All the same great features of the 160SL with a fitted 704X digital output card.
160SLWith the newly improved 160SL, we introduce
the patent-pending AutoVelocity? technology. With AutoVelocity? it is now easier than ever to dial up the exact attack and release effect you are looking for, via the program-dependent, or non program dependent manual mode. Still on board is the venerable dbx Auto mode. Now you can set your maxi-mum preferred settings in manual mode, and let the 160SL do the rest for you, depending on your pro-gram material.
The same striking blue front panel machined from 1/4" aircraft aluminum, handcrafted solid aluminum knobs, LEDs mounted individually in machined stainless steel housings, custom VU meters with peak indicators, and heavy gauge chassis still mark the 160SL as the leader for decades to come. The 160SL combines the best features of all the great dbx compressors, past and present, and gives you more ver-satile performance than ever before. In addition to having the auto attack and release as well as the hard knee threshold characteristics of the classic dbx 160, the 160SL now offers AutoVelocity? manual mode, in addition to our classic OverEasy mode, made standard by the classic dbx 165A. And speak-ing of the 165A, all of its features, including variable attack and release controls, as well as dbx's lat-est limiting algorithm PeakStopPlus?, are included in the 160SL.
FEATURES:• Patent-pending AutoVelocity' circuit
• 127 dB of Dynamic Range
• High-Drive output transformer circuit drives 1000 ft. of Belden cable at +30 dBu with only .007% THD
• Switchable between Hard-knee and OverEasy Compression
• Program-dependent "Auto", AutoVelocity', or fully variable attack and release manual modes
704XThe 704X is the first 96kHz digital output system that offers a 48 bit internal signal processing path, and up to 24 bit digital output in either AES/EBU or S/PDIF formats. The 704X brings the world of super high end digital conversion to the already top-of-the-heap dbx Blue Series processors. That means that now the 786 Precision Preamp has the ability to offer the industry's most pristine signal path in both analog AND digital. And the 160SL is now the most comprehensive analog compression
system with digital output now available.
Think about it, the warmth and smoothness of your analog signal, coupled with a digital system that offers the best performance in headroom management through custom dither algorithms and noise floor shaping. It really is the best of both worlds, and you owe it to yourself to hear how it sounds.
FEATURES:• Sample rates: 44.1 kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz, or 96kHz
• Dither outputs to 16, 20, or 24 bits using TPDF or SNR2 algorithms
• 48 bit internal signal path
• Type IV A/D Conversion System
• Sync input/output
• 2 user-selectable noise shape algorithms
• Gold-plated Neutrik AES/EBU and S/PDIF connectors
• For use with dbx 160S, 160SL or 786
