Overview
Audio analyzer manufacturer Audio Precision is demonstrating some of the latest high-performance features of its APx range at NAB 2010, including the new 24-bit, 1MHz ultra-high-bandwidth FFT option, custom reporting export functions and WAV file analysis.
Where will they be?
Beaverton, Oregon, April 2010: Audio Precision, the recognized standard in audio test and measurement, will be showing some of the latest features of their APx Series audio analyzer at this year's NAB show, running in Las Vegas from April 12-15.
What does Ver 2.5 Software give you?
Since the beginning of this year, Audio Precision have been shipping the BW52 ultra-high-bandwidth 1MHz FFT option for the APx525 family of audio analyzers, which delivers unprecedented bandwidth (DC to 1MHz), one million points, and 24-bit resolution when measuring out-of-band noise in Class-D amps, sigma-delta converters and other modern audio devices, easily surpassing the maximum FFT bandwidth offered by competing analyzers (usually topping out at 250kHz).
More recently, the v2.5 software update for APx has added custom reporting options (allowing automatic, direct export of APx test and measurement data into customizable Word documents for faster. richer reporting), .wav file analysis (allowing testing of digital recorders, PC sound cards, etc), and the ability to stream Dolby's TrueHD lossless audio compression format through the APx HDMI option.
There’s nothing quite like one megahertz FFTs at 24-bit resolution in the morning,” comments Tom Williams, VP of Marketing at Audio Precision. “It’s like turning on a light for the out-of-band energy that’s out there ready to hit your signal chain when you least expect it.
