Feature Highlights
What the TL-88DSP Adds to a System
Tuning Power
From Quick Adjustment to Detailed System Shaping
The TL-88DSP is designed to support both faster baseline setup and more advanced system correction. Basic EQ mode provides straightforward 13-band adjustment, while Advanced mode opens 31 bands of parametric EQ for gain, frequency, and Q control.
- 13-band Basic EQ mode.
- 31-band parametric EQ in Advanced mode.
- Adjustable gain, frequency, and Q in advanced tuning.
Preset & Access Control
Save, Reuse, and Recall Custom Tunes
Six preset memory slots are built into the processor so users can store multiple tuning profiles directly in the unit. Presets can also be saved and loaded through the software, making it easier to reuse baseline setups or transfer a tune to another processor.
- 6 onboard preset memory slots.
- Presets can be saved and loaded through software.
- Stored presets can be selected through the Bluetooth app.
Signal Management
Flexible Input and Output Architecture
The TL-88DSP includes 8-channel high/low level input and 8 preamp outputs, allowing it to serve as the signal-management center in a wide range of amplified system layouts. High-level input handling up to 16V broadens compatibility with more source systems.
- 8-channel high / low level input.
- High-level input up to 16V.
- 8 preamp outputs.
- Maximum output level of 4.5V RMS.
