AFC Image Controller can control the parameters of the AFC Image components placed inside the DME series. The sophisticated GUI allows for precise and quick control of the sound image by manipulating sound objects and adjusting the sound image size.

The three-dimensional sound image localization can be controlled by placing sound objects and speakers at any positions on the Cartesian coordinates (X, Y, Z).

This software can control the parameters of the 3D reverb effect, which realizes the reverb according to the sound object position.

You can save and recall parameters of sound objects and 3D reverb effects in Scene data.

This software can adjust the coordinates of each speaker, as well as the equalizer and delay.

You can set "speaker zoning" to play sound objects through specific groups of speakers. You can also set a rendering area that converts panning operations in logical coordinates on a Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) or mixing console into any shape in real space.

This software supports external control via the Open Sound Control (OSC) protocol and ADM-OSC.

A single AFC Image component inside the DME processor can be operated from up to eight computers.

Object Input : Receives input signals from other audio components.

OBA (Object Based Audio) Renderer : Using the object-based audio method, the renderer calculates the output signals to each speaker based on the position information of the sound object in three-dimensional space.

3D Reverb : Processes a reverb effect that reproduces the reflection and reverberation of sound in three-dimensional space based on the sound object position.

SubSpeaker Renderer : Calculates the output signals of the selected sound object to speakers in a speaker group other than the assigned speaker zone.

Oscillator : Generates signals such as sine waves and noise.

Speaker Out : Sends the audio signals processed by the OBA Renderer and 3D Reverb to each speaker.

SubSpeaker Out : Sends audio signals to the sub speaker.

AUX Send/AUX Out : Mixes in mono the input signals of the selected sound object and outputs them for purposes such as monitoring or LFE (Low Frequency Effect).

Oscillator Reference Out : Outputs the original signals of signals generated by Oscillator. The original signals can be used to measure the transfer function in speaker tuning.
