BA-1616-DAP
Digital Audio Processor
16 × 16 Analog • Dante 64 × 64 • SHARC DSP • 24-bit / 48 kHz
The BA-1616-DAP is a freely designable audio processing and control system with an open software architecture. It offers 16 analog inputs and outputs, 64 × 64 Dante network audio channels (128 in total) and a front-panel HD colour screen that shows the unit’s working status. A wide range of DSP processing modules lets it solve real-world problems in theatres, conference centres, stadiums, places of worship and public sound reinforcement, with high-bandwidth, low- latency network audio at low cost.
