Bose Introduces New Line of ControlSpace ESP Engineered Sound Processors

	The new Bose ControlSpace ESP-880 engineered sound processor

The new line of ControlSpace ESP engineered sound processors from Bose Professional Systems Division consists of three models of networkable digital signal processors, each configured, controlled, and monitored using Bose's ControlSpace Designer software. With over 115dB dynamic range and ultra-low noise/distortion, the company says the single-rack ControlSpace ESP engineered sound processors deliver studio-quality analog and digital audio to the installed sound marketplace.

The Bose ControlSpace ESP-880 (a fixed 8x8 analog I/O configuration), ESP-1240 (12x4 analog I/O), and ESP-4120 (4x12 analog I/O) engineered sound processors all include a rear-panel expansion slot that accommodates optional networking cards including Dante and AVB network audio. Networking cards support combined audio and control connectivity with third-party products, other Bose ESP processors, and Bose PowerMatch amplifiers. In addition, an integrated ESPLink optical output provides low latency, uncompressed 48kHz audio to same-rack Bose PowerMatch amplifiers.

All ESP processors include control input and output capabilities, as well as built-in RS-232 serial and Ethernet ports, allowing integration with industry-standard control systems. Any of the Bose wall-mounted user interfaces, including the programmable CC-64 and CC-16 controllers and three simplified zone volume interfaces, can be used to control all Bose Professional networked devices.

These three new processors join the newly refreshed ControlSpace ESP-00 Series II engineered sound processor which provides flexible I/O configurability via an eight-slot card frame and a range of analog and digital option cards.
