[QUOTE="Scott Bolt, post: 116799, member: 3950"] Re: New Midas M32 Console The A/D and D/A chips are configurable and can handle 192Khz as you state. This would allow 96Khz processing without niquist issues. The existing processor is a 3rd gen SHARC processor 213XX I believe. There is a 4th gen 214XX which not only clocks nearly 2x as fast, but also includes integrated FFT hardware calculations as well as other SIMD processing engines which should raise the processing power much more than 2X over the current design. This processor is reportedly available in a pin compatible and code compatible version. My speculation is that either the M32 will ship with this processor installed and require only a firmware update to achieve 96Khz processing ..... or they will provide a socket for the processor and allow an easy update in the future that requires you send your mixer in to get both a hardware and firmware update. [/end speculation]. At any rate, I don't believe that the X32 processing is capable of 96Khz with the existing features and channel count without hardware modification .... but that is also speculation. [/QUOTE]
