DescriptionSpecificationsManualsrelated itemswarranty
The Ultradrive Pro DCX2496 is the ultimate digital loudspeaker management system with an unheard-of audio quality and feature list. It is an indispensable tool for the precise set-up of multiple loudspeaker systems or arrays. Installation contractors, live-sound engineers, cinemas/discotheques/concert hall operators will quickly learn to love this model’s rich features. Signals can be split in various ways to assure precise sound by using the optimal frequency range of each loudspeaker.
  • 3 analog inputs (one suitable as digital stereo AES/EBU input) and 6 analog outputs
  • 24-bit/96 kHz converters for signal integrity and wide dynamic range (113 dB)
  • Several types of EQs (LP/BP/HP) for each input and output
  • "Zero"-attack limiters on all output channels for optimal speaker protection
  • Four different mono and stereo output operating modes
  • Butterworth, Bessel and Linkwitz-Riley filters with slopes from 6 to 48 dB/octave
  • Adjustable delays for all inputs/outputs allow correction for arrival time differences
  • Link option via RS-485 network interface enables cascading of several Ultradrive Pros
  • 60 user-defined internal presets storable via PC software or on PCMCIA card
  • Servo-balanced, gold-plated XLR connectors for all inputs and outputs
  • Internal switch-mode power supply for flexibility (100 - 240 V) and noise-free audio
  • Designed in Germany. Manufactured under ISO9000 certified management system
The Ultradrive Pro DCX2496 features 3 analog inputs (one suitable as a digital stereo AES/EBU input) and 6 analog outputs. You get maximum flexibility in just one rack space. Superb high-end AKM® 24-bit/96 kHz A/D and D/A converters give you ultimate signal integrity and an extreme dynamic range of 113 dB. Easy connection of external digital signals with sampling rates from 32 to 96 kHz is a breeze with the integrated sample rate converter.

There are precise dynamic EQs for level-dependent equalization and extremely musical parametric EQs, selectable for all inputs and outputs, and “Zero“-attack limiters on all output channels guarantee optimal signal and loudspeaker protection. You also get four different mono and stereo output operating modes, all with individual crossover filter types (Butterworth, Bessel and Linkwitz-Riley) with selectable roll-off characteristics from 6 to 48 dB/octave. The delays for all inputs and outputs are adjustable. This allows you to manually or automatically correct for room temperature, phase and arrival time differences. An additional sum signal is easily derived from the A/B/C inputs.

The future-proof Ultradrive Pro software enables single or multi remote control via PC through RS-232 and RS-485 interfaces. And the link option via RS-485 network interface enables cascading of several Ultradrive Pros. A Windows®-based editing software is available for download free of charge. No matter what the future brings, its open architecture assures easy software updates. A PCMCIA slot allows you to store all your settings and recall them anytime you change the location—virtually taking your Ultradrive Pro with you. The servo-balanced, gold-plated XLR connectors for all inputs and outputs guarantee excellent connectivity for the years to come.

Great unit for bi-amping!!
Thursday, August 27, 2009
Daddy0 from Vermilion, OH  

Bought this unit to bi-amp a pair of speakers - it replaces the crossover network in your speakers. But it also does other things as well. If you have an external mic it will "auto align" your drivers, correcting phase anomalies and adjusting for driver offset. Very pleased with the quality and features of the unit. Just wish it was cheaper!!

Excellent product for the price
Thursday, January 22, 2009
DaveH from West Kootenays, B.C.  

I have two of these units in a 5.1 Ht system, feeding two 3 way fronts, and three two ways (centre and surrounds, all either tri-amped or bi-amped. These cross overs are extremely easy to set up, takes all the guess work out of passive crossover design, and allows unlimited experimentation. I am extremely happy with the sound, use all Behringer amps to drive Dayton RS drivers.

Great flexibility and quality
Friday, December 19, 2008
Parts Express Customer from Landisville, PA  

Not that this is an inexpensive item, but it is definitely well designed, high quality and packed with features. Substantially any manipulation of audio signals is supported while maintaining very high fidelity. A nicely designed UI enables understandable management of such a large number of features and flexibilty.
