FEATURES AND HIGHLIGHTS

Six Channels Of Input and Output: The DQS is AudioControl’s first digital car audio equalizer with six input and output channels making it ideal for a multitude of applications. Whether you are designing around a source unit with multiple outputs or you have a full blown surround sound car theater system, the DQS is the processor for you.

Input and Output Level Controls: To help accurately level match your source units and amplifiers, the DQS has individual input and output level controls. This will help you maxi- mize the sound quality of your system and mini- mize any system noise. These controls will also help your DQS work with factory installed source units.

Constant-Q Equalization Controls: Car interiors vary widely in size and acoustic make- up. Doors, kick-panels, and rear decks don’t make the best location for speaker placement causing your high performance speaker system to sound somewhat lackluster. The DQS offers thirty precise one-third octave equalization controls per chan- nel for a total of 180 filters!

Parametric Equalization Controls: In addition to offering thirty, one-third octave controls, the DQS also packs two, fully-adjustable parametric equalization controls for each pair of channels. With the DQS’s parametric controls you can select a center frequency, dial in the ideal bandwidth and apply the appropriate amount of boost or cut. The precise filtering of the DQS allows you to select bandwidths as narrow as 1/12 octave!

Non-volatile Memories: The DQS has the ability to allow the user to set and store up to eight different system equalization settings in individual memory locations.

24-bit Digital Signal Processing: AudioControl’s digital signal processors use a special 24-bit DSP (digital signal processor) that was specifically designed for equalization and other dynamics processing. Matching 24-bit A/D - D/A converters are also incorporated for maxi- mum sound quality.
