Features New (Extended Resolution) long-throw faders for maximum control and resolution, with integrated protective dust cover New Sweepable High Pass filter 20-200Hz Ultra low noise and accurate 'Constant Q' circuitry Balanced Inputs and Outputs on XLR and Jack connectors Switchable 6dB or 15dB cut and boost Audio Ground lift switch on rear Intuitive controls User friendly layout ...and most of all, flawless performance in any audio environment Sometimes a 10 band Graphic Equalizer isn't enough, but a 30 band EQ is overkill. Well, for times like these, we've designed the ARX EQ215. It's a dual channel 15 band Graphic Equalizer built to the same exacting standards as our EQ260, but designed especially for applications where the program material is predominantly pre-recorded and pre-processed. Typical applications are, for example, in DJ systems, Karaoke bars, home theatre, project and budget studio control rooms, and home stereo systems Delivering flawless professional performance, it takes up minimal rack space being neatly housed in a compact 2 RU all steel chassis. Quality you can feel as well as hear On the EQ215 's front panel, each channel has 15 of our new Extended Resolution long throw, centre grounding faders, switchable to either ±15dB or ±6dB, for the ideal combination of high fader resolution and maximum cut and boost. A protective dust cover is also fitted to each fader. As well, there is a Gain recovery control with up to +10 dB of gain; a Clip LED to indicate circuit overload, a sweepable 20-200Hz High Pass filter, and an IN/OUT hardwire bypass switch which removes the EQ215 completely from the signal path. Accurate Constant Q Circuitry Internally, the EQ215 features innovative Constant Q circuitry. What makes this so good? Well, it means that the graphical representation of the sliders on the front panel more accurately reflects the changes you are making to the sound, as compared to the very rough approximation you get with many traditional graphic EQ designs. In other words, 'what you see is what you get.' Combine this with the EQ215 's ultra low noise circuitry, and you have an equalizer that is unsurpassed for total accuracy.Additionally, at the 0dB slider position each filter is, in effect, removed from the circuit to further enhance the EQ215 's low noise figures. Balanced Inputs and Outputs On the rear panel, each channel of the EQ215 has true differential Balanced Inputs and Servo Balanced Outputs, with both XLR as well as convenient TRS balanced jack connectors. There is also an audio ground lift switch to isolate the audio ground from the chassis ground. Universal AC Power AC power range is a universal 100 to 120V or 220 to 240V AC, and is connected to the unit via a removable power lead and standard 3 pin IEC connector, with built-in fuse and voltage switch. When you need superlative, uncompromising audio quality but can't justify the use of a dual 30 band EQ such as the EQ260, we belive the EQ215 is the only graphic equalizer to choose. With its compact High Density design, clean good looks and precision electronics, the ARX EQ215 will truly enhance any pro audio application. You'll never compromise on Quality when you choose ARX

| 1231 Dual 31-Band Graphic Equalizer
The dbx? 12 Series were designed to meet the needs of the most demanding sound reinforcement environments, while offering the simplicity of straightforward controls. The 1231 provides standard features like dual-channels, 31 1/3 octave bands, ISO frequency centers, +/- 12 dB input gain range, and switchable 40Hz/18 dB per octave low-cut filters, but also includes other insightful features. These include 45 mm faders; selectable +/-6dB or +/-15dB boost/cut range for precise gain adjustments; XLR, barrier strip, and 1/4'' TRS connectors for installation ease; balanced inputs and outputs for quiet operation; and chassis/signal ground lift capabilities for quick hum isolation. The visionary design of the dbx 12 Series makes your job easier.
The dbx 12 Series Equalizers were precision engineered to provide years of maintenance-free operation in any application. The magnetically isolated transformer, electronically balanced/unbalanced inputs and servo balanced/unbalanced outputs, RF-filtered inputs and outputs, and power-off hard-wire relay bypass with 2 second power up delay were steps our engineers took to ensure compatibility for all installations. Only the best components were utilized, yielding a 10Hz to 50kHz frequency response, greater than 90dB SNR (ref +4dBu), less than 0.005% THD +Noise (1kHz at +4dBu), and interchannel crosstalk of less than -80dB from 20Hz to 20kHz. All this attention to detail is contained in a 3U steel/aluminum chassis.

The Rane ME 15S microGraphic Equalizer is a two-channel, 2/3-octave design with 20 mm sliders in a single rack space unit. It features a Range switch for high slider resolution in the ±6 dB mode, equivalent resolution to 45 mm sliders found on the DEQ 60L. The ±12 dB mode provides a wide range of control over system audio.
The active filter sections feature Raneʼs innovative constant-Q (constant bandwidth) design. Constant-Q means the bandwidth of each individual filter is guaranteed to be narrow enough to prevent unwarranted interaction between filters, yet wide enough to produce exactly the type of correction curve demanded by even the most unusual acoustic surroundings. This differs dramatically from conventional designs of the past, encumbered with the unfortunate characteristic of changing bandwidth when changing boost/cut amounts.
Front panel controls and indicators include an overall rotary Level control for each channel as well as Overload indicators. Passive pushbutton Bypass switches feature LED indicators, avoiding ambiguity by being on when the unit is Bypassed. (A passive Bypass switch requires no power to operate. This allows completion of the audio path should power fail in the ME 15S.)
Inputs and Outputs are electronically balanced designs, capable of unbalanced operation when required. They accept and drive all possible signal levels into normal load impedances. Balanced applications choose between the XLR or 1/4" Tip-Ring-Sleeve connectors. Unbalanced sources also may tie to the ME 15S through mono 1/4" connectors (no ring connection).
Features - Constant-Q Bandwidth Design
- Overall Level Controls and Passive Bypass Switches
- 20 mm Filter Slide Controls with ±6 dB or ±12 dB Slider Range
- Infrasonic, Ultrasonic, & RFI Filters
- Balanced XLR and 1/4" TRS Inputs and Outputs
- Universal internal switching power supply (100-240 VAC)
