time alignment

input and output gain adjustment

this is on EVERY channel.


think of it this way.

say instead of car audio with high sound quality as the goal

lets say you are building a custom engine for maximum performance.


the DSP would be like a high end stand alone engine management system...that allows you fine tune everything to obtain the best results.

the DSP does the same, except for listening pleasure

I was just curious if it can cascade more than one LP/HP per channel. Looking at the manual it uses only the single LP/HP. I can use that in combination with the PEQ to get the shaping of the roll off I want, but was hoping it could be done "properly".

BTW do you know how Zapco defines the center frequency of the Shelf filter?
