In addition, this audio toolbox provides the end user with 24 custom
presets that have been specifically written and designed to work in
tandem with the most popular studio reference monitors available.
The DriveRack Studio now allows you to fine-tune even the most
sonically challenged rooms.
The DriveRack Studio continues the legacy of DriveRack series,
which has been created by the company that has been redefining
the standard of signal processing for more than 30 years. The DriveRack
Studio was designed with the purpose and vision of providing state-of-
the-art signal processing in the studio environment, while utilizing a
simple and intuitive user interface. This goal has been achieved by
offering two independent channels of processing power with a linkable
28-Band Graphic equalizer, industry-standard dbx? stereo compressor
module, feedback eliminator and the 120A Subharmonic Synthesizer on
the input, with a six channel output system that includes parametric EQs,
and Peak Plus? limiters (which are used to provide protection against speaker
blowouts) and alignment delay. These features combined with the Wizard
setup system, represent a methodical design that is guaranteed to deliver
optimal, all-inclusive processing in a completely scalable system.

| Behringer DCX2496 Overview
The DCX2496 ULTRADRIVE PRO from Behringer is a digital loudspeaker management system, that provides excellent audio quality, along with a comprehensive feature list. It allows for precise set-up of multiple loudspeaker arrays, suitable for live sound, fixed installations that require control of loudspeaker systems, and other contractor-installed applications.
Each of the three-inputs and six-outputs have fixed processing blocks, including gain, delay, EQ and dynamic EQ on the input channels, and gain, crossover, EQs, limiter and delays on the output side. One of the inputs can accept a stereo AES/EBU digital signal. An integrated sample rate converter assists in accepting various sample rates. Additionally, an internal input-sum signal is easily set-up.
Four different mono and stereo output operating modes are available, all with individual crossover filter types with selectable roll-off characteristics. Input and output delays allow for time adjusting signals to compensate for ambient temperature changes or for adjusting arrival time differences for individual speaker clusters. EQs can be used for both musical enhancement or for level-dependent equalization. Brick-wall limiters guarantee speaker protection.
Remote control of one or several units can be accomplished utilizing downloadable software for a Windows based computer. Set-ups can be saved to the software, or to an optional PCMCIA card for the ultimate in portability. Servo-balanced, gold-plated XLR connectors for all inputs and outputs guarantee excellent connectivity.
- Three-input, six-output loudspeaker management system
- Four different mono- and stereo-output operating modes
- Individual crossover filter types including Butterworth, Bessel and Linkwitz-Riley, with selectable roll-off characteristics from 6dB to 48dB per octave

- Dynamic EQ for level-dependent equalization and parametric EQ selectable for each channel
- “Zero" attack limiters on all output channels for optimal signal protection
- Automatic or manual-adjustable delays for all inputs and outputs allow for adjustment due to room temperature, phase and arrival time differences
- Link option via RS-485 network interface allows for linking multiple units for larger installation requirements
- Downloadable software enables single- or multiple-unit remote control utilizing a Windows based computer
- Sixty user-defined internal presets can bestored via software or on a PCMCIA card

| Overview
More sound to your amps and speakers
The secret to making speakers sound great lies with the crossover you use. With the dbx® 223xs Crossover you\'ll get great performance, ultra low-noise, rugged reliability and four decades of dbx knowledge and expertise in building the world\'s finest processors. The 223xs uses precision filters to separate the audio signal and direct the correct frequencies to your loudspeaker drivers. By directing only the specific frequency bands to each speaker driver the 223xs leaves your amplifiers free to use their full power on the usable signal eliminating distortion and giving your PA system a cleaner and better sound.
The dbx 223xs is a dual channel crossover with all the features you would expect from a professional product. It features Linkwitz-Riley 24dB per octave filters, independent output gain controls for level matching, output phase inversion, 40 Hz low cut filter, and optional mono summing of the low frequency (subwoofer) output. Everything in the design exudes great precision from the solid "click" controls to the high quality XLR inputs and outputs
