FDS-366T
4.0 Introduction
Introducing the BSS Audio FDS-366T Omndrive Compact Plus, an incredibly
powerful loudspeaker management system in only 1U of rackspace! Based on
BSS Audio's many years of experience building analogue processing devices
for the live sound and installed markets, the FDS-366T Omnidrive is an 'all in
one' solution for system crossover assignment, EQ, delay and dynamics
control.
Processing power
Using custom designed digital signal processing (DSP) technologies BSS Audio
are able to deliver far more capabilities in one box than was realisable from a
whole rack of analogue equipment only a few years ago. Also as all the
processing on the audio signal is kept in the digital domain added noise and
phase anomalies usually expected with analogue equivalents are virtually
eliminated. The signals are processed at 24bit, 96kHz resolution to achieve a
dynamic range greater than 112dB to ensure the best possible audio quality for
your system.
Security
Moreover, the comprehensive security features included in the FDS-366T
enable the unit to be set up with varying degrees of access to its functionality
applied and protected by passwords. Indeed the whole unit can be locked
totally to prevent tampering, in installed applications for example.
Routing
An arrangement of 3 inputs and 6 outputs and an additional internal sum of
inputs A&B, A+B+C, pre or post input EQ can be matrixed in various
combinations to provide a complete loudspeaker management system with
integral crossovers, delays, dynamic EQ, and protection limiters.
Applications
The flexibility of the FDS-366T enables it to be employed for many system
uses, such as complete 3 way stereo setups or a 2 way LCR combination.
Equally FDS-366T Omnidrives can be stacked to run larger 5 and 6 way
systems and more.
In stage monitor systems the FDS-366T can function as a triple bi-amp
crossover with delay, limiters and EQ. On-stage 'hotspots' caused by monitors
with identical signals can be eliminated by applying small delays between
wedges.
Furthermore, the FDS-366T can function as a distribution unit to multizone
systems where crossovers may be passive or local to the loudspeaker. In this
case, the provision of delays and EQ can radically enhance such a system
while reducing both processing costs and required rack space.
Upgradeable operating system
The system operating software is held in flash EPROM, which means that
upgrading to new software is easy - either via PC card or from a PC via the
MIDI or RS-232 ports.
Memorising Setups
60 internal program locations are available to the user for storing system
setups, which may be generic system programs or complete venue settings.
These memories may be stored onto a PC card for backup or archiving.
