About DSPECIALISTS
DSPECIALISTS Digitale Audio- und Messsysteme GmbH was founded in 2003 in Berlin and develops digital signal processing (DSP) solutions in the fields of audio, intercom and measurement technology. The portfolio includes proprietary products such as the HARVEY audio and media control matrix for sound reinforcement systems and conference systems, the ISOSTEM toolchain for upmix and loudness management in broadcasting, and DSP modules of the DSPE series. In addition to its product business, the company offers development services: consulting, electronics design including circuit simulation, component procurement, PCB layout, prototype construction, CE and EMC testing, series production, and software development ranging from DSP programming and Embedded Linux to VoIP and web interfaces. Applications range from noise cancellation in intercom systems and vibration analysis to flow velocity measurement of industrial exhaust gases. Customers come from the professional audio industry, broadcasting and industry – from small and medium-sized enterprises to large international corporations. Distribution partners represent the products in more than 15 countries.
