He was talking about a DBX 260, way beter in sound then the Behringer!
DBX 260 sounds beter then the DBX driverack PA,
Or a BSS omnidrive or BSS 366T is a good option for around 350 Euro in Belgium (anno 2016)

Behringer DCX is the best processor money can buy unless you are willing to part with Xillica money... which is a step up of 3 to 4 times the price of a DCX.
There is a lot of documented information on here regarding this topic. You are free to introduce your personal opinion, but dont present it like facts.
Facts are widespread both on the web and here as well.
Try for instance:
Also, this topic is over two years old now, i think the TS has found a processor by now.


Just to make sure people are aware, back in 2009 when the post you linked to was written, the Berry DCX was a great processor and great value for money. Think most people would now agree that these days, the db Mark line of processors is a good improvement on the DCX for similar money.  The db Mark XCA range is a wee step up and a few more features, but then yeah, your really up to processors in the £1000 mark to see big improvements, and the Xilica in particular as you end up with FIR processing and all pass filters.

All good and all, the dbmark may be a good unit, but is not available widespread outside the uk or this forum whilst a dcx you can buy on every corner of the street in every country around the globe. So as good as it may be, i dont consider it a serious competitor actually for the time being.
Best regards,
Teun.

Agree. DB mark not so widely available. Also I don't think in any way it's a competitor.

Hey

Yeah agree about the availability. While everyone agrees it's a noticeable improvement in sound quality (most posts on here give that opinion of you have a search) it's not quite as widely available it's true.

Should help now that Blue Aran stock them though, so should see quite a few more out and about

Monacor DSM 48Lan is an upgrade (and imo the "first" really worth it) over Behringer DCX as it has:
+ 4 ins 8 outs
+ allpass filters
+ crossover filters on the inputs
+ peak limiter and compressor for better driver protection
+ more processing power (10 PEQs per in and out channel)
+ a good software (ipad, mac or pc)
+ 4 different access levels with seperate passwords
+ the SUM signal is changed when an input channel building the sum is changed (! on a DCX, SUM is treated as a "seperate input channel" !)
+ it can be adjusted while playing without making a sound!

- no DEQ
- settings on the unit itself (without the software) are not that intuitive
- not many around
- 650€ (thats still a bargain!)


Its an AllDSP unit.

For dry hire where 3/6 is sufficient, there is simply NO competitor to the DCX.
Name a DSP with dynamic EQs. Is it 4000€+? No? Is it 1500€+ ? No? Its a DCX then Cool

You are comparing a 650 euro unit to a 280 euro unit. Good comparison Corell, keep it up.

Corell called it the first real upgrade step from DCX. Upgrade in performance, but not at the same pricepoint.

being sarcastic? if so, sorry for posting information. Im sure you know every single DSP around and what are its pros and cons?
yes, i am comparing a 280€ unit to a 650€ unit. I have not hidden this fact. I own 3 DCX and i love them. where is the problem?
If not sarcstic, ignore this.
