The AVE Digital Audio Processor represents the pinnacle of professional audio processing technology, delivering studio-grade sound optimization for live performances, conferences, and entertainment venues with powerful 32-bit DSP processing and 96KHz sampling rate that ensures pristine audio quality meeting the demands of professional sound engineers and performers alike. Featuring cutting-edge TI OMAP-L138 high-performance DSP technology that provides exceptional computing power of up to 3648 MIPS, the system utilizes 32-bit ADC and 24-bit DAC conversion for superior audio fidelity, achieves a dynamic range exceeding 112dB with THD+N of less than 0.002%, and maintains an impressive signal-to-noise ratio greater than 112dB, making it ideal for the most demanding professional applications. Each input and output channel features a comprehensive 16-band parametric equalizer with six equalization types including peaking, notch, all-pass filters, and shelf filters, along with HPF and LPF filters offering multiple slope options from 6dB to 48dB per octave in Butterworth, Bessel, and Linkwitz-Riley configurations, independent phase control, adjustable delay up to 2000ms, input noise gates and compressors with full parameter control, output brick-wall limiters for absolute speaker protection, and flexible routing capabilities allowing any input to be routed to any output combination. Available in three configurations—2×4, 3×6, or 4×8 channels—the processor features a front panel with clear LCD screen displaying real-time information including scene status, CPU utilization, and IP address, dedicated function buttons providing quick access to gain, EQ, crossover, compression, limiting, and delay parameters, comprehensive LED metering for instant visual feedback, Ethernet, USB, and RS-232 interfaces for versatile control options, 128 preset scene memories for instant recall, FIR filter support with Auto EQ functionality for quick optimization, AES/EBU digital input and output connectivity, permission management for enhanced security in multi-user environments, a built-in signal generator with pink noise, white noise, and sweep functions for system optimization, professional Neutrik XLR connectors, and a universal power supply supporting 100-240V operation in a compact 1U rack-mountable chassis design.
