We congratulate and thank you for your purchase of the dbx 262

Compressor/Limiter. The 262 provides two channels of classic dbx compression

at an unheard of price and boasts features found on our industry standard com-

pressor/limiters, such as:

• OverEasy®/Hard Knee Selection - allows selection between our famous

OverEasy® compression curve and the classic "Hard Knee" curve popularized

by the original dbx 160, 161, and 162.

• True RMS Level Detection - senses the power in the program in a musical

manner, much as the ear does, giving results superior to peak or average

detection.

• True RMS Power Summing™ - When the two channels of the 262 are stereo

coupled together, the RMS energy of the two signals is intelligently summed

together in a way that prevents phase cancellation of the two signals which

would normally cause unmusical compressor action.

• Balanced 1/4" TRS Inputs and Outputs can be used with pro and semi-pro,

balanced or unbalanced systems..

• DC-Controlled Parameters - the signal does not pass through any of the front-
