Overview

StormAudio ISP Elite 32 Digital AES MK3 Immersive Sound Processor

The StormAudio ISP Elite 32 Digital AES MK3 takes the Elite platform in a different direction, providing 32 channels of professional AES/EBU digital output for sophisticated digital cinema architectures.

Instead of relying exclusively on analog connections between processor and amplification, the Digital AES configuration allows up to 32 channels to remain digital as they leave the processor.

This makes it an exceptional choice for systems built around digital-input amplifiers, external high-performance DACs, active loudspeakers, or professional digital-audio distribution architectures.

32-Channel AES/EBU Digital Output

The defining feature of this model is its 32-channel AES/EBU digital output module.

Thirty-two channels are provided through four RJ45 connectors, allowing high-channel-count digital audio to be distributed far more efficiently than running dozens of individual analog interconnects.

The processor also retains 16 balanced XLR analog outputs, providing a hybrid analog/digital architecture when required.

Additional analog output modules can be added when a project requires a combination of digital and expanded analog connectivity.

Complete Elite MK3 Processing

The Digital AES version retains the same powerful Elite processing platform, including:

  • Dolby Atmos
  • DTS Pro
  • Auro-3D
  • IMAX Enhanced
  • MPEG-H
  • Sony 360 Reality Audio
  • StormXT
  • Dirac Live Room Correction
  • Dirac Live Bass Control
  • Dirac Live Active Room Treatment
  • Expert Bass Management
  • Roon Ready
  • HDMI 2.1 / 8K

Built for Advanced System Architecture

The ISP Elite 32 Digital AES makes the most sense when the entire theater is engineered around digital signal distribution.

It allows an experienced system designer to determine where D/A conversion occurs rather than requiring conversion at the processor's outputs.

For large equipment racks, active speaker systems, and specialized cinema installations, that can provide significant architectural advantages.
