dbx / DriveRack PA2 Speaker Processor

This is a standard speaker management system that supports 2-in/6-out. It covers all the necessary PA functions, including crossover, EQ, compressor, limiter, and delay. The wizard makes it easy for anyone to build an optimized speaker system.

DriveRack PA2 provides all the processing you need between the mixer and amplifier, including crossovers, EQ, compressors, limiters, and delays, to optimize and protect your speaker system's performance. Packed with cutting-edge technology, including feedback suppression with dbx's proprietary AutoEQ and latest AFS algorithms, a new delay module, Ethernet control via Android, iOS, Mac, or Windows devices, and updated wizard functionality, DriveRack PA2 is a loudspeaker management processor reborn for a whole new generation. ■ Main Featured Processors

■AUTO EQ
The newly improved AutoEQ algorithm delivers an extremely accurate, fast, and stress-free auto-EQ experience.
Using the RTA Mic for measurement, it instantly measures the acoustic characteristics of the environment. It automatically sets speaker levels and room EQ in just seconds. Adjustments can be made extremely quickly without subjecting the audience to long, annoying pink noise. Additionally, the Level Assist Wizard analyzes speaker levels and left/right balance based on sound pressure level and recommends optimal power amplifier gain settings.

■Advanced AFS Feedback Elimination
The AFS algorithm provides faster, more accurate feedback removal without compromising the system's tone.
By intentionally inducing feedback, it automatically sets a fixed-frequency notch filter at the feedback points in your environment.

■New Wizard Setup Function
The updated wizard provides extremely easy initial setup. By following the setup guide, you can quickly achieve precise acoustic adjustments like those performed by an experienced engineer.
The DriveRack PA2's wizard function provides guidance to maximize speaker system performance. Level balancing, AutoEQ, and feedback suppression are also easily configured. It also provides optimal tuning presets for speakers and amplifiers from various manufacturers. Simply select the speaker or power amplifier model and configuration to complete setup. Presets can also be updated via the Internet.
