About Audessence ProCoder-3

The Audessence PROCODER-3 Audio Processor, Stereo Encoder and RDS Encoder for FM (TCP/IP Connectivity) in the 'Transparent mode' offers brick-wall peak limiting without disturbing sonic signature. Features automatic silence detect and fall-back to secondary audio source. Comes with composite clipper for 'last ounce' loudness with perfect pilot and subcarrier protection. Overshoot compensated 15.5kHz low-pass filters. The advanced AGC as used in ALPS levelers offers unsurpassed, rapid control of levels. Presence enhancer to brighten program if used without multiband pre-processing. It also features Very low audio latency (7 milliseconds) and very fast boot-up (<1 second). The factory presets deliver exactly the results you need for any application. It is an Integral fully-featured RDS encoder.
