Essential Information About the dbx DriveRack PA2 Sound Processor



  • Next-generation AutoEQ for fast and precise calibration with RTA microphone (not included).

  • AFS Enhanced effective feedback suppression, preserving the system's tonal balance.

  • Step-by-step setup assistant with access to predefined speaker parameters.

  • Ethernet network control from compatible Android, iOS, Mac, and Windows devices.



DriveRack Expertise, a Benchmark in Speaker Management Systems


The dbx DriveRack PA2 continues the legacy of DriveRack sound processors, renowned for their reliability on tour and in fixed installations. This generation offers faster algorithms and a modernized interface while maintaining the sound quality and robustness that have made the brand famous.



Who Is It For and What For?


Ideal for contractors, performance venues, DJs, houses of worship, and music bars, the PA2 optimizes the chain between the console and amplifiers. It protects your speakers, speeds up setup, and ensures consistent sound reproduction from one venue to another, whether using a full-range system or a 2- or 3-way configuration.



Key Features and Innovations



Ultra-fast AutoEQ


The AutoEQ algorithm automatically corrects level and frequency response within seconds. Using an RTA microphone to listen to the room, it performs a sweep and applies corrections via parametric EQs for precise and repeatable calibration.



AFS Enhanced Feedback Suppression


The advanced AFS feedback suppression acts faster and more precisely, preventing unwanted hums and whistles without altering the sonic character of your sound system.



Guided Setup Assistant


The built-in guide walks you through each step: levels, AutoEQ, feedback elimination, and selection of speaker presets offered by major manufacturers, ensuring reliable results even under tight deadlines.



I/O Management and Precision Filtering


With 2 balanced XLR inputs and 6 balanced XLR outputs, the PA2 covers most modern sound reinforcement systems. Active filtering adapts to full-range, 2-way, or 3-way systems, complemented by alignment delays, a dbx limiter, and a sub-harmonic synthesizer to reinforce bass foundation.
