Dspecialists, provider of development services and products for digital audio signal processing, has updated configuration software for its Harvey product family with Hypermatrix functionality.
Hypermatrix was presented at ISE 2019 in Amsterdam at the beginning of the year and is now available with the latest release.
The new function allows configuration of several Harvey devices as if they were a single device. Several Harveys can be installed centrally in a 19-in rack or distributed over a large area. Hypermatrix projects are created and edited with Harvey Composer. Selecting Hypermatrix as project type in the cockpit, the new page Hypermatrix Device Setup appears. Different devices can be added to the project. As before by single device projects, all inputs and outputs of these devices can be placed as blocks on the worksheet. This makes it clear how the project is distributed to the individual devices.
Harvey controls media devices, lighting and audio. Hypermatrix offers simple configuration and correct latency control on all channels. Dante is used in the background and Dante interfaces are automatically configured via Hypermatrix.
Hypermatrix projects are first created via Harvey Composer. For installation of projects of several Harvey devices a network connection with only one Harvey selected as master is sufficient. This Harvey takes over the distribution of the project to all other devices involved. All parameters and preset controls are shared between the devices. This is an important function if the Hypermatrix is to be operated via external media controls or a web interface.
