Offers expanded input processing and includes automatic feedback suppression, that detects feedback and eliminates the frequencies that cause it.

Another important part of the input process is the graphic equalizer. 31 bands, the parametric of 12 bands and notch filtering capabilities, dbx compression, Sub-harmonic synthesis for enhanced bass impact, backline delay and noise gates.

Multi-crossover configurations are possible for all-range and full-range modes. 2 y 3 ways. Besides, The output process features auto-equalization 12 bands (8 auto-equalization bands and 4 user configurable bands), dbx compression, automatic gain control, sub-harmonic synthesis, noise gates, delays for towers (up to 1000ms per output), parametric equalizer 8 bands (for speaker adjustment), dbx limiting and transducer alignment delays.

Connecting a dbx RTA-M measurement microphone to the RTA microphone input allows you to use the proprietary dbx Level Assist and AutoEQ algorithms to automatically equalize the room and achieve a more compensated frequency response..
