DBX 266xs
DBX 266xs
Bring a more professional sound to your mix

Adding a DBX 266xs Compressor/Limiter/Gate DBX 266xs to your live sound system or studio gives you
more dynamic control to help create more refined, professional sound.
Having compression in your audio chain gives you the ability to smooth out uneven levels,
add sustain to your guitars and grease your drums. It also makes it easy to bring vocals to the front of your mix -
adding more clarity and making them stand out from surrounding instruments.

Key features:
- Error proof operation to smooth uneven levels, add sustain to guitars, fatten drums or tighten up mixes
- New gate timing algorithms ensure the smoothest release characteristics
- Program-adaptive expander/gates
- Great sounding dynamics control for any type of program material
- Separate precision LED displays for gain reduction, compression threshold and gate threshold allow quick, accurate setup
- Stereo or dual-mono operation
- Balanced inputs and outputs on 1/4" TRS and XLR connectors
- Side Chain insert
- Classic dbx "Auto" mode
