Cedar DNS 8S Hardware Dialogue Noise Suppressor
The Cedar DNS 8S Hardware Dialogue Noise Suppressor is designed specifically for live sound and broadcast where audio over IP isn’t required.
Live sound engineers have been telling us how they prefer to use the AES/EBU digital audio connectors of our existing noise suppressors to minimize latency for concerts and festivals, conferences and other live events. So today, we’re delighted to announce the DNS 8S, a noise suppressor designed specifically for live sound and broadcast where audio over IP isn’t required.
Following in the footsteps of our existing DNS processors, the DNS 8S hosts the world-class noise suppression algorithm that you already hear (or rather, don’t hear) when it’s used to clean the FOH sound and monitoring for major artists including Ed Sheeran, Kylie Minogue, Robbie Williams, Rod Stewart, The Jonas Brothers and Girls Aloud. It also provides the pristine sound that you hear when you watch the news and major sporting events on TV or go to see blockbuster movies at the cinema.
The Cedar DNS 8S offers the same setup, processing and remote-control capabilities that make previous DNS hardware so simple and elegant to use, and we even supply it complete with a high-quality AES/EBU breakout cable. This means that you can immediately connect its four XLR male plugs and four XLR female sockets to almost any other professional standard digital audio devices and be working within moments of unpacking. (But don’t forget to read the manual!) Use it for front of house, monitoring, live-to-air broadcasting, and anywhere else where near-zero latency and retention of lip-sync is critical.
In addition to its fantastic processing, the DNS 8S provides fail-safe AES3 audio bypass implemented in the form of hardware relays that immediately connect the inputs to the outputs in the event of a power failure or other significant disruption. This means that you can install it with confidence in critical paths anywhere within the audio chain. And, with its standard 4-pin 12VDC input in addition to universal mains power, it’s suitable for use in all live situations – not just concerts and broadcasting, but also in venues such as theatres, conference venues and places of worship.
