Section 1 - Introduction
Based on the principles of the dbx Zone Processing products, the SC 32 / SC 64 Digital
Matrix Processors are the new flagship products for Digital Matrix Processing. Wizard driven
configuration using HiQnet System Architect™ makes unprecedented DSP power, incredible
routing flexibility and a rich palette of processing tools accessible with the minimum of
training. The SC 32 / SC 64 represent the professional choice of foundation on which to build
even the most demanding integrated system.
With dedicated DSP for common processing functions and insert positions for specialized
processing, the SC 32 / SC 64 offer many processing functions including Advanced Feedback
Suppression (AFS™), Ambient Noise Compensation (ANC), priority ducking, parametric
equalization (PEQ), delay and dynamics. The SC 32 / SC 64 have a diverse range of control
options including HiQnet™ System Architect custom control panels, Ethernet, serial, contact
closure, the popular ZC wall controllers and even automatically scheduled events. With so
many methods of control, an SC system can truly be tailored to suit the needs and technical
expertise of even the most scrutinizing contractor.
1.1 Defining the SC 32 / SC 64
The SC 32 has a maximum analog I/O count of 32 (the SC 64 has 64), configurable in banks
of eight. Eight card slots facilitate five different fully loaded configurations (nine in the SC
64). The analog input card accommodates a wide range of sources with mic/line switching and
phantom power per input. High-speed option slot(s) provide facility for adding forthcoming
high bandwidth audio transport I/O cards. All of these features are housed in a sleek 2U rack
chassis.
