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.

Indicators

Gain Reduction Meter: 12-segment LED bar graph at 1, 2, 4, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27 and 30 dB
Input/Output Meter: 8-segment LED bar graph at -24, -18, -12, -6, 0, +6, +12, and +18 dBu
Compressor Threshold Meter: 3-segment LED bar graph at Below (-), OverEasy. and Above (+)
Exp/Gate Threshold Meter: 2-segment LED bar graph at Below (-) and Above (+)
Limiter, Thershold Meter: 1 LED to indicate PeakStopPlus limiting
Function Switches: LED indicator for each front-panel switch
