First GZ Digital Sound Processor to be launched in December
After intensive development and focused product engineering, Ground Zero will launch it´s first Digital Sound Processor with multifunctional capabilities: The brand new GZCS 6-8DSP. Offering specific OEM upgrade functions, such as six-channel summing on the high level inputs, the main target can be defined in the category of “System integration”. That is where the brand new DSP is positioned. However, the wide range of sound features does allow various Sound Quality (SQ) applications as well.
Besides the 6 channel input, which can be set to low and high level, the GZCS 6-8DSP can connect sources on two further Auxiliary inputs. One is analogue RCA, the other digital SPDIF. Both can be managed individually.
When adjusting the output signal, the DSP offers an high performance 10-band parametric EQ which allows to boost or reduce frequencies from 20Hz – 20KHz, up to +/- 15dB with an adaptable Q-factor from 0.5 –10. Another outstanding part is the integrated Crossover, which offers flexible Low – / High – / Band-Pass filters up to 36dB slope with either Butterworth or Linkwitz-Riley filter characteristic. Last but not least, the time alignment function sets a new benchmark in the market: Its resolution and capability of tuning goes down to a 0,001ms steps which is shorter than 1mm (0.04 inch) in distance. The maximum delay can be set to 22ms which is equivalent to 7,6 meter (299.21 inch).
In order to emphasise easy installation, the product is designed in the smallest possible but massive aluminium heat sink. It does already include an external control unit to call up to 4 presettings as well as managing inputs and volume. GZCS´s Software (Windows XP, 7) is based on an easy to run “1-page GUI” (Graphical User Interface).
The GZCS 6-8DSP will be available by end of December 2013, the recommended retail Price in Europe will at Euro 599.
