Designed to provide incredible flexibility, sonic excellence and intuitive control for performance
applications, the DriveRack
® 4800 is the new flagship of the hugely successful DriveRack family. From
the powerful 96 kHz DSP engine and standard analog and digital I/O, to the QVGA display and
multiple control surfaces, the 4800 provides all the processing, flexibility and control necessary for both
installation and live use. The menu-based Wizard function enhances its capability by making the
DriveRack 4800 easier to use providing a menu based setup procedure including system configuration,
Auto-EQ, and an Advanced Feedback Suppression
™ (AFS ™ ) Wizard.
The DriveRack 4800 is the next generation of the famous DriveRack family, and like its predecessor
it is engineered to provide “Everything you need between the mixer and the power amps”. In keep-
ing with this philosophy the 4800 includes four inputs and eight outputs with both analog and dig-
ital connectivity; a CobraNet option rounds it out offering greater flexibility for large installations.
The 96 kHz processing engine is capable of offering insert processing functions to customize the pro-
cessing path for your application, in addition to the standard system processing functions all with
extremely low latency and extended frequency response. From Signal Routing, EQ, and Bandpass
Filters, to classic dbx
® Dynamics and Feedback Suppression all the processing is available and with
the sonic excellence that you would expect from the world's leading system processing manufacturer.
With all this processing power available, control is of paramount importance. The DriveRack pro-
vides a full color display to speed manual operation; this combined with intuitive front panel con-
trols, an easy to use GUI and optional wall panel controllers means that whether your application is
tour sound or installation, the DriveRack 4800 has what it takes. For more information please visit
