miniDSP steps into mobile audio
- Details
Introducing the C-DSP 6x8, a new DSP platform targetting Mobile/Car audio installation. With our platforms being already used by many DIYers, the C-DSP 6x8 is what many of you asked for: A cost effective and reliable all-in-one car audio processor.
On the hardware side, the audio configuration of 6 x inputs (analog and digital) by 8 x outputs is perfect for multi-way setups. Don’t be fooled by its size or its price, this small enclosure packs high quality converters and enough DSP power to make your audio tweaking dreams come true. On the software side, the software application allows real time control of the unit via its driverless USB interface. The onboard microSD card slot supports offline configuration and firmware updates if you ever miss your laptop. Finally, the C-DSP 6x8 will follow in the footsteps of our product line with constant upgrades via new plug-ins and new features. Stay tuned for an exciting new ride!
The C-DSP 6x8 is now available on our webshop for 275USD and through our dealer network immediately. Check out our product page for more info.
DDRC-88A makes Dirac Live multichannel easy
- Details
The DDRC-88A is the latest addition to miniDSP's Dirac Live® series. With its ability to process up to 8channel of room correction, it is the perfect fit to retrofit existing Home Theater applications (5.1/7.1) with premiere room correction. The platform can also be used for multiroom solutions as illustrated in our application note.
By simply inserting the miniDSP Dirac Series audio processor in the analog signal chain and utilizing the customized Dirac Live Calibration Tool together with the included UMIK-1 microphone, users can perform multi-point measurements in the listening room using a series of visuals for microphone placement. In-room target curves can be designed and an optimized set of digital room correction filters can be generated and loaded back into the audio processor.
By independently correcting in time as well as frequency domains, miniDSP Dirac Series audio processors affect the impulse response enabling improved imaging and clarity, tighter bass and reduction of room resonances, elimination of early reflections, and reduced listening fatigue. Just measure, compute and disconnect this out of the box room correction solution.
The DDRC-88A (analog input/output) is now available on our webshop and through our dealer network immediately. Check out our product page for more info.

Introducing nanoAVR-DL with Dirac Live
- Details
Introducing the nanoAVR-DL, the latest brainchild from miniDSP to offer the world renowned Dirac Live® room correction algorithm. This palm size HDMI audio processor easily integrates with existing home theater systems when inserted into the HDMI signal path between an HDMI source and an AV receiver. It operates on eight channels of linear PCM audio while passing the video signal through untouched.
The user-friendly Dirac Live® Calibration Tool Multi-channel for miniDSP guides the user through the steps needed to perform a set of multi-point measurements in a home theater with up to 7.1 channels. Users can make arbitrary adjustments to the target response curve, individually or in groups, and also define the frequency range of correction. Up to four generated filter sets can be stored in the nanoAVR-DL for recall via infrared remote control or through an Android mobile application.
Dirac Live® employs a proprietary mixed-phase filtering scheme – filters that both match a desired magnitude response as well as generate a customized impulse response. The audible results from deploying Dirac Live® are remarkable: improved imaging and soundstage; greater clarity of vocals and dialog; smoother and more impactful bass; heightened realism. Simply put: a more exciting home theater experience!
