Great sounding dynamics control for any type of program material is what you get with the dbx 266XL Compressor/Gate. With "goof proof" operation, it enables you to smooth uneven levels, add sustain to guitars, fatten drums or tighten up mixes. The 266XL provides two independent channels and can operate in dual mono or stereo modes. Each channel features dbx OverEasy® or hard knee compression and a program-adaptive expander/gate with new gate timing algorithms to ensure smooth release.

Professionals and newcomers alike will find that the 266XL Compressor/Gate sets up rapidly and musically the first time it is used, especially with the Auto attack and release function. Advanced applications are now easy, with the dbx 266XL's full sidechain functionality, and the ability to use either hard knee or OverEasy® compression algorithms. Inputs and outputs are balanced on XLR or 1/4" TRS connectors.
