Thank you for your purchase of the DSPXmini-FM digital audio broadcast processor.
Over the last decade the staff at BW have observed broadcast processors from afar with fascination and intrigue
and shared a keen interest in digital audio processing. In January 2002 we decided on a whim that it was time to
have a go at designing our own digital audio processor. We knew that if we were going to design an audio proc-
essor we had to do it the BW way and make the processor the most cost effective fully featured all-in-one broad-
cast processor on the planet. The one aim, to make an audio processor that offered all of the features found in
the other more costly processors but at a fraction of the price. That processor was the DSPX!
Why DSPX? Like most products the concept is conceived nameless. The name DSPX came about for several
reasons. Firstly, the BW team couldn't decide on a name we liked so the concept became DSP processor X. As
the project developed it soon became clear that the processor was to be a processor for all seasons and so in
true algebraic fashion X represents many things. DSPX was born.
The DSPX became very popular but we were getting a lot of inquires for a more cost-effective solution for FM.
And so, the DSPXmini-FM was born, as a scaled down version of DSPX with some reduced features like no
LED metering, no analog outputs and less sophisticated distortion control. By incorporating proven -band AGC,
-band limiter and high-performance digital stereo generator, DSPXmini-FM offers loudness, consistency and
adjustability never before seen in a small processor like this.
Once again, thank you for your purchase; we hope you enjoy the DSPXmini-FM.
DSPX Team
