Weiss AFI1


NEW!

The MK3 version of the DS1 - a software upgrade for the DS1-MK2
  • Independent parameter control in the two channels

  • M/S mode selectable

  • Sidechain link on / off switchable

  • Peak / RMS sidechain processing

  • 24 Bit POW-R dithering

    • Price for the upgrade (two user installable chips): HKD$4000. Users of the standard DS1 model (i.e. not the MK2) can upgrade by swapping the DSP board of their DS1 for a new one. This can easily be done by the customer. The upgrade price DS1 to DS1-Mk3 is HKD$27,000.



    1) Before the upgrade


    2) Weiss provides a very nice tool for removing the existing chipsets


    3) The MK2->MK3 upgrade chipsets


    4) Open the box and see the AD Sharc DSPs




    5) Replace the IC201 / IC202


    6) Upgrade finished Now the software is DSP Code & OS Version V3.0

    I still have not dig very deep into this unit, however I NEVER experience such transparent M/S compression! I did have several best M/S compressors and encoder/decoder on hand. I especially like to see the L/R individual input/output meters!!


    More review will come soon.
