miniDSP products are audio processors, with two or more audio input channels and two or more audio output channels. Inputs and outputs might be digital or analog, depending on the specific product. Typical applications include: The miniDSP SHD can be used with a Logitech® Harmony® remote. For this app note, we tried two of the most affordable Harmony remotes, the Harmony 650 and the Harmony 350. The Harmony 650 has a small screen and is easier to set up, while the Harmony 350 is a bit cheaper. This short app note shows you how easy it is to set up!
