Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Electro-Voice DC-One Digital Signal Processor.
The Electro-Voice DC-One Digital System Processor is a universal two-input, six-output digital signal processor with the flexibility of configuration to handle a multitude of audio system needs and applications; installed sound, house of worship, convention & meeting facilities, concert touring, club, portable sound reinforcement and more.
IMPORTANT NOTE
To achieve optimum perfor- mance and guard against damage to the processor, your sound system or your- self, please read, understand and follow all of the direc- tions contained in this Owner’s Manual. Failure to do so may result in improper performance, loss or injury.
DC-One Features
The internal routing matrix can be configured as 2-way stereo + full-range, 3-way stereo, 4-way mono + full-range, 5-way mono + full range, 3-way stereo with a mono sub + full-range, 4-way stereo with mono sub and low frequency and finally as a freely assignable 2 x 6 matrix router.
The DC-One replaces entire racks of signal processors previously needed to properly configure and control sound reinforcement systems with a single Analog Devices® SHARC™ DSP processor. The substantial advantages of the DC-One over discrete signal processing racks include:
•24-bit, 48kHz digital signal path
•No patch cables to fail or add noise
•Optimal gain structure throughout all stages of signal processing; no gain matching from processor to processor.
•Recallable factory and user presets; instant system reconfiguration for differing applications and performances.
•Easy, intuitive operation and editing with a PC and the DC-One Graphic User Interface Application.
Each DC-One Digital System Processor includes the following signal processing blocks:
•Input VU Metering
•Analog or AES/EBU inputs
•24-bit, 48kHz A/D converters
•Stereo Hi-pass filters
•Stereo 9-band parametric equalizer
•Stereo 31-band graphic equalizer (available as a software add-on with V1.1 firmware-see www.electrovoice.com for details)
•Stereo delay
