Description
The X-Frame
™
88 is a fully program-
mable, fully configurable, Digital
Signal Processor (DSP) based audio
processing and control system. It
includes a core Digital Processing
Unit (DPU), referred to as a Sound
Engine; a Graphical User Interface
(GUI); interface options; and control
options.
The Sound Engine is a 24-bit parallel
DPU and is fully configurable to allow
the system designer unlimited versa-
tility in system design. Preset signal
flow or "standard" setups do not limit
the X-Frame88. Thus, the X-Frame88
is superior to similar DSP products
that have factory configurations. The
intuitive software interface provides
incredibly rich functionality for both
signal flow configuration and user
control.
The X-Frame 88’s host-processor and
non-volatile flash memory maintain
the configuration and provide inter-
face to the units front panel control
and optional external control inter-
faces.
The X-Frame 88's programmable
capability is enhanced by a full com-
plement of audio devices available
from the Win32-based Graphical User
Interface (GUI). Almost any style of
audio system can be designed and
implemented using a "drag, drop, and
wire" interface. The signal flow can be
as simple as two channels of loud-
speaker processing or as complex as
a multi-zone paging system with multi-
ple levels of priority, ducking, fire
alarm override, scene-snapshot con-
trol and automatic level ramping.
Audio processing devices available
include, but are not limited to: auto-
matic mixers, crossovers, AGC, gates,
limiters, expanders, duckers, ambient
sensing controllers, delay lines,
meters, mixers, routers, test signal
sources and equalizers of every vari-
ety. In addition, you can create your
own devices for custom applications.
These devices, once created, can
then become a part of your device
palate for repeated use.
