Crossovers, Routing and Loudspeaker Control

DSP Manager 2 provides four stereo inputs and four stereo outputs. Its crossovers include 4th order Linkwitz-Riley and 3rd order Butterworth types, with both 2-way and 3-way modes available.

Matrix Mode lets you route audio sources to different loudspeaker systems, which suits venues and events where sources need to reach separate listening spaces. Output delay compensation helps align outputs, and each output can carry up to four plugins.

A built-in brickwall limiter and a 5-band parametric EQ are included for shaping each output.

What Changed in Version 2

According to the developer, version 2 brings an improved audio engine, a new 4th order Linkwitz-Riley crossover filter, a new delay compensation system, a new built-in recording system and a new MIDI assign system.

The update also adds compatibility with the latest Mac and Windows operating systems, including Apple Silicon. Presets can be saved and recalled through the built-in preset manager.
