UPGRADING FROM A DBX DRIVE RACK PA TO PA2!

First I want to say thank you for watching this video. On my passive system I've been running this driverack PA for quite some years. I got another driverack from one of my guys and now I have a driverack pa2 although they are similar and looks there are a lot of more features on the PA to compared to the PA. again thank you for watching please like And subscribe. you can also follow me at the other social media platforms and are listed below.

Hey DJ Redd, can you make a video on how to setup the DBX Drive Rack PA2? And anyway you can make a video on how to setup side fill speakers and drum monitor with a sub the correct way?

[@THEREALDJREDD]

Ill do that next time I have time at my warehouse. Great request. Thanks.

First time watching. I am looking for this comparison for different drive rack models. I think I need one, but I don’t need anything fancy.

I have a question please.
I’m a mobile DJ looking at purchasing one of these to further tailor/enhance/limit front of house sound. The remote app also appeals to me.
My system is 2x EV EKX-12P active tops and 2x EV EKX-18SP active subwoofers. The DSP control on these speakers have the option to system-match the crossover i.e. the high pass for the tops can be set to EKX-18SP (or other EV models) and the low pass for the subs can be set to EKX-12P (or other EV models).
Would I be able to route the signal flow/configure the settings in the DriveRack so the above is maintained?
I don’t want the DriveRack crossover controls to supersede the speakers’ system-matched settings.
N.B. The outputs on EKX subwoofers are hardwired as a thru output (no DSP out) i.e. they’re always sending a full range signal (see this video explanation - EV ELX200, EKX & ETX Crossovers | How they work and why they are not good options for column arrays - UA-cam).
Any help appreciated.

Yes, you can use the driverack with the EVs. I've used it with the EKX15p (mains) & ETX18sp (subs). I've upgraded my DriveRack to the PA2 and is using it with my iPad or Macbook. The EVs DSP is pretty good and probably better than most that I've seen and heard. I understand your concern when it comes to the output on the sub being a THRU and not DSP. I actually like it that way so that "I" can set the cut off frequencies to my liking. There are some SUBS that have a THRU & Filter. With the EKX 12 & 18 that system is a great for FOH.

@@THEREALDJREDD Brilliant, thanks so much for such a quick and comprehensive reply - looks like a PA2 and an RTA mic will be my next purchases!
