New white paper on 8600

[rorban]

We have just posted a new white paper on the 8600's peak limiting system called "Measuring the Improvements in Optimod-FM 8600's FM Peak Limiting Technology." It shows how the 8600's technological improvements over the 8500 can be objectively measured by using real-world program material as the test signal.

The marketing of broadcast audio processors has often suffered from objectively
unverifiable hyperbole. Meanwhile, traditional measurements using static test signals
like single-tone harmonic distortion and multi-tone IM distortion cannot rigorously
predict the subjective listening qualities of broadcast processors because these
processors are purposely very nonlinear, so that the assumptions implicit in test tone
measurements (that the systems being measured are ideally linear and that
their nonlinearities are weak) do not hold.

AMEN!!!!
