Three aspects of audio quality are controlled by the Audessence ALPS-1+ Audio Level Processing System (IP Access): peak level (modulation), dynamic range, and perceived loudness (volume). This broadcast audio processor is appropriate for any scenario where a powerful yet discrete control over any one of these three is required. An incredibly flexible audio leveler that is perfect for radio studios, web streaming, remote broadcast site operations, codec and STL protection, satellite feeds, and transmitter protection.
