The DSP·FX Processor Card implements high quality audio effects using traditional analog and digital signal connectors. It combines the real time signal I/O capabilities of dedicated rack-mount effects processing systems with the innovative PC based DSP·FX graphical interface. Like the DSP·FX Virtual Pack, it uses 32 bit floating point processing for all internal operations and storage. This allows the quality of the effects implemented with the DSP·FX system to exceed the quality of even the best rack-mount effects processing equipment.
