A Pro-level EQ That’s a Snap to Use

The dbx 1215 is a great-sounding, easy-to-use tool for sculpting the sound of your rig. While its controls are super straightforward, this dual 15-band graphic equalizer boasts plenty of pro-level features. Switchable ±6dB/±15dB boost and cut ranges enable you to select your desired level of precision, while an 18dB/octave 40Hz Bessel low-cut filter makes minimizing low-frequency mud a piece of cake. You’ll appreciate the 1215’s low-noise design, which includes a magnetically isolated transformer and servo-balanced, RF-filtered inputs and outputs. The 1215 includes a power-off hardwire relay bypass with 2-second power-up delay to safeguard against damage and extend the life of your gear. The dbx 1215 features 15 2/3-octave bands with 45mm sliders, and the live sound gurus here at Sweetwater appreciate its steel/aluminum chassis.

Sound Sculptor

Placed this unit between my keyboard rig mixer and my powered speakers. I have real nice synths and the mixer is top-shelf stuff, but I was never able to get that really nice "headphone" smooth sound out of my powered speakers with just the 3 band eq on the mixer channels. No matter how much I adjusted the mixer, the speakers were just too harsh in the upper mids and top end, especially at higher volumes. So I bought this dbx 1215 EQ. I run either the main or the Aux outs from my mixer into the EQ, and the output of the EQ into my speakers. What an absolutely tremendous difference. I now have complete control of how the speakers sound since, with this EQ, I was able to eliminate the unwanted frequencies from my speakers. This is just fantastic and I kick myself that I didn't do it years ago. Instead of spending tons of cash on new speakers, try this first. Besides, you'll always be able to use this EQ, no matter what speakers you own now or in the future. Very solidly built, quiet, pro feel to the sliders and lots of input/output options for connecting to your gear. I should have bought this a long time ago.

Solves the problem!

I put this between my keyboard and powered speakers (Neumann KH 120 A). Allowed me to slightly tweak equalization with resulting noiseless, great sounding output finally, virtually identical to the headphones. Yea!! I had tried high quality mixer, but could not get eq right with 3 band controls and with the mixer alas there was some loss of the very high frequencies with resultant sound coloration. I then tried DI box and although the sound was great the levels were too low. So with this equalizer I got the best of all worlds. Hope this helps.
