6. CONFIGURATIONS OF THE DSP 244
The DSP 244 offers 7 pre-defined configurations. A configuration is a basic setting that includes the routing
of inputs and outputs, the function of the outputs (Sub, Lo, Mid, Hi, Fullrange), as well as the kind and
amount of parameters. These 7 configurations are:
- Stereo 2 Way
- Stereo 2 Way / Mono Sub + Fullrange
- 3 Way + Fullrange
- 3 Way / Mono Sub + Fullrange
- 3 Way / Independent Sub + Fullrange
- 4 Way
- 2-In-4
If you do not want to use one of the pre-defined configurations, you have also the possibility to operate
the DSP 244 in Full Edit mode. This mode offers access to all parameters and basically any input/output
routing can be programmed. Additionally, the output assignment (output function - Sub, Lo, Mid, Hi,
Fullrange) is also freely definable. For further information, please refer to the chapters 8, PARAMETERS,
and 9, OPTION FUNCTIONS.

The active configuration is defined by the selected program; i. e.: each program is based on a specific
configuration which is also displayed next to the program number and program name.
In general, all configurations offer identical signal processing blocks. Five filters are available for either
one of the two input signals. These filters can be selected individually and used as parametric EQ’s, Low-
/ High-Shelving filters or Lo-Pass- / Hi-Pass filters. It is further possible to individually assign the delay’s
total delay time of 5.4 seconds to both input channels, to the sum of the two channels, and/or to the 4
outputs. Each output employs two X-Over filters (Hi-Pass / Lo-Pass). Linkwitz-Riley, Butterworth or Bessel
filters (6, 12, 18, 24 dB/oct. slope) can be selected. Each output channel provides 4 additional filters which
can be used as parametric EQs, Low- / High-shelving filters, or Lo-Pass and Hi-Pass filters, but also as
All-Pass filters. In addition to a gain control for adjusting the output level and a polarity switch, each output
is monitored by a digital compressor / limiter with adjustable threshold, attack and release.
In the following chapters you will find a more detailed description of the different configurations.
