DP11EQ SOFTWARE
Introduction
This section describes the Windows-based computer interface software which allows you to
control the Shure DP11EQ . The software controls a dynamics processor which can operate as a
gate, expander, leveler, compressor, limiter, and no overshoot peak limiter. There are parametric
equalizers placed before and after the dynamics processor. In addition, there is a digital delay which
can add up to 1.3 seconds of delay from input to output.
