The BASIS platform meets the control, monitoring and processing needs of amplification and loudspeaker systems over an Ethernet network. The BASIS 722az units combine two distinct QSC technologies within a single hardware unit. Amplifier and loudspeaker control, monitoring and protection, and configurable DSP are seamlessly integrated into one powerful single RU package.

Through QSControl.net, QSC's BASIS and next-generation RAVE and DSP products can be networked together and controlled from a single software interface. In addition, multiple networked computers can be set up to control and monitor all of the units simultaneously.

Users of most other configurable DSP systems are familiar with a variable latency inherent in the processing configuration. Add more processing blocks and you also add delay, whether you want it or not. QSC's DSP engine is unique in having a short and fixed processing latency through the DSP subsystem. When the A/D and D/A converters are included, the total analog-to-analog latency of a single unit is a negligible 2.354 milliseconds. QSC's fixed latency DSP is configurable DSP that stays fast and predictable from one configuration to the next.
