DBMax is a Level Maximizer and Audio Enhancement processor for use in digital transmission, linking, webcast and radio STL applications.
High resolution and high sample rate processing prevents unwanted distortion and listening fatigue from being generated, artifacts often associated with comparable processors.
The 5-band section in DBMax can be combined with Automatic Gain Control, Dynamic and Static Stereo Enhancement, Dynamic and Static Eq and other tools for maximizing audio impact and creating a signature sound. Balanced and unbalanced AES/EBU I/O is standard, and outputs are always active. Sample rate conversion can be invoked when using digital inputs. Analog I/O is standard and outputs are always active.
The 24 bit converters are scaled in the analog domain, with scaling under preset control, to minimize noise and maximize headroom under all operating conditions. DBMax can be remotely controlled using GPI or RS485 serial inputs.
The paper presents ways of specifying audio tightly for HDTV, SDTV and iCast. Contrary to Dialnorm, these principles work for all kind of program material, and are based on open standards.

Using the DB-8 Broadcast Processor for SD, HD and SAP feeds
The DB-8 is so easy to use that it's really is a no-brainer. It looks complex but the user interface is simple to learn. All the control parameters are fully labeled, and the factory presets got me to a great starting point."
