This is the ultiment Mr Twiddle piece of gear I have ever seen.Time consuming and dosent sound very well. I have EQ's on my monitors that are more expensive then this and the DBX drive rack is supposed to do that and every thing else. It was designed to be installed so that you have to call the installer to come and adjust your system for you.Not user friendly,bad sound quality.I have to work with it every weekend. :( I say if your knew what you were doing, you would'nt need this piece of.....gear.

Works Wonders For Installed Sound

Posted by RPL from Atlanta GA on Aug 25, 2009

So have been working in the Sound for worship field for about 11 years, I have seen all types of sound equipment come and go. I recently did a install for a medium size worship center that pulls double duty for traditional, contemporary, and youth worship. Needing multiple sound profiles I turned to the Drive rack. The ability to program different master settings is wonderful. A program tailored for speech, for the traditional, music and high spl for the contemporary, and a nice program with heavy limiters for the youth. Setup was self explanatory, most amp and speakers are pre loaded. We use Yamaha clubs and QSC RMX, amps. If you really know what your doing you can take the Driveracks auto settings and really tune a nice sound. I highly recomend and will be installing many more
