# Design Editor - DSP Configuration

## **Designer basics**

> [!NOTE]
> Description
> 
> The nnounce **Design Editor** allows you to configure audio processing by dragging and dropping the components onto the canvas and connecting them.
> 
> 
> 
> DSP (Digital Signal Processing) design components are used to process and route audio between inputs and outputs.

***Example of ampnode4 design:***

> [!NOTE]
> Tip!
> 
> ***Zoom in and zoom out*** your canvas with the magnifier icons in the right lower corner or with CTRL+mouse scroll wheel.
> 
> The ***auto-scroll feature*** is activated when the user drags a connection toward the edge of the visible workspace. The view scrolls in the direction of the cursor, allowing connections to be created between visible and off-screen components.

## **Create and Deploy Design**

To create a design for your device:

1. **Drag and drop the individual components** you need from the upper menu to the canvas.
2. ***Optional*: Name** your components to give them unique names/labels.

- The components are automatically numbered.

- Edit them if needed with the edit icon ![](https://cdn.document360.io/a3e67867-6316-451b-94ad-ec727ac9102a/Images/Documentation/image-WZ28X7W3.png) in the component header.

3. Arrange them by dragging them to the required position on the canvas.
4. **Connect the components** as needed, you have to options how to wire the components:

a. Select a connector on a component and drag the wire to the destination connector.

b. Name the connectors and connect them to already named connectors without virtual wiring.

> [!WARNING]
> Important
> 
> You can use your **nnounce device within a Q-SYS installation in basic mode**. In that case you will configure streams in the Q-SYS plugin within the Q-SYS Designer. In basic mode **the plugin takes over the configuration of audio processing and streams** in the nnounce Design Editor.

To modify an existing design, click on the button *Edit Design* and follow the steps above or watch the video.

> [!NOTE]
> Note:
> 
> You can add a maximum of 32 components of the types netRx + netTx + Router Input + Router Output + Audio Player to the Designer.

## **Import Design**

You can reuse a design that has already been created and import it for your device. Once you have clicked on the *Import Design* button, you can select the design file at your workstation.

## Export Design

You can export your design to use it on another device. Once you have clicked on the *Export Design* button, the design file is immediately downloaded to your workstation.
