The Cobalt® 9934-AUD-PRO-DSP 3G/HD/SD-SDI Advanced Audio Processor with DSP Audio Options Support and Full Embed/De-Embed provides a DSP-based platform that supports multiple audio DSP options. When optioned with various diverse audio processing options, the DSP-based processing core (which supports numerous simultaneous processing engines) uses license “credits” which allows flexible tailoring of multiple proc function instances. In this manner, the 9934-AUD-PRO-DSP provides much more flexibility than other audio processors that used fixed processing assets (for example, this flexibility allows “trading” credits for more Dolby encoders while backing out of loudness processors or other engine assets).
Audio proc options include Dolby® Real-Time Loudness Leveling automatic loudness processing, Dolby® encode/decode, and Linear Acoustic® UPMAX™ automatic upmixing. +DSP options can be ordered with new-card purchase, or field-installed as software option upgrades without removing the card from its frame. Included as standard features are downmixing, flex mixing, and full AES and balanced analog audio embed/de-embed.
Also included standard is bulk and per-channel audio delay controls that easily address lip-sync issues. Option +TTS provides high-quality Text-To-Speech synthesis, directly converting EAS text to digital audio speech with no baseband signal breakouts or add-ons. The 9934-AUD-PRO-DSP is available with numerous options that expand its function well beyond audio DSP and embed/de-embed to maximize frame processing density and system economy.
Quality Check option +QC allows failover to alternate inputs or other actions based on user-configurable criteria such as black/frozen frame, audio silence or CC absence. The 9934-AUD-PRO-DSP also provides analog CVBS video inputs and outputs, and analog audio embedding and de-embedding.
Preset save/load allows saving custom card settings while allowing one-button revert to factory settings. Layered presets allow invoking changes related only to a specific area of concern (audio routing, for example) while not changing any other processing settings or aspects. Full user DashBoard™ or Remote Control Panel remote control allows full status and control access locally or across a standard Ethernet network. GPIO allows direct input routing control and status monitoring.
