About this deal

The miniDSP Flex is the 3rd generation of our popular line of compact 2-in, 4-out audio processors. It retains the powerful floating point processor but rethinks the I/O architecture so we can provide our customers with different input-output versions in this compact chassis. The initial versions are single-ended analog I/O (RCA), balanced analog I/O (TRS) and digital out with superb audiophile specification for your enjoyment. So unlike many AV products that resample everything to 48 kHz, here we have end to end sample rate of 96 kHz (my guess). Bandwidth is in excess of 35 kHz.

What a nice combination of functionality, usability and performance! As with many DAC companies, it is clearly Minidsp has put strong focus on chasing away sources of noise and distortion. Yes, there is some work left to do with intermodulation distortion but other than that, measurement after measurement put a smile on my face. All AV processor and receiver companies lose any excuses they have for not providing this level of performance seeing how the Flex also implements various signal processing modules.

From small to large companies, from amateur to expert, we answer your audio processing needs with our Digital Signal Processors (DSP). The Streaming HD (SHD) series provides an All in One Audiophile experience at the center stage of your audio system. With in-house engineering and manufacturing, we're at the digital audio forefront and keep growing our large community. For stereo system (e.g. 2ch dirac live, single speaker measurement), use the 0deg file and point the UMIK-1 at the speakers

The UMIK-2 is a calibrated USB measurement microphone with 32bit/44.1~192kHz internal converters and interchangeable 1/2" low noise floor capsules. The SHD has extensive connectivity options. Three digital inputs, two analog inputs and USB Audio enable the SHD to fit right into any modern audio system. The four-channel DSP-controlled outputs are available as single-ended (RCA) and balanced (XLR) analog as well as SPDIF digital. The miniDSP SHD Audio-Streamer is a high-end signal audio processor offering user-friendly DSP solutions, DiracLive® audio calibration, and an embedded network audio streamer. With Roon streaming technology and a certified Roon Ready network player, it ensures a remarkable user interface, reliable performance, and uncompromising audio quality. For stereo system (e.g. 2ch dirac live, single speaker measurement), use the 0deg file and point the UMIK-2 at the speakers In this app note, we will demonstrate subwoofer integration for miniDSP'sstereoDirac Live processors using only the Dirac Live app for measurementPowered by miniDSP's new Device Console for Over The Air upgrades, Live Real Time control of DSP settings Can I use the digital SPDIF output from Digital Out 1&2 into a DAC and use the built in analog Out3 for the sub at the same time? Digital crossovers – the DSP splits the signal into multiple frequency bands to feed amps for each speaker driver (tweeter, midrange, woofer) In this application note, we will show you how to design an active 2-way loudspeaker with the miniDSP 2x4 HD/Flex. Using the 2x4 HD/Flex, you can either create a conventional (Linkwitz-Riley or Butterworth) crossover, or a linear phase crossover. miniDSP is proud to introduce the SHD (“Streaming High Definition”) digital audio processor incorporating Dirac Live®, the world’s premier room correction solution. A natural evolution and extension of our considerable experience with Dirac Live implementation, the miniDSP SHD heralds a new era in affordable yet powerful DSP-based network streamers.

miniDSP products are audio processors, with two or more audio input channels and two or more audio output channels. Inputs and outputs might be digital or analog, depending on the specific product. Typical applications include: I alternated between Coax S/PDIF input and USB although performance is the same in both. Here is our dashboard: The UMIK-1 is an omni-directional USB measurement microphone providing Plug & Play acoustic measurement. From speaker & room acoustic measurement to recording, this microphone provides low noise and accurate results you can rely on. Forget about driver installation, OS compatibility and un-calibrated mics. The Umik-1 is a USB Audio class 1 device automatically recognized by all Operating Systems (Windows/Mac) and Ipad with Camera Connection Kit. It is provided with a unique calibration file based on the serial number to insure an accurate measurement. Combined with our recommended acoustic measurement software, it is the perfect match for a plug&play measurement system. Features

With multiple digital inputs and eight unbalanced analog output channels, the miniDSP Flex Eight can implement active speakers up to stereo four-way. Flexible 2x8 signal routing supports many other configurations such as two-way, three-way and multiple subwoofers. As always, a full suite of miniDSP’s tried and proven audio processing functionality is included: FIR filters and parametric EQ on the input channels, and parametric EQ, crossovers, advanced biquad programming and delay on each output channel.
