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

DBX 676 Tube Mic Pre Channel Strip
DBX 286S Microphone Pre-amp Processor
The dbx® 286s is a full-featured Channel Strip Processor that provides a studio-quality microphone/instrument preamp and four processors that can be used independently or in any combination. Why microphone vocals and instruments through a noisy, fuzzy mixer? The sonically flawless dbx 286s Mic Preamp has all the features you need, including a wide range of input gain controls, switchable 48V phantom power and an 80Hz high-pass filter to remove low-frequency hum, rumble or wind. Use the patented dbx OverEasy compressor® to transparently smooth out uneven acoustic tracks or deliver that classic "in your face" vocal performance that only a dbx compressor can. Eliminate vocal sibilance and high-frequency distortion from instruments such as cymbals with the frequency-tunable De-Esser. Fine-tune the Enhancer HF Detail control to add sparkle and sharpness to your tracks, and make adjustments to the LF Detail control to add fullness and depth to vocals and bass instruments while cleaning up muddy low mids. And separate threshold and ratio controls on the Expander/Gate let you subtly reduce headphone leakage or radically shield loud guitar amps.
