INPUT PROCESSING MODULE<br />
FOR CKS, CKV & CKX SERIES<br />
POWER PROCESSING AMPLIFIERS<br />
<strong>NC</strong>-<strong>DSP</strong>-D Digital Signal Processor (<strong>DSP</strong>)<br />
Product Information<br />
The <strong>NC</strong>-<strong>DSP</strong>-D Module fits in the Input Processing bay located on the<br />
rear panel of <strong>Crest</strong> <strong>Audio</strong> CKS, CKV & CKX Series Power Processing<br />
amplifiers. It provides state-of-the-art digital signal processing integrated<br />
with the amplifier channel. Input to the <strong>NC</strong>-<strong>DSP</strong>-D is via an<br />
AES/EBU digital port, removing the need for an extra D/A A/D conversion.<br />
This reduces cost and noise, and improves system performance.<br />
Two post-processing analog outputs are provided to daisy chain to additional<br />
amp channels requiring the same processing.<br />
An internal jumper selects between gains of X20 (26 dB), X40 (32 dB),<br />
or constant sensitivity for full output at 0dBu (.775V) in. The standard<br />
factory setting is for X40 (32dB). Individual channel attenuators are provided<br />
with removable knobs for extra security.<br />
Via NexSys ® or N-Coder/PC software, algorithms are down-loaded to<br />
the <strong>NC</strong>-<strong>DSP</strong>-D to perform crossover, equalizing, driver alignment, system<br />
delay, limiting, compression, gating functions, etc. All the requirements<br />
for loudspeaker processing can be performed by the <strong>NC</strong>-<strong>DSP</strong>-D.<br />
Features:<br />
• Digital signal processing and attenuation programmed by NexSys or N-Coder/PC software.<br />
• Can be used stand-alone after being programmed • AES/EBU digital input<br />
• Balanced input barrier strip connectors • Two delays are equivalent to 600 feet (183 meters) each<br />
• Analog loop-thru post-processing outputs on barrier strip connectors • Amp channel gain pot knobs removable for security<br />
• Crossover, EQ, delay, and dynamics functions • Simple setup, tamper-proof configuration<br />
• Data error LED indicator<br />
Internal Features<br />
• Jumper-selectable gain of X20 (26 dB), X40 (32 dB, factory setting), or constant sensitivity for full output at 0dBu (.775V) in.<br />

being programmed with the N-Coder/PC software. The audio input shall be of AES/EBU<br />
type on a three pin XLR. Two, post-processing, analog outputs on barrier strip connectors<br />
shall be provided to loop-thru out to additional amp channels requiring the same processing.<br />
Two removable-knob gain pots shall be provided that control the level of each amplifier<br />
channel independent of programming. The module shall be designated the <strong>Crest</strong> <strong>Audio</strong><br />
