New York, NY (July 1, 2024)—Eclipse Audio has launched the second version of its FIR Creator EX software application for designing loudspeaker filters and DSP solutions.
The recent version 2 major update brings with it a greater level of customization available within FIR Creator EX, eliminating all manual IIR & FIR filter limits for DSP design (IIR filters, FIR magnitude and FIR phase filter prototypes were limited to eight per project in earlier versions of the software).
Version 2 also introduces more branded IIR modes, to ensure matching of the IIR filter behavior with the destination processor by adjusting for brand-specific differences in IIR filter interpretation. The range of supported brands now includes Biamp Tesira, Blaze Audio, BSS, Lake, Linea Research, Marani, Pascal Audio, Powersoft, QSC Q-SYS, RAM Audio, RMS Acoustics, and Symetrix.

Additionally, the DTP export options in FIR Creator EX have been expanded in version 2 to include Lab Gruppen’s IPX DSP amplifiers, joining Lake and Powersoft. Data is sent to the IPX Controller using the ‘Loudspeaker Processor Interchange Format’ (LPIF), a brand-agnostic JSON-based format for transferring loudspeaker EQ settings from filter design tools to DSP amps and processors.
FIR Creator EX is available in both macOS and Windows versions.
