INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing the db. Please take time to read through the entire manual to gain a complete
understanding of the unit’s features, as well as learn helpful procedures, precautions, and tips.
OVERVIEW
The db is designed to be the core of the modern recording artist’s studio. This multifunctional device can be
used for tracking, summing, and mastering your audio tracks, as well as full control of your monitoring
system.
Only the finest quality components have been used in manufacturing this device for the best possible
performance. Each product is entirely hand soldered and assembled, inspected, and tested in-house to meet
our high-quality standards and provide trouble-free use.
All inputs and outputs are fully balanced, and internal signal routing is 99 percent balanced for the lowest
possible noise.
All summing is passive, and switching is handled by high-voltage relays, providing a color-free/noise-free
audio path, with outstanding headroom.
Up to 16 channels of audio summing are provided.
You can use your preamp of choice for desired accuracy or color, or audition different preamps to get the
right tone for each job.
Hard bypass switching is provided for eight stereo insert channels of buss processing, allowing for quick
auditioning of your favorite outboard hardware.
Mid/side processing is provided for controlling the width of your mixes and processing the mid/side signals
independently.
Parallel processing is provided on the buss processing chain and can act as a quick way to A/B the pre/post
signals of the buss.
Track control provides monitor level control for microphones or the instrument you are tracking.
The monitor section allows you to check your mixes quickly on any combination of three stereo monitor
pairs, as well as on headphones. Mixes can be auditioned as stereo or mono audio.
Monitoring output is stepped to provide quick selection of ideal mixing levels.
Delayed monitor activation at power on/off prevents transients from harming your monitors.
The db also provides latency-free monitoring of the instrument that you are tracking, versus backing tracks
playing in your digital audio workstation (DAW).
