The D5T incorporates a powerful and versatile digital effects card. The card effectively replaces a rack full of external effects processing units with a fully integrated suite of high quality multi effects.

The D5T effects card features its own powerful, dedicated DSP engine which allows up to six digital effects per channel to be run simultaneously without any load on the console’s central DSP engine. The effects processor has the capacity to support the simultaneous use of every effect on every channel without loss of performance or audio quality.

The first effect offers a range of dedicated reverb algorithms of exceptional quality, subtlety and depth. The next three provide flanging, phasing, double tracking, vocoder and digital delays. Effects five and six provide extra digital dynamics, compression and equalisation for up to 7.1 surround sound outputs.

All routing, patching, effects parameter adjustments and user memory store and recall functions are performed on the touchscreens. All effects and their settings can be stored as part of the console’s user presets and sessions, and can be saved on the USB key for instant recall on another DiGiCo D5T.
