Peavey Architectural Acoustics Digitool multiprocessors
The new DigitoolA® digital audio processors from PeaveyA® Architectural AcousticsA® bring world-class NWareâ„¢ processing and network control to mid-market contractor and live sound reinforcement applications.
The new Digitool Series is a trio of multi-channel, full featured, digital audio processing and control systems—the Digitool MX16, Digitool MX32 and Digitool Live—that provide stand-alone or network-based audio control in 8×8 or 16×16 I/O formats. The new Digitool processors can be networked with NWare, the proprietary programming and control application of the renowned Peavey MediaMatrixA® DSP system. The new Digitool models share a common processing platform with the Peavey MediaMatrix NIONA® processor, providing ample headroom for running the commercial audio market’s leading processing algorithms on an economical and efficient subset of Peavey’s market-leading technology.
Equipped with power and pedigree, the new Digitool models represent the new breed of state-of-the-art digital signal processing. The Digitool MX16 features eight inputs and eight outputs;the Digitool MX32 features 16 inputs and 16 outputs; and the Digitool LIVE features eight balanced XLR inputs and outputs for live-sound FOH applications. These all-new Digitool processors feature afull-color LCD display on the front panel, enhanced front-panel navigation, individual input and output mutes, and five-segment LED arrays for input and output signal monitoring. The entire system may also be configured and controlled via a dedicated NWare-based GUI running on an external PC.
All three Digitool models feature a front-panel USB port that makes interfacing with a PC for software updates quick and easy. The rear panel includes an Ethernet port for programming or connecting to a network; eight control voltage ports; and two RS-485 ports, allowing for a wide variety of external control. All three models also include a globally compatible 100-240V power supply.
