Hi, I downloaded the BB processor, very nice work indeed 🙂
I was wondering how the combination of a good PC+High end sound card works out
vs a dedicated hardware based processor. I was looking at a product from Solidyne
its the DSP 562 and it sure looks good for the price.Does anyone have any insight on this box and how it would stack up against BB on
the air.My other question pertains to running BB on a stripped down ver of windows i.e
windows embedded. My feeling is that windows embedded might be a better long
term solution from a OS perspective for a dedicated BB box as opposed to using
XP, Win3k etc which are desktop OS’.Is it possible to run BB on say windows embedded 2011 ?
Thanks for your insight. Scott
Breakaway blows away the Solidyne, much clearer and undistorted on air. The only comparison I’ve heard though is versus an Omnia 6 EXi, and even there… the Solidyne demo gave itself an unfair advantage by having way less loudness for the Omnia. When that was compensated for, the Omnia won out – not by as large a margin as you would think… but the Omnia 6 is an aging box, and Omnia has a new box in the works which will probably be pretty stellar from what I’ve heard of it, and knowing who’s working on it.
Solidyne has MPX Tool licenses given to them, in the hopes they would do some fair comparisons by running the torture test and sending the MPX… They said they would, but so far – in some 2 years now i guess – that hasn’t been done. Draw your own conclusions as to why that is. 😉
Far as Embedded, that’s that way to go. The Breakaway hardware runs on XP Embedded and all of the "Leif-related" Linear Acoustic gear as well. Not sure on 2011, but I don’t see why not other than maybe ASIO drivers, if you are using Breakaway ASIO.
Hi Jesse, thanks for the reply.
As far as XP embedded goes, Is there any document that provides a minimal
list of services that is needed to run breakaway on xp embedded so as to
hit the ground running.I think xp-embedded or its latest incarnation would be ideal long term for a
suitable BB Box. This would have huge advantages over a dedicated HW box
such as a orban ,omnia etc.Thanks Scott.
