🧠 DSP, Processing & Effects
• DSP Engine: 40‑bit floating point digital signal processing, high internal headroom, efficient for live or studio work.
• Effects Engines: 4 × true‑stereo FX engines (reverb, delay, modulation, dynamics, etc.) built‑in — often compared to what’s found on larger consoles.
• Channel Processing: Each input has full processing: low‑cut filter, 4-band parametric EQ, compressor, gate, dynamics, etc.
• Buses / Routing: 6 aux buses + main LR bus + FX returns — flexible routing, monitor mixes, main mix, sub‑mix etc.
• EQ / Output Processing: Output buses (and aux) have selectable 6‑band parametric EQ or 31‑band graphic EQ, plus full bus processing (inserts, dynamics, EQ).
