The DS3008 is designed to provide sound masking, paging and music functions for centralized and networked sound masking systems. Each DS3008 provides four independent sound masking generators, each having 1/3 octave band equalization, adjustable high pass and low pass filters. Additionally, eight balanced line level inputs, eight balanced line level outputs and a matrix mixer facilitate configuring any mix of incoming signals with any of the sound masking generators and then routed to any of the outputs. Input processing includes per channel level control, equalization and configurable soft-knee compression. Output processing includes per channel level control for both analog and network audio. This feature provides unique functionality for use in traditional 70v centralized systems, networked addressable systems, or systems combining both approaches.
ARCHITECTURAL SPECIFCATIONS
The sound masking processor shall be a Dynasound DS3008. The 1 RU DSP 8 x 8 processor shall provide four separate sound masking generators, each having low pass, high pass and 1/3 octave band equalization. The unit shall be equipped with an Ethernet connection (RJ-45) to provide control and monitoring over a standard switched network, or from a single PC. The unit shall provide eight balanced line level inputs for paging and music and shall provide equalization and compression for each input signal. The unit shall provide eight balanced line level outputs and shall incorporate a matrix mixer giving each output (CobraNet and balanced outputs) access to any combination of input signals. The unit shall provide CobraNet capability for all inputs and outputs. Total harmonic distortion 20 Hz- 20kHz shall be less then .01%. Power consumption shall be 2 watts maximum @ 16VAC.
