TC Electronics DB-8/TV Transmission Processor

Description

Consistency in loudness is the single most important audio issue to get right in broadcast. That is the reason why DB-8, around the world, is the most widely used digital transmission processor today. It has set a new standard for real-time loudness control and format conversion, and pioneered support of both analog and digital feeds from one and the same machine.

Both DB-4 and DB-8 employ cutting edge technology to enable stations get rid of listener complaints about jumping levels, and to transmit in analog and digital with optimum processing for both feeds. DB-4 includes the same processing and I/O capabilities as DB-8, except for holding two separate processors, instead of the four inside DB-8. For example, one DB-4 can apply different processing to four mono, two stereo or two 5.1signals, or to a combination such as one stereo and one 5.1 signal.
