DBX 266XSV Dual Compressor/Gate for Professional Audio Dynamics Processing Applications, (DBX266XSV)

DBX 266XSV Dual Compressor/Gate (DBX266XSV)

The DBX 266XSV is a professional dual-channel compressor/gate designed to provide advanced dynamics processing for live sound, recording, broadcast, installed audio, and sound reinforcement applications. Combining high-quality compression and noise gate functionality in a single unit, the 266XSV helps maintain consistent audio levels, enhance signal clarity, and reduce unwanted background noise for professional-quality sound performance.

Featuring two independent processing channels, the 266XSV offers flexible operation for stereo signals or dual-mono applications. Its compressor section helps control dynamic range by reducing excessive peaks and balancing signal levels, resulting in smoother, more controlled audio output. This makes it ideal for managing vocals, instruments, speech systems, and other audio sources that require consistent volume and improved intelligibility.

The integrated gate function helps eliminate unwanted noise, hum, and low-level background sounds when audio signals fall below a user-defined threshold. This improves overall system cleanliness and reduces distractions in both live and recorded audio environments.

Designed for ease of use, the 266XSV features intuitive front-panel controls that allow precise adjustment of compression and gate parameters to suit a wide variety of applications. Built with DBX’s trusted audio processing technology, it delivers transparent sound quality, reliable operation, and professional-grade performance.

Its rugged rack-mount chassis ensures dependable integration into professional audio systems, making it suitable for permanent installations, portable sound systems, recording studios, and broadcast facilities.
