DTP CrossPoint 84 Series Matrix Switchers • Introduction 7
DSP Configurator Software — A powerful yet user-friendly PC-based software tool for
managing all audio operations of the DTP CrossPoint 84. It enables complete setup and
configuration of digital audio processing tools on the DSP platform, as well as routing and
mixing.
Group masters — The DTP CrossPoint 84 provides the capability to consolidate gain or
mute control throughout the system. Gain or mute controls can be selected and added to a
group master, which can then be controlled by a single master fader or mute control. Up to
32 group masters can be created.
Soft limits provide optimal group master adjustment range — The group master
volume range can be limited using soft limits to maintain optimal minimum and maximum
levels when using external volume control. This prevents operators from over or under-
adjusting levels when using Ethernet, USB, or RS-232 control. The DSP Configurator
Software provides quick drag-and-drop adjustment of soft limits from the Group Controls
screen.
32 DSP Configurator presets — Using the DSP Configurator Software, any or all
parameters for DSP processing, levels, AV matrix switching ties, and audio matrix mixing
can be saved as presets.
Flexible matrix design provides output, virtual, and expansion routing options —
The DSP architecture of the DTP CrossPoint 84 employs an intuitive matrix design that
offers substantial flexibility in routing, mixing, and processing audio input sources. An output
matrix allows any of the four microphone inputs to be matrix mixed to any or all of the four
stereo outputs of the AV switcher block. If desired, any of the microphone inputs or AV
switcher outputs can first be directed into a virtual matrix, which routes the inputs to eight
virtual buses, before being mixed back into the output matrix. Virtual buses allow inputs to
be processed together as a group. The expansion matrix provides signal routing between
the DTP CrossPoint 84 and a DMP 128 processor linked via the expansion port.
Building Blocks processor settings — A collection of pre-designed processor settings
optimized for a specific type of input or output device, such as microphones and Extron
speakers, with preset levels, filters, dynamics, and more. Flexible Building Blocks are
available on each I/O strip and allow system designers to fully customize and save their own
Building Blocks, further streamlining audio system design and integration.
(SA and MA models) Energy efficient Class D stereo or mono amplifier:
• 2 x 50 watts @ 4 ohms; 2 x 25 watts @ 8 ohms
• 1 x 100 watts @ 70 volts — The DTP CrossPoint 84 SA offers a stereo power amplifier
with 50 watts per channel into 4 ohms and 25 watts per channel into 8 ohms, while the
DTP CrossPoint 84 MA 70 offers a mono 70 volt power amplifier with 100 watts rms
output. Both feature an Extron exclusive, highly efficient, advanced Class D amplifier
design with CDRS - Class D Ripple Suppression, an Extron patented technology that
provides a smooth, clean audio waveform and an improvement in signal fidelity over
conventional Class D amplifier designs. CDRS eliminates the high frequency switching
ripple characteristic of Class D amplifiers, a source of RF emissions which can interfere
with sensitive AV equipment such as wireless microphones.
Supports HDMI specification — Includes data rates up to 10.2 Gbps, Deep Color up to
12-bit, 3D, and HD lossless audio formats.
HDCP compliant — Fully supports HDCP-encrypted sources, with selectable authorization
for unencrypted content.
Key Minder continuously verifies HDCP compliance for quick, reliable switching —
Key Minder authenticates and maintains continuous HDCP encryption between input and
output devices to ensure quick and reliable switching in professional AV environments, while
enabling simultaneous distribution of a single source signal to one or more displays.
