DPM System Description

QSC’s DPM is a powerful solution for today’s D-Cinema audio systems. From server to speakers, the DPM offers a complete set of tools to facilitate all the signal processing, audio distribution, monitoring and automation control services required in a modern D-Cinema sound system.

The DPM builds on the legacy of QSC’s DCM and DPM products to provide all signal processing and monitoring functions for Digital Cinema in a single integrated system. Designed to be used with QSC’s Digital Cinema Amplifiers (DCA) and featuring advanced Intrinsic Correction™ settings for QSC’s Digital Cinema Speakers (DCS), the DPM optimizes loudspeaker performance while simplifying cinema sound system wiring and configuration. The DPM is configurable for passive and bi-amp operation. Though optimized to receive audio content directly from a D-Cinema server, the DPM is also compatible with all analog cinema processor formats and features an 8 channel analog input for integration with 35 mm audio systems.

The DPM is more than an audio processor. Whether designing a system for a single auditorium or designing a large multiplex, the DPM offers the flexibility in configuration, networking, audio distribution and advanced management services to get the job done.
