26e and VSX

 48e

Digital Loudspeaker Processors

The VSXe processors are  DSP-based, loudspeaker management systems that boast a 96kHz sample rate and a floating point DSP processor for 
quiet accurate filter response.  The crossover filters are fully adjustable and any input can be routed to any output.  The VSX® Editor Program for PC 
allows complete remote setup and operation via  the front panel USB port or by the rear panel Ethernet network connection.  Files can also be saved 
and loaded using this interface software.

This manual covers both the VSX 26e and VSX 48e DSP processors.  The units are essentially identical except for the number of inputs and outputs.  

Please read this guide carefully to ensure your personal safety as well as the safety of your equipment.
