MINIDSP Adept ADC & Phono Preamp Review

[stefanovesa]

Do you think minidsp will enable running a dsp for denoising (clicks and pops) directly on the adept?

AFAIK this is not possible in real time. A software needs to analize the track, then can do such task.

The feature is not integrated for the time being.

Why not ask MiniDSP? Who else should know

@stefanovesa
Indeed, such devices exist: Sweetvinyl and Waxwing

@DrCWO
Someone already asked, in the minidsp forum. No answer so far afaik

Only miniDSP knows, and they won't tell you unless it's released.

I sent some questions to minidsp support and here are their responses, including if they plan on adding DSP:

Why was minimum phase chosen for the digital filter?
Ans : Reduce the effect concerning delay and response frequency.

Will the choice of digital filter ever be able to be set by the user?
Ans: It is feasible, but it is not currently part of our plan, as there have been no user requests for it, and considerable development time will be necessary to integrate it into software control.

Do you have any plans to add DSP features to the Adept such as parametric EQ, mono playback, click removal, or de-noising?
And: "There are no plans at this moment, but that would be a good suggestion."

Hello
Yesterday I asked minidsp about the plans for adding such a dsp functionality and the answer was: "Such feature however would indeed require some custom DSP processing so not trivial. "

Thanks for sharing, I'm interested to the question about the digital filter. Which is the impact of using different filters with ADC ?
