Product Information:
In today's recording and sound
reinforcement environments, the need for multiple channels of high
quality, easy to use compression is growing rapidly. The new dbx®
1046 is designed to provide the audio professional with just that: 4
channels of great sounding dbx compression for a variety of
applications. Incorporating the industry standard dbx designs and
the latest available manufacturing techniques, the dbx 1046 provides
pristine sonic quality with that classic dbx sound.
The 1046 provides 4 channels of smooth classic dbx OverEasy® or Hard
Knee compression that are perfectly suited for use on individual
tracks of your multitrack recorder, and in virtually all
applications the separate channels can be individually interfaced
and used for entirely independent purposes. Additionally the newly
developed PeakStopPlus™ is ideal for protecting your system from the
oppressive peaks that can take out valuable drivers in your sound
reinforcement rig or studio monitors.
All four channels have the following controls:
Threshold - allows you to set the level at which the compressor
starts affecting the gain
OverEasy - allows you to select between soft compression for overall
gain control or Hard Knee compression based on the characteristics
of the original dbx 160.
Ratio - allows you to set the slope of gain reduction affecting the
signal over the threshold level.
Input/Output Meter - allows you to set the meter to check the input
and output levels for maximum signal-to-noise ratio and best level
matching.
Output Gain - allows you to add make-up gain or to adjust the output
level for that channel to match the next device's input gain.
Bypass - hard wire bypass allows you to hear how the compressor is
affecting your signal.
PeakStopPlus - allows you to set the maximum signal level you want
to pass through this channel. While it's virtually impossible to
eliminate distortion, the PeakStopPlus circuit does it gracefully
and effectively with minimal distortion.
Stereo Link - allows you to link channels 1&2 and 3&4 for two
channels of true stereo compression.
All four channels feature balanced gold plated XLR and 1/4" inputs
and outputs, and switchable +4dBu or -10dBV operating level to
interface each individual channel with any other device.
So whether you need to control the level, placement in the mix, or
overall characteristics of 4 independent signals or control the gain
leveling on a couple of stereo pairs, the dbx 1046 is for you.
