Features of Bongiovi DPS
Tony Bongiovi's experience and skills as a recording engineer, as well as his reverence for music producers, make this sound perfect from the perspective of a sound professional.
The unique combination of analog and digital that is created from "original digital sound signal processing technology" that matches the characteristics of human hearing and "manual analog sound quality adjustment technology" by limited engineers certified by Mr. Tony. It is a unique new sound processing technology .
Equalizer adjustment is very important in adjusting the sound quality of audio equipment. On the other hand, due to the improvement of music production technology, it is becoming difficult to amplify with an equalizer. For this reason, sound processing called a compressor, which has the effect of reducing the difference in sound intensity, has been attracting attention in recent years.
The Bongiovi DPS has its own built-in compressor. This compressor not only works uniformly across all frequencies, but also achieves a volume control effect that follows the characteristics of human hearing. As a result, it is possible to achieve a wider headroom (the margin between the peak of the sound source and the maximum reproducible sound source) while maintaining high sound quality. Afterwards, the same volume is audibly heard.
It redefines the possibilities of audio by enabling fundamental sound quality adjustments of color and quality that are impossible with standard techniques. It is a very powerful audio processing algorithm that delivers the best listening experience through any audio device.
Typical Recording
Note the bright blue core of the waveform surrounded by dark blue peaks. The light blue represents the average power of the audio and contains much of the information we perceive as loudness. The dark blue peaks can be much larger than the average power at any given moment. Amplifiers and speakers have to work very hard to reproduce all this information exactly as it is delivered.
Bongiovi DPS Real Time Audio Re-Mastering™
Notice how the lighter blues are very consistent while the darker blues are more controlled. It's easier to reproduce on speakers and headphones, and easier for us to hear. His DPS processed audio in this example will appear at the same volume to the listener . And all the space around the waveform is headroom. This headroom can be used to make sounds more audible in noisy environments and improve overall system efficiency.
This new waveform is created using a patented dynamic range process. The effect looks extreme, but is mostly transparent to the listener. This dynamic range processing allows for radical adjustments in sound quality that are not possible with standard techniques.
Applications of Bongiovi DPS
There are many applications that can use Bongiovi DPS.
DPS excels at enhancing speech intelligibility. Communication is the most important sound component in competitive games. Better voice clarity optimizes your gaming performance and wins.
