Product Description

The dbx 1066 is a professional, two channel compressor limiter expander/gate delivering world class dbx compression with an expanded level of control and metering capabilities.

FEATURES

  • Selectable auto (classic dbx) or manual (variable Attack and Release) compression
  • Contour switch removes unwanted low frequency information from detector circuit
  • Selectable OverEasy or Hard Knee compression modes
  • PeakStopPlus limiting for setting maximum allowable level with minimal distortion
  • SC Ext and SC Mon for setting up and monitoring external devices for gating function
  • True differentially balanced gold-plated XLR and 1/4 inch inputs and outputs.
  • True RMS level detection
  • Precision metering of input level, output level, and gain reduction
  • True stereo or dual mono operation
  • Switchable +4dBu or -10dBV operation per channel
  • Proudly designed, manufactured and tested in the USA

Function Switches
  • SC Ext: Routes the external sidechain input signal to the detector.
  • SC Mon: Routes the sidechain signal to the output, interrupting the normal audio.
  • OverEasy: Activates the OverEasy compression function.
  • Contour: Activates the frequency-dependent detector function.
  • Auto: Activates automatic program-dependent attack and release times, disabling the manual Attack and Release controls.
  • I/O Meter: Switches between monitoring input and output levels on the Input/Output Level meter.
  • Bypass: Activates the direct input-to-output hard-wire relay bypass. Relay automatically hard-wire bypasses unit at power-down and provides a power-on delay of 1.5 sec.
  • Operating Level (rear panel): Switches the nominal operating level between -10 dBV and +4 dBu simultaneously for both input and output levels.
  • ST Link: Links both channels for stereo operation. Channel One becomes the master.
