After three decades of developing pioneering audio products and systems, QSC raises the bar once again, setting a new standard in signal processing with the new DSP-3 Digital Signal Processing Module.

The DSP-3’s two channels of independent signal processing deliver more power, flexibility, and features—in short, more of everything you really need in a DSP—for less. Simple to install and compact, the DSP-3 is the advanced and affordable digital signal processing solution for your audio system.

Optimize Your Sound With DSP From QSC

Powerful

The DSP-3’s powerful processor allows you to perform a wide range of signal processing functions. Whether you need speaker crossovers, EQ, time delay, or subsonic filters, the DSP-3 is as flexible as your system’s needs.

Each channel includes:

 

 

Crossover filtering

Compression and limiting

Multiple Parametric EQs

Precision attenuation

Shelf filtering

Mixing

Multiple Delays (up to 910 ms)

Tone or noise generation

Save space and weight by plugging the DSP-3 into the back of most DataPort-equipped QSC amplifiers. Or use multiple DSP-3s as a stand-alone, rack-mountable DSP solution.

Configurable

The DSP-3’s processing horsepower is dynamically assignable so you are not limited by a fixed signal chain. Simply use the powerful PC-based Signal Manager software to easily configure multiple processing functions and signal flow with “drag-and-drop” tools.

Cost-effective

The power and flexibility of the DSP-3’s eliminates the need for expensive outboard processing gear, reducing cost and installation time for almost any application. The compact DSP-3’s also plug directly to the back of most QSC DataPort-equipped amplifiers for use in systems where rack space is a premium.
