DBX 1215 Dual Channel 15-Band Graphic EQ

DBX 1215

Dual Channel 15-Band Equalizer

dbx 1215 Overview: The dbx 1215 is a dual-channel, 15-band 2/3 octave graphic equalizer. It was designed to meet the needs of the most demanding sound reinforcement environments while offering the simplicity of straightforward controls.

The sliders of 1215 are 45mm center-detent with two selectable boost/cut ranges for precise gain adjustments. The unit features high-pass filters with bypass, active balanced input and output connections, chassis/signal ground-lift capabilities for quick hum isolation, and an internal power supply. Multiple input and output configurations are provided for ease of use. The XLR and 1/4" TRS connectors use active balanced, low-noise circuitry, with the addition of barrier strips.

The dbx 12 Series Equalizers were precision engineered to provide years of maintenance-free operation in any application. The magnetically isolated transformer, electronically balanced/unbalanced inputs and servo balanced/unbalanced outputs, RF-filtered inputs and outputs, and power-off hard-wire relay bypass with 2 second power up delay were steps our engineers took to ensure compatibility for all installations. Only the best components were utilized, yielding a 10Hz to 50kHz frequency response, greater than 90dB SNR (ref +4dBu), less than 0.005% THD +Noise (1kHz at +4dBu), and interchannel crosstalk of less than -80dB from 20Hz to 20kHz. All this attention to detail is contained in a 2U steel/aluminum chassis.
