My application is LX521, it requires the following functions:
- 8 channel analog output
- DSP that supports at least 6 PEQs (inc. shelving filters) per channel
- Basic matrix routing (I just need to copy 2 inputs onto 8 outputs)
- Digital input via coax or optical SPDIF/AES
- The DSP must happen in the device, it must work with no computer connected
- Bonus points for volume control (one knob to control all outputs at once)
I currently use miniDSP 4x10 and it checks the list. however I'm not happy with the functionality and reliability of this unit, and looking for replacement.
There are several device types that can do this job, and they include audio interfaces, loudspeaker management, generic DSPs, matrix mixers and more.
Unfortunately this is a tedious search as I have to read the entire operating manual to determine if device X can do the job. I always find some arbitrary software limitation that breaks my application.
I'm looking for recommendations for such a device. bonus points if you actually run 4-way speaker from it, even more so if it's LX521.
ps. my current preferred candidate is Xilica XD-4080, looks like it does all the DSP I need and only lacks volume control. happy to learn of more options.
Thanks.
