dbx 266XS Compressor Gate

Most compressor/gates provide less than musical compression, coupled with gating that swallows transients—or closes early, cutting off decay and reverb tails. The superb engineering in the 266XS ensures that both its compression and gating provide versatility and excellent sonic performance in situations where other compressor/gates typically produce undesirable processing artifacts. When using the 266XS’s AutoDynamic™ Attack and Release controls, artists and engineers will find that the center settings deliver classic dbx compression, while the full control range produces voicings that extend from slow “leveling” to aggressive “peak” limiting.

The Auto Dynamic™ circuitry continuously adjusts the actual attack and release times to optimally match the program material. Since users aren’t restricted to using the Attack and Release controls only in “peak” operation, they can tailor the response of the 266XS for individual tracks, mixed program material, special effects or system protection. As a result, production studios can use the versatile 266XS to replace multiple “single-purpose” limiters while sound reinforcement users can standardize on the 266XS for all of their applications. Separate precision LED displays for gain reduction, compression threshold and gate threshold allow quick, accurate setup, while the 266XS’s intuitive operation lets users easily smooth uneven levels, add sustain to guitars, squash drums or tighten up mixes.
