 DP-0206 Digital Signal Processor

THE DP-0206 MODULAR DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSOR is TOA's third generation of industrial-grade, high-quality digital signal processors. Beginning in 1988 with the groundbreaking introduction of SAORI, followed by the popular DACsys II Series in 1994, TOA was the first manufacturer to introduce the benefits of DSP to the professional audio community. Already recognized for superior sound quality and unmatched reliability, TOA continues to improve and refine the application of DSP for sound systems with the new DP-0206's CLEAR Conversion analog-to-digital technology (Pat. Pending). The DP-0206 is an ideal, cost-effective solution for small and large-scale permanent installation applications including auditoriums, convention centers, educational facilities, houses of worship, performing arts centers, sports facilities and theaters.

The unique, modular design of the DP-0206 allows system designers to specify the most cost-effective configuration for each project. The standard 2-input and 6-output (2x6) configuration is easily expandable to five additional configurations—2x8, 2x10, 4x6, 4x8 and 6x6—via optional analog or digital I/O modules. DP-0206 I/O Modules The DP-0206 combines all the essential audio signal processing functions typically found between mixers and power amplifiers — dynamics control, equalization, crossovers, delays and signal routing—into a single compact and powerful unit. The DP-0206 can be used for loudspeaker management, post-mix processing, room-combining, stereo two, three and four-way crossover with mono sum for subwoofers, driver and cluster alignment, full-range zoning, signal routing, surround sound or any other application requiring precise audio processing tools. Advanced users will especially appreciate the wide variety and quantity of multi-band filtering including parametric, all-pass, notch, high/low pass/shelving, CD horn EQ—any combination of twelve filters on each input and each output.

All processing configurations and parameters for up to thirty DP-0206 units are set with a PC and the intuitive new DACsys 2000 Control Software. You can configure systems off-line at the office, upload to the unit(s) at the job-site, then disconnect the PC and recall different signal flow and parameter settings from sixteen on-board memories. An innovative and time-saving measurement data import function allows audio professionals to tune crossovers and equalize measured speaker system response files exported from SIA Smaart and Goldline TEF software. Comprehensive hardware and software security features such as front panel lock and multi-level password access protect system settings. An optional remote control module allows simple contact-closure activation of memory recall, output volume control and output muting. The DP-0206 is backed with a five-year warranty.

TOA CLEAR CONVERSION TECHNOLOGY

Those familiar with DSP will agree that the method of converting the analog input signal to the digital domain (A/D conversion) is one of the keys to producing great sound. TOA’s newly developed CLEAR* Conversion technology routes low level input signals below a specific threshold through a separate gain stage and a second, separate A/D path. This minimizes unwanted noise (quantization error) produced using conventional, single A/D conversion methods. TOA’s CLEAR Conversion (Pat. Pending) features ultra-smooth cross-fade switching between the two A/D signal paths resulting in greater than 110 dB dynamic range, significantly lower noise and most importantly – clear, transparent, natural-sounding audio.

*Cross-Linked Exact A/D Resolution

EXPANDABLE I/O

Using optional modules, the 2-input/6-output DP-0206 can be easily expanded allowing you to specify the correct number of inputs and outputs for each application.
