The 215s from dbx is a dual channel, 15 band, 2/3 octave graphic equalizer housed in a single space, rack mount chassis. The processor is equally suitable for live applications, audio installations, and for use in a studio.
The unit features 20mm non-conductive sliders that can be set to either +/-6dB or +/-12dB of boost or cut. A global control provides +/-12 dB of input gain. A 12dB per octave, 3dB down at 50Hz low-cut filter can also be switched in if required.
- From its extended frequency response and excellent dynamic range, to the quality components and meticulous attention to detail, the 215s offers exceptional sound and rugged reliability.
- Dual channel, 15-band, 2/3-octave constant Q graphic EQ
- Switchable boost/cut ranges of +/-6 or +/-12dB
- 20mm non-conductive sliders
- 12dB per octave, 3dB down at 50Hz low-cut filter
- +/-12 dB input gain range
- Front panel bypass switch
- 4-segment LED ladders for monitoring output levels
- XLR and 1/4" TRS inputs and outputs
