Hi everyone - does anyone now of an equaliser that also
acts as a compressor/limiter?

Thanks a million,
Chris.

How about the Behringer Ultradrive?

It's a digital crossover, with parametric EQ, limiters, expander/compressor and delays on each of its 6 outputs (and some of above on inputs too)

Its 1U high and can be had for £165 at the moment. PM me if you'd like to know where from.

Might be able to replace a few other bits of kit in your rack along the way too.


I've got one (and i paid £275 for mine) and i say its the best bit of kit i own.

hadn't realised that we could post that info now...

Thomann are in Germany but do quote prices in GB£ and postage is very reasonable. Check out all their kit, the T.amps are good and very cheap (same as Audiohead amps, just rebranded) same with T.bone mics. Their 'The Box' range of powered speakers are good value too and said to sound as good as (in some opinions better) than the EV SX300


In the uk...

Yeah, noticed that Thomann had their own branded equivalent of the Chauvet DMX50 cotroller for around £65 too - most places here are around £150 for the Soundlab/Skytec/Chauvet branded version.

They do specials every now and then too - got a QSC RMX2450 for £399

I recently set up a DBX Driverack, they're like a cheaper version of the industry-standard BSS Omnidrive. It will do everything you want and they're on special offer from most retailers at the mo.

Read the reviews though, in a lot of tests, people say they don't sound so good, with even the Behringer coming out better in blind tests.

The t.bone mics are excellent value for money, pound for pound.

I ended up getting a rack full of Behringer equipment -
at least you know what you're getting even if the manuals
need a little work.

Thanks for the help, Chris.
