LMS-D6 LOUDSPEAKER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The LMS-D6 is a compact and powerful DSP based audio-processing unit, ideally suited for fixed installation applications, where it combines the functions of multiple conventional products in a compact 1U high unit. To achieve this the LMS-D6 has 2 inputs and 6 outputs, which can be configured in 5 basic modes: 3 x 2 way, 2 x 3 way, 4 way, 5 way and 6 way crossover. Each input has gain and delay. Each output consists of a high and lowpass filter, 5 bands of parametric equalisation, limiter, delay, gain and polarity controls. User memories are provided, and also a multi-level security 'lock-out' function for all controls. The LMS-D6 is also available with optional AES/EBU inputs and outputs. The LMS-D6 is designed for quick adjustment via easy-to-use front panel controls.
Features
♦Superb audio quality: carefully optimised double precision processing plus 40 bit internal data path for exceptional dynamic range and sonic quality.
♦A flexible 2 input, 6 output multi-mode format featuring a choice of 3 x 2 way, 2 x 3 way, 4 + 2 way, 5 + 1 way and 6 way crossover modes with limiters.
♦Each parametric section provides +15dB to -30dB of gain at centre frequencies between 20Hz - 20kHz with a wide range of Qs from 0.4 to 128. All parameters feature fine resolution with 1/36th octave frequency steps, 0.1dB gain increments and 100 Q settings. Any parametric section can be set for LF & HF shelving response.
♦Six high performance limiters are provided, featuring a wide range of control over Attack, Release and Threshold parameters. The output meters shows headroom to the limit threshold. The meter time constants track the limiter time constants to show precise power usage.
♦Variable high and low-pass filters for each output can be set for 12, 18 and 24dB per octave slopes with a choice of Bessel, Butterworth or Linkwitz-Riley responses. Independent control over high & low-pass functions allows asymmetric crossover functions to be realised.
♦Three velocity-sensitive rotary encoders provide a familiar and easy to use control format with all filter information displayed simultaneously on a backlit LCD display.
♦Delay of up to 650mS can be independently set for each output with a minimum increment of 2.6µS.
♦Comprehensive standard specification includes 20 user memories, and Turbosound’s pre set memories.
♦The LMS-D6 provides exceptional audio quality with a full >110dB dynamic range, high sampling rate and minimal filtering.
