Analogue signals, digital processing
The Behringer DCX2496 Ultra-Drive Pro is an affordable, scalable and highly versatile digital loudspeaker management system which performs extremely well in all kinds of environments. It features high-spec, 24 bit/96 kHz AD/DA converters, extensive on-board processing tools and routing options, and a respectable dynamic range of 120dB. Its three inputs (one of which is AES/EBU compatible) and six outputs allow a multitude of routing configurations and each channel is equipped with dedicated processing blocks (EQs, delays and crossovers) to optimise sound depth and coverage. Effective “Zero attack” output limiters are also featured to ensure loudspeaker protection. The DCX2496 Ultra-Drives Pro’s backlit display provides clear and easy access to all these functionalities.
Feature-rich and huge processing power
At its core, the DCX2496’s main stereo input channels (which are SPDIF or AES/EBU compatible) are processed and routed to any combination of its six outputs. A third input is available as an additional line or mic source (which also provides 15V phantom power for measurement mics), as is a fourth ‘internal’ bus on which any combination of the first three inputs can be summed. Each channel features high-grade 24Bit/96kHz Cirrus Logic converters, as well as a suite of DSP-powered processing tools, which include level-dependant dynamic EQs (to control annoying frequencies at high volume, for example), extremely musical parametric EQs (to optimise sound depth) and programmable delays (for coverage and phase control). The output channels also feature ‘brick wall’ limiters for loudspeaker protection, as well as a handy collection of pre-programmed crossover filters, such as the ultra-linear Bessel filter and the double Butterworth (Linkwitz-Riley filter), with roll-offs ranging from a soft-knee 6 dB/octave to a hard-hitting 48 dB/octave.
Control any environment
Thanks to its extensive routing and processing options, the Behringer DCX2496 Ultra-Drive Pro can be used in virtually any setup, ranging from concert venues to cinemas and anything in between. Multiple units can be daisy-chained, meaning that configurations can be scaled to any size. Bar and club owners, for example; can optimise speaker placement and sound coverage very efficiently, controlling basses and sound levels throughout their venue, including convoluted spaces. Of course, the Behringer DCX2496 Ultra-Drive Pro is also popular among live and touring engineers, who may need to regularly re-calibrate their system according to each venue. The adjustable delays on each input and output, as well as the 60 user-defined presets are particular useful in this respect – as are the optional RS-232 and RS-485 interfaces which allow you totally control the Ultra-Drive Pro from your PC. Moreover, these 1U units are rack-mountable, weigh only 3kg and can be easily taken on the road.
About Behringer
The company, which was founded in Germany by Uli Behringer and now manufactures its products in China, has been known for affordable and great-value equipment since its very first product, the Studio Exciter F. An array of mixing consoles (such as the Eurodesk MX8000), signal processors, and later sound amplification and monitoring equipment, has made it possible for countless musicians to fit out their home studios, practice rooms, and mobile PAs within budget limits that were previously unthinkable. The acquisition of other companies, including Midas, Klark Teknik, and TC Electronic, meant that new product groups were added - and also resulted in the technical expertise of these companies being incorporated into product development.
Application examples
The last pages of the DCX2496 Ultra-Drive Pro’s user manual describe the twelve presets available, which provides a good starting point for getting acquainted with the unit. These presets include straightforward set-ups, such as stereo tri-amp operation (i.e. 2 x LMH) or stereo bi-amp with mono subwoofer operation (i.e. 2 x HL + subwoofer), but also more complex combinations (such as three bi-amped stereo pairs with delay lines), and combinations requiring two units (such as full-scale 5.1 cinema settings). Of course, these presets are just a starting point and virtually any routing combinations are possible. Overall, the DC2496 Ultra-Drive Pro is highly versatile and feature-rich. It is easy to use and its sound and sound-processing quality is top-notch. And at its price-point, it definitely constitutes a good bargain.
