dbx DriveRack 260 Loudspeaker Management System

Description

The dbx DriveRack 260 is a professional digital speaker management processor designed to give sound engineers precise control over PA systems. It combines equalization, crossover processing, feedback suppression, speaker protection, and system tuning in one unit. Advanced Feedback Suppression The dbx DriveRack 260 features advanced notch filtering designed to identify and reduce unwanted feedback and ringing. This helps sound engineers achieve higher usable volume while maintaining a cleaner and more controlled mix. Precise EQ and Crossover Control The processor provides linkable dual-band graphic input equalization alongside multi-band parametric output control. This allows you to shape the system response and fine-tune individual speaker outputs according to the requirements of your PA setup. Crossover processing also helps divide audio frequencies between compatible subwoofers, mid-range speakers, and high-frequency systems for a more balanced sound. Reliable Speaker Protection Built-in PeakStopPlus limiters help control excessive signal levels and protect compatible amplifiers and speaker drivers from potentially damaging clipping. This makes the DriveRack 260 a valuable part of a professional sound system. Speaker Alignment and System Tuning Alignment delay processing helps synchronize speaker components and arrays for improved timing. The built-in setup wizard can also assist with configuring compatible speaker and amplifier systems, making initial system setup more straightforward. Powerful Bass Enhancement The DriveRack 260 includes subharmonic synthesis for controlled low-frequency enhancement. This feature can add depth and impact to suitable music applications without unnecessarily overwhelming the overall mix. Remote System Control An RS-232 connection allows the processor to communicate with a compatible computer for system tuning and monitoring. This provides convenient control when making adjustments from a dedicated position.
