AN INtroDuctIoN to the DNS 2
The DnS 2 is a further development of the DnS technology introduced in
the academy award winning DnS1000 and the DnS 8 live dialogue noise
suppressors. It is small, light and portable, and ideal for use on location as well
as in the studio and in post. Offering two channels of dialogue noise suppression,
its simple user-interface allows users to obtain optimum results almost instantly
and with the minimum of effort. nonetheless, it retains the near-zero latency of its
predecessors and, with its 4-pin 12VDC power socket, it’s suitable for use in all
live situations - not just on location and for live-to-air broadcasting, but also for live
sound in venues such as theatres, concert halls, conferences venues, and places
of worship.
The DnS 2 operates by dividing incoming signals into a large number of
bands. Sophisticated filters analyse each of these and then suppress the noise
independently in each. The innovative design of the filter bank eliminates the
need to select the range of frequencies in which the unit will operate, and it’s not
necessary to adjust the amount of attenuation in individual bands.
