Eventide DSP4000B+

Complex Broadcast and post-production effects made easy, featuring 385 ready-to-use preset-algorithms and 4X the power of the 4000B. The Eventide DSP4000B+ comes standard with analog and digital inputs and outputs. The digital I/O provides full 24-bit AES/EBU and S/PDIF for an all-digital signal path along with simultaneous XLR-type analog inputs and outputs. Optimal audio quality is assured via 24-bit A/D and D/A converters. Audio bandwidth at the analog connectors is up to 22kHz, with 44kHz (at 96K sampling) also available for most presets. Its remote control interfaces include MIDI In/Out/Thru jacks and a serial port. The serial port can also be used with the powerful VSIGfile program editor, or connected to a PC for available operating system upgrades over the internet. (Want sampling to further extend the capabilities of the DSP4000B+? Take a look at the DSP7500!) Although we've emphasized the DSP4000B+'s many programmed production effects, there's a whole other side to the unit, which will be of special interest to advanced "effects explorers." Unlike conventional audio processing units which contain a limited number of fixed digital processing algorithms, the factory programs of the DSP4000B draw on over 200 internal effects modules to create a wider variety of truly distinct programs than ever before possible. What's more, the unit's object-oriented Algorithm Construction Kit patch editor function lets users (and third-party developers) build totally new effects algorithms by linking modular effects "building blocks" which are presented on the large, graphics LCD screen. With the DSP4000B+, there are always new effects avenues to explore, new sounds to create.
