VERSADRIVE SC-48 FIR
Think Dif FIR ently
VERSADRIVE SC-48 FIR is a 4-in / 8-out signal processor from our VERSADRIVE Series — engineered to deliver advanced tuning, routing and FIR-based optimisation for large-scale live and installation systems.
Equipped with high-resolution 24-bit / 96 kHz AD/DA converters, SC-48 FIR combines powerful DSP processing with FIR filtering technology, enabling independent control over magnitude and phase for more precise equalisation, improved frequency response and enhanced power consistency across the system.
With four input channels and eight fully routable outputs, it offers comprehensive matrix flexibility for complex PA configurations. Each output includes RMS compressors and peak limiters, ensuring robust loudspeaker protection and stable long-term performance.
Connectivity options include USB, RS232, RS485 and Ethernet (RJ45), providing full remote PC control via the included software — ideal for both touring engineers and fixed venue installations. AES digital inputs ensure seamless integration with digital audio systems, while password protection secures settings in permanent installs.
With FIR precision, comprehensive preset library, extensive routing capabilities and advanced protection tools, VERSADRIVE SC-48 FIR sets the standard for high-end system control and optimisation.
