Using the DSAPilot, and with communications established with the loudspeakers, click on each loudspeaker in DSAPilot. The LED in both the DSAPilot graphic and on the actual loudspeaker will illuminate. Ensure that the physical orientation and position of each loudspeaker corresponds to that shown in the DSAPilot graphic. See the DSAPilot help file for further information.

CAUTION: Incorrect orientation or cluster position will result in poor to unusable performance.

Adjustment of the signal processing and thus the acoustical performance for each DSA Cluster is accomplished using the DSAPilot program. Complete instructions for its use can be found in the DSAPilot Help file.

These are the basic tasks that need to be done using the DSAPilot:

1.Select each cluster configuration used in the system design

2.Assign the installed clusters to those selected in the DSAPilot

3.Set the Steering parameters for each cluster

4.Configure the audio input routing for each cluster

5.Set the user-adjustable gain, EQ, compression, or signal delay for the inputs

6.Set the desired Power Saving operation

7.Save the final signal processing settings for the system to a file

DSA250 & DSA230 specifications

The EAW DSA250 and DSA230 are state-of-the-art powered loudspeakers designed for professional audio applications, offering high performance in a variety of environments. Both models deliver exceptional sound quality, ensuring clear audio reproduction for live events, installations, and portable use.

The EAW DSA250 features a robust bi-amplified design with a powerful 2500 watts of peak power output. This loudspeaker is equipped with a custom-designed 15-inch woofer, delivering deep and impactful low frequencies. Additionally, it boasts a 1.4-inch titanium compression driver that provides smooth mids and crisp highs, ensuring a well-balanced sound profile across the frequency spectrum.

On the other hand, the EAW DSA230 is engineered for similar high-performance needs but comes with a slightly more compact design. The DSA230 incorporates a 12-inch woofer, which still produces rich low-end sound, making it ideal for smaller venues or for use as a stage monitor. It features a 1-inch compression driver, which provides excellent vocal clarity and intelligibility.

Both models are equipped with advanced digital signal processing (DSP), allowing for optimized performance through precise loudspeaker modeling. The DSP offers various preset configurations tailored to different acoustic environments, allowing users to select the ideal settings for their specific applications. Additionally, the built-in EQ settings facilitate precise sound tuning, enabling users to adapt to various challenges presented by live sound environments.

One standout feature of the DSA series is the integration of the EAW FOCUS technology, which ensures consistent coverage and dynamic response across wide areas. This innovative technology also helps to minimize feedback and interference, making it a reliable choice for both performers and audio engineers.

The construction of both models is rugged, designed to withstand the rigors of touring while maintaining a professional appearance. They come with a sleek and practical enclosure design, featuring convenient mounting options for versatile deployment.

In summary, the EAW DSA250 and DSA230 loudspeakers are exemplary examples of advanced audio engineering, combining powerful amplification, precise DSP management, and robust build quality.
