Brax DSP Silver High-End Audio Processor - Silver Finish

BRAX DSP Silver has gone through the longest and most intensive development process in the history of Audiotec Fischer. Anticipated by many customers around the world, it is announced with pride as the most advanced digital signal processor that, without a doubt, redefines both sound quality and its functionality. It is not only the first DSP on the market that deserves to bear the famous BRAX logo, but it also elevates the standard of performance to an unparalleled level. Audiotec Fischer spared no effort to push every single detail of this technological masterpiece to the extremes. The "heart" is composed of no fewer than three of the most advanced 64-bit fixed-point Sigma350 series audio DSPs with incredible processing power of 3.6 billion MAC operations per second. This allows the entire system to run at a native sampling frequency of 192 kHz, extending the audio frequency range to 80 kHz. Signal conversion is handled by Asahi Kasei's finest A/D and D/A converters with specifications beyond imagination.

Enormous care was taken in the design of the power supply, which is the essential foundation for perfect sound quality. A series of fifty-five voltage regulators cleans and stabilizes all power supply voltages for every single stage separately. A new high-performance 32-bit CoProcessor (ACO) supervises every operation and ensures faster communication with the DSP PC-Tool software and the optional DIRECTOR remote control. But beyond all its technical merits, BRAX DSP marks the beginning of a new era also in terms of connectivity. Its exclusive modular concept allows you to configure analog, digital or a mix of analog and digital inputs and outputs. It is difficult to imagine that with this flexibility the BRAX DSP is not capable of supporting every type of system configuration, neither today nor in the future. The "total work of art" is completed by a mechanical concept that gives the impression of immortality at first glance.

Note on DSP Price

The DSP price displayed is indicative and may vary based on the configuration chosen. Before proceeding with the purchase, you must fill out the configuration form to be requested via email: informazioni@rgsound.it. Once we receive the email with the completed form, we will send you the correct price.

The manufacturer has decided to adopt this method to offer a product that best meets the specific needs of the customer. It is not "mandatory" to insert all input and output modules: you can save by choosing only those actually necessary, while the complete configuration entails a higher cost. As standard, the product includes only one standard digital input module, so you can choose not to select further modules if an analog input is not required. As for output modules, on the other hand, none are included and it is necessary to select at least one to proceed with the order. Additionally, you can choose different chips for the output modules.
