.4 DSP module
4.1 Input Setting
The input signal can be an analog signal or a test signal generated inside the device. If it is a network version with
Dante, it can also be a network digital signal;
The analog signal can be selected by adjusting the sensitivity to adjust the input; from -60~0, every 3dB;
Mute: the channel is muted when selected;

Invert: The signal phase is processed by 180 degrees.
Phantom power supply: used for condenser microphone power supply, please do not turn on line input or
non-condenser microphone to prevent burnt;
Test signal: including sine, pink, and white noise. Enabling the test signal system will automatically shield the analog
input signal;
4.2 Expander
The Expander is a dynamic range of input that increases according to the user's requirements.
When the input signal is less than "threshold", the expander compresses the input signal according to the set "ratio",
output level = threshold-(threshold-input level)/ratio; when the input signal is greater than "threshold", then According
to 1:1 output, output level = input level.
Pass-through/Enable: Whether the extender is valid.
Ratio: The number of decibels that the expander input signal changes dynamically/the number of decibels that the
expander output signal changes dynamically.
Start-up time: the time required for an input signal less than the "threshold" of the expander to enter the expanded
state to output according to the set expansion ratio.
Recovery time: The time required for the input signal to return from the expanded state to the original non-expanded
state.

4.3 Compressor
The compressor is used to reduce the dynamic range of the signal above a user-defined threshold. The signal level
below the threshold remains unchanged.
Threshold: When the signal level is higher than the threshold, the gain will be reduced. This point is the inflection point
in the input/output curve. For peak stop, the threshold that needs to be stopped is just below the peak level.
Ratio: The compression ratio of input and output.
Start-up time: Start with the gain of the compressor to reduce the processing speed. The shorter the start-up time, the
greater the instantaneous change of the signal, and the short-term gain attenuation makes the hearing unsuitable.
Release time: The release time determines the gain change from moment to moment of the compressor. The quick
release time increases the subjective level, while the slow release time is more useful to keep it under control.
Output fader: The fader can control the output gain of the module. If the compressor reduces the signal level
significantly, the output gain boost may need to maintain the perceived volume.

4.4 Equalizer
Parameter equalization
Pass-through/enable: Whether the equalizer is valid.
Band Pass-through/enable: Whether the section equalizer is valid.
Center frequency: the center frequency that needs to be equalized.
Gain: Gain/attenuation value at the frequency center point.
Bandwidth: the influence range of this segment around the center frequency. The larger the value, the larger the
bandwidth and the larger the influence range.
Graphic equalization
The gain of the 31 band frequency points can be adjusted separately to achieve the purpose of strengthening or
weakening some frequency points and achieve different effects.
Pass-through/Enable: Enable and disable the equalizer.
Gain: The gain/attenuation of the frequency center point.
Flat: Restore all frequency band gains to 0dB state.
Narrowband: A kind of bandwidth, the bandwidth is lower than the ordinary bandwidth.
Normal: Common bandwidth.
Broadband: The largest bandwidth.

4.5 Auto gain
The purpose of automatic gain control is to achieve the target level of signals with uncertain levels while maintaining
the dynamic range of the volume.
Typical usage scenarios: For example, when the user is speaking in front of the microphone, the distance between
the mouth and the microphone may be too far and near, which causes the output volume to fluctuate and even feel
intermittent in speech. Automatic gain is to set the threshold, output the input signal below the threshold in a ratio of
1:1, and directly increase the level above the threshold according to the ratio. After setting the target level, the sound
signal can be output stably.
Threshold: When the signal level is lower than the threshold, the input/output ratio is 1:1. When the signal level is
higher than the threshold, input/output = ratio. Set this threshold level slightly higher than the noise ratio of your input
signal.
Target threshold: the required output signal level.
Automatic gain control is to automatically control the amplitude of the gain by changing the input and output
compression ratio. When a weak signal is input, the signal is amplified to ensure the strength of the output sound
signal; when the input signal strength reaches a certain level, the signal is compressed to reduce the sound output
amplitude.

4.6 Auto Mixer
The automatic mixer is mainly used to automatically control how the traditional mixer has a large amount of voice input
to output the desired result. Consider a typical conference room scene. There are ten participants, each with a
microphone. If ten microphones are turned on at the same time, only one person is talking, then the output effect is
definitely not ideal, because the other nine microphones pick up Sound insulation of the room, reverberation, etc., will
reduce the output effect of the entire system.
Each channel of the automatic mixer has an input, a gain level meter and an automatic gain, channel fader, priority,
and channel mute.
Channel control Each channel has an "auto" button, press to add this channel to the automatic mixing.
The channel mute and fader are both automatic gain type. To mute a signal and prevent the signal from entering the
automatic mixing, please turn on "Mute" and cancel "Auto". The channel fader controls the mixing level and direct
output level of the channel.
Priority control PR: Allows channels with higher priority to surpass channels with lower priority, thereby affecting the
automatic mixing algorithm.
The control defines the priority with a value between 0 (lowest priority) and 10 (highest priority), and the default value
is 5 (standard priority).
If the priority of all channels is equal, set the priority of all channels to 5.

4.7 Auto Mixing/AFC/AEC/ANC
Feedback: Select the signal to be processed by the feedback canceller, and select the output channel of the
processed signal in the mixer.
Auto mix: Mix the signal of the selected input channel to the corresponding output channel.
AM: Signal processed by the automatic mixer
AFC: Signal processed by feedback canceller
AEC: Signal processed by echo canceller
ANC: Signal processed by noise canceller
4.8 Delayer
The time interval between the signal input to the output processor.Generally used to produce reverberation or echo
and other effects, can also be used for the use of large auxiliary speaker processing.

4.9 Frequency Divider
High frequency pass/enable: enable and disable the high pass filter.
Low frequency pass/enable: enable and disable the low pass filter.
High-pass frequency: the cut-off frequency of high-pass filtering.
Low-pass frequency: the cut-off frequency of low-pass filtering.
4.10 Limiter
Through/Enable: Enable or disable the limiter.
Threshold: the starting level of the limiter. When the signal is higher than this limit value, the limiter processing module
is started.
Recovery time: When the input signal is lower than this setting value, the sound channel will not be closed immediately,
and the closing time will be delayed according to this setting value. During this time, as long as there is a signal higher
than the "threshold" limit value, the sound channel can continue to be turned on.
Compression: The difference between the signal processed by the limiter and the input signal.
4.11 Output Setting
You can set the output to mute and invert.
