The DMM 8008 supports a full matrix mixing mode where inputs may be routed/mixed in any ratio to any output. Each Mic/Line input channel provides Lo/Hi pass 1st order filters, 3-band parametric EQ, Noise Gate function and Gain control. In addition Mic inputs include a Feedback Eliminator function, based on a powerful «Pitch Shifting» algorithm, particularly suitable for voice applications. Automixing function automatically adjusts input level to make operating easier using either NOM (Number of Open Mics) attenuation function or Gain sharing algorithm. In addition Ducking process enforces a «priority order» of open microphones in order that high-priority inputs attenuate lower-priority inputs. Each output offers up to 5-band of parametric equalization, crossover filters, RMS compressor, Peak limiter, Phase and Delay controls; 8 digital In/Out ports are provided for general purpose (preset recall, trigger third parts or device); 8 front knobs provides a quickly way to control input Gain; Up to 32 units can be managed by software applications.
