DS2416 Q&A (Questions & Answers) 13 DS2416 Q&A (Questions & Answers) Q What's a DSP? A A DSP, or Digital Signal Processor is a processor optimized for real-time digital data processing. The DS2416 features the same DSP as the Yamaha 02R and 03D digital mixing consoles and ProR3 and REV500 effects processors. Q At what wordlength is digital audio processed? A The EQ features a 44-bit data path, 32-bit coefficient, and 54-bit accumulator. All other mixer sections feature a 32-bit data path, 24-bit coefficient, and 42-bit accumulator. Q Does the DS2416 have any onboard memory? A Yes, 3 megabytes, which is used for input, and effects delays. Q What is the available recording time? A This depends on the software, selected wordlength, and hard disk space. In general, two channels of 16-bit digital audio use 10.6 MB/min. Q How do I synchronize the DS2416 to MIDI Clock, MTC, or SMPTE timecode? A If the software and timecode interface support external timecode, so does the DS2416. Q Can DS2416 mixer functions be controlled via MIDI? A If the controlling software supports this, yes. Q How good are the onboard effects processors? A As good as those used in the Yamaha ProR3 and REV500 effects processors. Q Can the DS2416 be used simultaneously with a Sound Blaster or Korg 1212 I/O card? A Yes. DS2416-Owner's Manual
