Detailed Description DM88
DM88 is a system processor in the NST Audio DSP system range, with 8 analog inputs and 8 analog outputs. It combines 16 × 16 Dante / AES67 and 8-channel AES3 I/O with onboard signal processing for routing, system management and loudspeaker applications.
Processing includes equalization, delay, gain and output limiting, with functions and filter resources specific to the model. DM88 adds flexible input / output processing, source-format conversion and three-level failover for backup sources. The technical table distinguishes physical I/O, network-audio channels and processing resources.
D-Net provides device setup, routing, monitoring and preset management over a suitable network. Compatible venue controls can provide restricted day-to-day system access after configuration. The platform supports professional installations and live sound systems where repeatable routing and loudspeaker processing are required.
