SiDD (the DP324) is a powerful processing unit incorporating Brick-Wall limiting, input EQ, High and Low pass filters, ADT and Delay, Compression and Gate and Expansion with side-chain EQ. Interface software allows real-time control of multiple SiDD controllers with a PC. Over the past few years, in-ear monitoring has quickly become the de-facto foldback method for live performance and the engineering skill for balancing the sound have moved from the battle of feedback over level to a more finite art: that of creating the perfect mix for each performer. The use of high quality earpiece drivers within these systems makes the dynamics control of paramount importance to avoid damage to the musician’s hearing.
XTA products are available in the UK via Beyerdynamic.
