{"product_id":"dbx-286s-microphone-pre-amp-processor","title":"DBX 286S Microphone Pre-amp Processor","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe DBX 286S Microphone Pre-amp Processor is a full featured Channel Strip Processor that delivers a studio quality microphone\/instrument preamplifier and four processors that can be used independently or in any combination. Why mic up vocals and instruments through a noisy, blurry mixer? The sonically pristine dbx 286s Mic Preamp has all the features you need, including wide-ranging input gain control, switchable +48V phantom power, and an 80Hz high-pass filter to remove low frequency hum, rumble or wind. Use the patented dbx OverEasy compressor to transparently smooth out uneven acoustic tracks or deliver that classic \"in your face\" vocal performance that only a dbx compressor can.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eEliminate vocal sibilance and high frequency distortion from instruments such as cymbals with the frequency tunable De-Esser. Fine-tune the Enhancer HF Detail control to add sparkle and crispness to your tracks and make adjustments to the LF Detail control to add fullness and depth to vocals and bass instruments while cleaning up the muddy low midrange frequencies. And, the separate threshold and ratio controls on the Expander\/Gate allow you to subtly reduce headphone leakage or radically gate noisy guitar amps.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe dbx 286s offers a full compliment of metering and status LEDs to visually guide you to achieving the right sound. The floating balanced XLR Mic Input accepts balanced or unbalanced inputs to easily connect to professional and home studio microphones. The additional 1\/4\" TRS Line Input can accept balanced\/unbalanced signals to process live electronic instruments or pre-recorded tracks at mixdown. Use the Insert jack to interface between the Mic Preamp and the signal processing sections to loop out to external processors (such as EQ or delay unit) or to mix the Mic Preamp's signal out to an external destination.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe cost and hassle of patching together multiple processors for use on one track can be frustrating. The dbx 286s provides you with all the mic processing you need in one box, with the shortest, cleanest signal path to keep your music sounding its best.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Specification:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMic Preamp Connector: \u003c\/strong\u003eXLR Floating balanced, Pin 2 Hot\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMic Preamp Input Impedance: \u003c\/strong\u003e~4.2kΩ\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMic Preamp gain: \u003c\/strong\u003e0dB to +60dB\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMic Preamp Phantom Power: \u003c\/strong\u003e+48VDC, applied to XLR pins 2 and 3 through 6.81kΩ resistors\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCMRR: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u0026gt;40dB, typically 55dB\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMic Preamp max input level: \u003c\/strong\u003e0.2Vrms, Gain = 30dB\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMic Preamp Equivalent Input Noise (EIN): \u003c\/strong\u003e-125dBu, 22Hz-22kHz, 150Ω source impedance\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInput Connectors: \u003c\/strong\u003e(line) Floating balanced, TIP Hot\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInput Impedance: \u003c\/strong\u003e(line) 10kΩ unbalanced, 20kΩ balanced\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInput Gain Range: \u003c\/strong\u003e(line) -15dB to +45 dB\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Connector: \u003c\/strong\u003e1\/4\" TRS: Normalled; tip is Send, ring is Return\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Impedance: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u0026gt;5kΩ (ring-return); 100Ω (tip-send)\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Max Level: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u0026gt;+21dBu; \u0026gt;+20dBm (600Ω load-tip)\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Noise: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u0026lt;-84dBu, unweighted (20Hz-20kHz); LINE GAIN Control set to 0dB\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Distortion: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u0026lt;0.01% THD, 20Hz-20kHz, +10dBu\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput Connectors: \u003c\/strong\u003e1\/4\" Balanced\/Unbalanced TRS Connectors\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput Impedance: \u003c\/strong\u003e100Ω unbalanced, 200Ω balanced\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMax Output: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u0026gt;+21dBu, \u0026gt;+20dBm (600Ω load)\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGain Adjustment Range: \u003c\/strong\u003e-30dB to +10dB\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency Response: \u003c\/strong\u003e20Hz to 20kHz, +0.5, -0.5dB\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompressor Threshold Range:\u003c\/strong\u003e -40dBu to +20dBu\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompressor Ratio:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026gt;4:1 For input levels beyond 20dB above threshold\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMax Compression:\u003c\/strong\u003e 30dB\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDe-esser Characteristic:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wideband Gain Reduction\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExpander\/Gate Threshold Range:\u003c\/strong\u003e OFF to +15dBu\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExpander\/Gate Ratio:\u003c\/strong\u003e Adjustable 1.5:1 to 10:1\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExpander\/Gate Max Depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026gt;50dB\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower Consumption:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15W\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOperating Voltage:\u003c\/strong\u003e DO: 120VAC 60Hz, 100VAC 50\/60Hz; EU: 230VAC 50\/60Hz\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOperating Temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F)\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.75\" x 5.75\" x 19\" (4.5cm x 14.6cm x 48.5cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnit Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.5 lbs\/2.04 Kgs\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.54 lbs\/2.97 Kgs\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DBX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41071738978363,"sku":"H-DBX-286S","price":275.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0078\/4616\/6587\/products\/f8f0d809-ee25-49cf-91e4-ac584c4d9080.jpg?v=1673661392","url":"https:\/\/sharp-commerce-test-store.myshopify.com\/products\/dbx-286s-microphone-pre-amp-processor","provider":"Sharp Commerce Test Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
