DBX 286S Mic Preamplifier  - Information

dbx 286s channel strip processor features four processors that can be used independently or in any combination. dbx 286s comes packed with functionality including switchable +48V phantom power, an 80Hz high-pass filter to remove low frequency hum, and the patented dbx OverEasycompressor. 286s also features a full compliment of metering and status LEDs to visually guide you to achieving the right sound.

dbx 286 has a balanced XLR Mic Input that accepts balanced or unbalanced inputs to easily connect to professional and home studio microphones. The additional 1/4" TRS Line Input can accept balanced/unbalanced signals to process live electronic instruments or pre-recorded tracks at mixdown. Use the Insert jack to interface between the Mic Preamp and the signal processing sections to "loop out" to external processors (such as EQ or delay unit) or to mix the Mic Preamp's signal out to an external destination.

DBX 286S Features:

  • Studio quality Mic Preamp/Channel Strip Processor
  • Classic dbx Compression puts great sound within easy reach
  • Frequency tunable De-Esser reduces sibilance and high frequency distortion
  • Enhancer increases the detail and definition of the high and low frequencies
  • Program adaptive Expander/Gate
  • Insert jack allows you to add an external processor
  • Full compliment of meters and status LEDs
  • +48V Phantom Power
  • Precision detented controls
