Aqua Pacific 6-Band Audio Processor

The Aqua Pacific 6 Band FM audio processor is a 1U DSP platform that gives broadcasters precise control over loudness and tonal balance. Its six‑band processing chain evens out level differences, adds punch and protects against over‑modulation, so the station sound stays consistent on any receiver. Integrated stereo generation, BS.412 MPX limiting and an onboard RDS encoder allow Pacific to sit directly in front of the transmitter as an all‑in‑one FM processing and composite source.

Key Features

• Six‑band AGC and multiband limiters for tight loudness control and a recognisable Aqua Pacific 6 Band sound.
• Bass enhancement, advanced clippers and mix controls that add impact while keeping distortion low.
• Stereo generator with composite clippers, pilot protection and dual MPX outputs for flexible transmitter feeds.
• BS.412 MPX power limiting to keep deviation within regulatory limits without losing competitive loudness.
• RDS encoder supporting station ID and song or messaging data plus remote configuration.
• Analogue and AES/EBU I/O, web browser control and SNMP integration for modern FM plants.

Applications

Deploy the Aqua Pacific 6 Band at the studio or transmitter site as the main FM processor, as a composite processor feeding analogue or digital links, or as part of a backup chain where reliable, polished sound is essential.
