- Up to 48 dB/Oct 4 Crossovers;
- Dynamics control and noise gate per output;
- Included Digital Input AES/EBU or S/PDIF (32-96kHz).
The NEXT LMS240i loudspeaker management system has 2 inputs and 4 outputs,
completely configurable by the user. It has been designed to perform like:
- A complete 3 and/or 4 ways PA mono processor (global equalization, delay
unit, crossover, individual equalization, limiter / compressor and an
independent noise gate per way).
- A complete 3 ways PA mono processor with sub-bass output through Aux
send;
- 2-ways stereo processor;
- 2-ways stereo processor with mono sub-bass + Aux;
- 4 outputs distribution system with different equalization, delay and levels;
- Stereo paragraphic equalizer;
- Stereo delay line with equalization;
- Stereo compressor/limiter.
Two 32 bits floating point DSPs (Digital Signal Processors) with 40 bits of internal
resolution are included in the LMS240i processor. They can develop up to 120 million
mathematic operations per seconds. All this calculating power is used in the signal processing
algorithms which controls all the process: input delays, global equalization, crossover filters,
individual equalization for each way, output delays, protections and dynamic control and
independent noise gate per output. All of these algorithms have been developed to provide the
best precision and the lowest round-off noise in the calculations. This way, the best sound
fidelity and transparency free of noise is achieved. The CRYSTAL AD and DA converters are
24bit with a dynamic range of 117dB. This guaranties a clean and distortion free sound with a
