Intuitive Control and Connectivity

The front panel features a clear LCD screen displaying real-time information including scene status, CPU utilization, and IP address. Additionally, dedicated function buttons provide quick access to gain, EQ, crossover, compression, limiting, and delay parameters. The comprehensive LED metering system offers instant visual feedback for all input and output channels.

Connectivity options are equally impressive, featuring Ethernet, USB, and RS-232 interfaces for versatile control options. Furthermore, the processor supports 128 preset scenes, allowing instant recall of different configurations. The system also includes permission management for enhanced security in multi-user environments.

Built for Professional Applications

Engineered specifically for professional performances, bars, conference rooms, and live sound reinforcement, this processor delivers reliability and performance. The robust construction ensures years of dependable service, while the advanced signal processing maintains audio integrity even in challenging environments. Moreover, the built-in signal generator provides pink noise, white noise, and sweep functions for system optimization.

The processor features flexible routing capabilities, allowing any input to be routed to any output combination. Additionally, parameter settings can be copied between channels and linked for synchronized adjustments. The Auto EQ function enables quick optimization by importing channel parameters, streamlining the setup process significantly.
