dbx Digital. . . now the possibilities really are endless. The dbx DDP offers you the processing power of digital,
with the great sounds you know and want from the analog world. Plus, with digital technology, we can offer you
more precise control and extended parameters than you could ever have with analog processing. The DDP gives you
a true stereo processor, coupled with dbx True RMS Power Summingª technology, or two independent mono units,
giving you the versatility and power of processors costing many times more. Gating, compression (yes, with
OverEasy¨, all-new VariKneeª, or good olÕ hard knee thresholds), limiting, de-essing and EQ (both in-path and
sidechain) are available in the DDP in any order you want. The possibilities are endless. The LCD display shows
you all the information you need to know, complete with a digital meter that will blow your socks off, featuring
peak and average levels at the same time.
WouldnÕt it be nice if you could see the effects of your entire setup in one place? They are displayed visually in the
form of a graphical curve on the right side of the display, making it a snap to set up even the most challenging of
systems. In fact, it works right out of the box, no Ph.D. required, with 50 great factory preset setups to help you get
started. The DDPÕs operating system offers you the ability to refine and save presets to your liking then name and
save them as your own presets for later recall. Wide ranging gain controls allow for both +4 and -10 operation, with-
out any effort on your part. The 8-step analog LED ladders show you exactly what is coming in and going out of
the DDP. Metering on the display shows the effects of the processing on the signal in real time. Audio performance
is also top shelf, with ultra-wide range 24bit A/D and D/A converters with dbx TYPE IVª Conversion System fea-
turing TSEª (Tape Saturation Emulation) right on board. Digital input/output is also available as an option, giving
you the ability to go all-digital. Full MIDI SysEx automation functionality makes the DDP one of the most versa-
tile processors on the market today.
