About Ashly NE24.24M

After extensive research and development, the Ashly Protea NE 24.24M DSP 16-Input x 8-Output Audio Matrix Processor emerges as a sophisticated and innovative solution for professional audio needs. This advanced audio matrix processor is perfect for designing or installing high-quality sound systems in corporate boardrooms, restaurants, courtrooms, and houses of worship.

With its high frequency response of 20Hz-20kHz, the Protea NE 24.24M DSP ensures clear, detailed sound across a wide range of audio signals. This makes it an ideal choice for left/center/right high output speaker systems in performance spaces, auditoriums, or conference centers.

The Protea NE 24.24M DSP is more than just a processor; it's a comprehensive solution for any zoned system. It simplifies the process of input/output matrixing with signal processing, thanks to the user-friendly Protea ne Software. This software allows for easy programming of channels on your PC, making the setup process a breeze.

The base unit of the Protea NE 24.24M DSP offers a 16-input/8-output configuration. However, its modular expansion cards provide up to 24-channels of audio matrixing and processing. Each input and output expansion card comes with an individual DSP processor, allowing for an expansion of the total input or output by 4 channels of DSP processing at a time.

These cards can be easily installed in the field without the need to reprogram the device, offering flexibility and convenience. The matrixing feature allows you to route any input to any output and control individual levels once they have been assigned. With its fixed path architecture and extensive processing power per channel, the Protea NE 24.24M DSP significantly reduces the amount of time it takes to set up your system.

In conclusion, the Ashly Protea NE 24.24M DSP 16-Input x 8-Output Audio Matrix Processor is a professional, high-quality, and innovative solution for all your audio processing needs.
