DBX 266XS Dual Compressor/Gate

Q: It says 2 channels. Are these channels mono or stereo (that is, 2 total or 4 total)?

Hi. These have 2 mono channels. There is a switch on the front which gangs the 2 channels together with the same settings if you wish to use it as a single stereo compressor. Please feel free to give me a call on 07788931317 to discuss your requirements and to get our most up to date competitive prices.Ben

Q: Can l use it in a sound system

Yes you can. I've always some form of compressor on a front of house PA system. The 266 is ok but for not a lot of money more you could get something a lot better. The stereo couple button is useful. When that is pressed what you set on channel 1 (L) is automatically matched on channel 2 (R).

Q: what is the difference between a 266 and a 286 (excpet the price) would the 266 be okay for voiceovers ?

Yes! you will be okay with the DBX 266xs, it is really 1 to 2 separate compressors ie you can use it as stereo L/Rt or two separate compressors (mono) expander & Gate also works on both channels separately or collectively.great product for its price. the only gripe I have is that it has no power button. Tip! you will get more versatility when used in conjunction with a Patch Bay! to give you more routing options :)

Q: Is the device working on 220 volts

I don't know, honestly - I'm in the UK on whatever voltage system is used here and the unit works perfectly.
