The DCX didn't come out that good In the latest test I made. And also a memory card slot that doesn't require a 2 GB card for a few KB!!! Or better: a simple USB connector! I would prefer a product with less possibilities but more parametric filters, reliable correction, the same level meter as the DEQ (adjustable if possible), a limiter with values under -24 dB and precise attack and release settings (like on the DEQ), a faster display (in some cases, you have to wait one second to see the changes on the display), continuous frequency selection (like on the DEQ). Once again, Behringer offers an interesting product with lots of details that aren't thought out. For example, you can select either 138 Hz or 141 Hz but nothing in between! The number of parametric EQs is limited: only one per output!!Ĭrossover and EQ frequencies have been preset. As a consequence you have to set the DCX limiters at -20 dB (-24 dB is the minimum) to get 0 dB. The level meters are not reliable: when the DEQ2496 shows -2 dB, the DCX shows -20 dB. I connected a DEQ2496 in the signal path before the DCX. It's impossible to correct anything with it! Or a +4dB filter at 150 Hz is canceled by a -3dB filter at 500 Hz and the result is a high-frequency boost. +6dB really means a +4dB boost and a -2dB attenuation on another frequency. With the DCX, solving a frequency response problem will only create more problems. Generally, EQs are made to correct frequency response. The crossover filters are not very effective: they don't really cut the frequency spectrum (they only attenuate a couple dBs) and the slope displayed is not correct.

In a 3-way stereo configuration you can't make any changes to the settings because the free processing power falls under 1%!!! So you have to choose between crossover or EQ. Even without doing anything you only have 47% free processing power left

The input summing architecture is not clear and the user's manual doesn't help a lot.įirst the processing resources. It's hard to understand the settings in the beginning. (Originally written by Lout/translated from Audiofanzine FR)
