Hi all,
Soulution is going to upgrade their DA converters with a revolutionary digital volume processing.
"soulution introduces « Leedh Processing » to its D/A converters 760 and 560
soulution is the first high end electronics manufacturer world-wide who was allowed to license «Leedh Processing» for its D/A converters 560 and 760. «Leedh Processing» is a highly innovative algorithm for increasing or decreasing the volume level of a digital music signal. The patented «Leedh Processing» algorithm does this without adding any artefacts to the digital music signal.No information will be lost while adjusting the volume. This results in revealing even thinnest details and a tremendous richness of micro dynamics otherwise unavailable from digital music playback and usually associated with analog/vinyl music reproduction. Existing units of 760 and 560 can be upgraded for the new «Leedh Processing» volume control feature.
«Leedh Processing» has been invented by Gilles Millot of Acoustical Beauty, a French niche manufacturer for high end loudspeaker systems who already holds several patents for his innovative designs and technologies. The innovative «Leedh Processing» algorithm is not limited to applications in high end audio. It will also do its magic in lower quality, mass market products or even in applications outside audio."
I had the opportunity to try the first proto PCB at home and compared it with Ypsilon PST100 MK2 and Robert Koda Takumi K10, the digital volume controller designed by Acoustical Beauty and Engineered has outclassed the big analogue preamps in terms of quality of attenuation.
It has been really impressive listening to the purity of sound delivered by such device compared to very good analogue devices which add their own colors and also more distortion in volume processing... The sound of my playback chain never sounded so natural...
Audirvana has also contracted the Leedh processing and next version with high end volume processor should be released within two or three months.
The Leedh processing also enables more performing upsampling techniques, but it's too soon to tell now. It's definitely a technical breakthrough in the field of digital processing, and perhaps the death of analogue preamps... (Gilles Milot also works on a A/D conversion for analogue sources).
Cheers,
Joël
