Optimizing Audio — An Overview
Audio optimization is performed using the DSP Configurator application. The application
provides audio level and DSP processing controls that include audio gain, dynamics,
filtering, delay, ducking, and feedback suppression, essential for setting up and
configuring audio systems.
When configuring an MLS 608 D Series device, DSP Configurator has four workspaces
from which you can configure and view processing blocks, mix-points, and audio and
video ties in the system. DSP Configurator defaults to the Audio & Video I/O workspace
when the application launches. You can access the workspaces using:
z
View menu
— From the
View
menu, select a workspace shown in the list (
Audio &
Video I/O, Audio I/O,
or
Video I/O,
or
Console View
).
z
Function keys
— Use the <F2> (for Audio & Video I/O workspace), <F3> (Audio I/O
workspace), <F4> (Video I/O workspace), and <F5> (Console View workspace) keys.
z
Hyperlinks
— From the Legend section of the GUI (graphical user interface), click a
workspace hyperlink.
