[QUOTE="Simon Coffin, post: 149043, member: 388"] Re: Replacing/duplicating a Meyer analog processor? Folks,Thanks for the info. Duplicating the Meyer processor would be an interesting intellectual exercise, but in balance is more work then I can invest. That being said: Brian, if the sense lines are only being used as feedback in the limiting circuitry, wouldn't it be fairly straightforward to measure when they engage and replicate that in a DSP, assuming the amp gain is known? Comparing the input signal to the processor and output from the amp, should indicate when the limiting starts and how aggressive it is. It seems to me, since Meyer didn't know what amps were being used, they could not just set a static limiter threshold in the processor, so had to use a feedback loop via the sense lines. The diagram posted earlier doesn't indicate any function for them beyond limiting, but if they do anything fancier, all bets are off. And ref, the original intent of this post, we are probably going to replace the Meyers with RCF TT powered wedges. Cheers, [/QUOTE]
