DBX 442 DRIVE RACK COMPLETE EQ – LOUDSPEAKER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM EX-DEMO

DBX-442  Complete Equalization and Loudspeaker Management System

442 DriveRack? Complete Equalization Management System. The DriveRack? 442
Complete Equalization Management System is the latest product in the DriveRack?
line. The 442 is based on the same operating system as the DriveRack? 480 and
offers the user four inputs and four outputs on XLR connectors. Each channel has EQ
in the form of a 9-Band Parametric or a 31-Band Graphic and Notch Filters. In addition
the 442 features a filter set that can be used to create a Highpass, Lowpass or Bandpass
filter. Dynamics processing is available on all channels with a Compressor/Limiter that
emulates the classic dbx? 160. The output section of the 442 offers delay, output level
and phase compensation. The 442 is also capable of running dual real-time analyzers
on channels three and four. A 480 master, a PC GUI, or a 480R remote can control the
442. Any combination of 480s, 481s, 482s and 442s can be controlled on a single
DriveRack? network consisting of up to 100 units.

Based on the most modern hardware, this system manager offers tried-and-tested as well as new algorithms for the simple and swift construction of active multi-way systems. As much importance has been attached here by the developers to high user-friendliness as to the realization of an extremely favorable price.
24-bit sigma-delta AD/DA converters and a 32-bit floating-point signal processor make possible a dynamic range of 111 dB. In addition to the two analog inputs, a digital stereo input in AES/EBU format is available. A -6 dB pad switch in front of the AD converters offers additional security against overload when the device is connected to mixing desks with very high output levels. The 6 individually mutable outputs are electronically balanced and available on XLR sockets. For all inputs and outputs, easily read LED level meters are provided on the front panel.
Users can choose whether to configure their own systems at the device itself using the controls and display provided or else by means of the intuitive editing software.
3-way stereo, 2-way stereo + FR, 4-way mono + FR etc. Furthermore, factory presets compatible with those of the tried-and-tested DSP-244 are available for Dynacord loudspeaker systems.
In terms of DSP, the device offers parametric and graphic EQs as well as a delay function in the input and crossover, channel EQ, channel delay and a level control with limiter in each output channel.
An RS-232 interface allows Master/Slave operation of multiple devices as well as GPI switching of settings. A PC (the editing software runs under Windows) can be connected via the USB interface on the front panel.
A variable parameter lockout function allows you to determine which settings and parameters can be accessed directly at the device. This is just one of many features that make the DSP 260 an ideal choice also for the rental business.
The wealth of features combined with its outstanding audio performance and favorable price commend this audio system manager for a multitude of professional applications.

Lab Gruppen NLB 60E
The NomadLink network provides remote monitoring, control and power sequencing functions for multiple C Series or FP+ amplifiers. Indeed up to 16 NLB 60E network bridges, each monitoring up to 60 amplifiers may be accommodated in one system. Easy setup, redundancy, and minimum maintenance were bywords when developing this network format.

NomadLink is a closed-loop, daisy-chained network topology with the NLB 60E providing the bridge to the familiar world of Ethernet/LAN. NomadLink reduces installation time and cost significantly, includes redundancy during operation by design and simplifies the location of faults or system abuse.

NomadLink together with the associated DeviceControl software allows the subnets’ architecture to be automatically uploaded even without individual IP addresses in the amplifiers. All in all, it is the fastest and easiest monitoring and control network on the market today.

Providing 48-bit filter algorithms, 24-bit AD/DA conversion and a dynamic range of 115 dB, the DSP 244 sets new standards for digital loudspeaker controllers and processors. The DSP 244 is an universal Digital Sound System Processor that provides 2 inputs and 4 outputs; plus internal summing of the inputs 1 and 2. Via matrix it is possible to assign the outputs to any input or to the sum of the inputs. It is further possible to establish the following configurations: Stereo or Dual 2-Way systems, 3-Way + Direct and 4-Way systems, each with Mono Subchannel, but also full range systems. High and low-pass filters are provided for the frequency crossover functions in all operation modes. The selection includes Linkwitz-Riley, Butterworth and Bessel type filters with switchable slopes between 6, 12, 18 and 24 dB/oct. A huge number of additional filters offers extremely flexible correction of the frequency response. Each input incorporates a 5-band equalizer, allowing to assign high and low-pass, high and low-shelving or parametric peak-dip filters to its individual filter sections. Next to the frequency crossover filters, four additional filters are employed in each output channel, which also can be set to work as high or low-pass, high or low-shelving filters, parametric peak-dip filters, or all-pass filters. Additional filtering is provided through 2. order high-passes for the realization of B-6 alignment, or special LPN-filters (Low-Pass Notch filters) for correcting the frequency and phase responses of optimally vented woofer cabinets. Each channel additionally provides a delay, a polarity switch, a programmable level control and a digital compressor / limiter while the master delays are located in the input channels.
