NetMax itself advances to the next level with the N8000-1500.  At the heart of the N8000-1500 is the new DSP-2 engine.  Composed of three dual-core processors, the DSP-2 expands the total processing power of the N8000-1500 to 1500 MIPS.  But it doesn’t stop there-the unique modular nature of NetMax’s means that each input or output card that is added to a chassis provides an additional DSP engine and another 100 MIPS of processing power.  This means that a fully loaded chassis provides 1900 MIPS of processing-almost double the power of the original N8000.  Combined with the optional CobraNet interface, NetMax’s unique monitoring and supervision options, FIR-Drive, and the multitude of control options provided by IRIS-Net, the N8000-1500 represents the most powerful pro audio processor on the market!
