Introduction (continued)

0.396 milliseconds. From digital input to analog output, the total delay is 2.167 milliseconds. The delay does not change regardless of the DSP configuration, unless the configura- tion intentionally adds more delay.

The BASIS 922dz also supports the new optional low- latency CobraNet feature that provides transport at only

2.66milliseconds delay. Thus the delay from analog to ana- log across the network can be less than 6 milliseconds, fast enough not only for large audio distribution but for the most critical real-time live performance work.

Both software and firmware can be easily updated over the network. In the future, QSC will be adding new capabilities
