Maximum Flexibility
Start with its 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.
Remote Ready
Now that remote control is such a hot topic, you'll be glad that 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.
Pure Performance
The ULTRADRIVE PRO's high-power 32-bit SHARC-DSP and ultra-high resolution CRYSTAL/AKM A/D & D/A converter provide outstanding audio performance--and the servo-balanced, gold-plated XLR connectors for all inputs and outputs guarantee excellent connectivity for the years to come.

Premetto subito che lo uso in ambito hi-fi e per grandi diffusori auto costruiti. Realizzare cross-over passivi per sistemi di questo tipo di diffusori mi risulta costoso e con tempi lunghi. I suoi DAC sono più che onorevoli ed il fatto di avere gli amplificatori collegati direttamente agli altoparlanti mi porta vantaggi in termini di suono di gran lunga superiori ad altre scelte come ad esempio gli amplificatori che possono essere dedicati ed esprimere il loro carattere molto meglio. Su tutto una facility davvero comoda: si calcola da solo i tempi di ritardo tra le sorgenti.

Die Weiche läuft an hochwertigen Verstärkern und Lautsprechern in meinem Hörraum. Ich bin durchweg begeistert und überrascht. Die Weiche kann locker mit extrem teueren High End Geräten mithalten. Ganz klare Kaufempfehlung

I am using this as a crossover for a church keyboard ("organ") system. It works well, with 6 channels of output. I am using 4 channels in mono mode for 1. Subwoofer, 2. Low frequency, 3. High frequency, 4. Full range for small monitor speaker. The professional installer who installed the main sound system in our church also used a DCX2496 in stereo mode to drive the main PA speakers, allowing for delays to be programmed for different speaker locations. This is more cost effective than another name brand unit (3 capital letters in the name).

I have an extensive sound system that I use for a variety of events: DJ for dances, weddings, and etc., concerts outside and in gymnasiums or similar venues, PA for political events, school field days, and more. Before I purchased the Behringer Management System I used Left and Right Main Outs, Aux 1 and 2 outs, Efx 1 and 2 outs, and Sub out, along with splitters to send the audio signals to all the amplifiers. With the Behringer I can send a mono out and split the signal. It will EQ each channel you send it to so you can tune your speakers to capitalize on their strengths (whether tweeter, mid, or sub). If you use three or more amps you need this product!

I already have two of these, and with a small upgrade board added (really only necessary if you use the digital audio input) they make an excellent crossover. I can't fault the sound quality, and the flexible protection features make it easy to drive your system close to the limit without fear of melting any expensive driver units. I totally recommend using this product as a superior alternative to a passive crossover.

I must review this order because as soon as the delivery guy handed it to me I noticed some unpleasant issues. It as shipped in it's original box that was all beat up and damaged. Usually amazon would put the item and its box in another box for safer transit. I don't know what happened with this one. When I turned on the unit it malfunctioned; the screen went blank and the LED's on the input A and output 1 just kept blinking. I had to tap it with my hand for it to come back on. It does this in the middle of gigs too. I am very disappointed with amazon with this order. Can't know who to blame for the malfunction!!! However, I am rating the unit 4 stars out of 5 because when it is working it is great to operate and makes the cheapest of speakers sound amazing.

This item is perfect for my needs--tri-amplifying my mains speakers. Love that you can pick several types of filters and frequencies. It is very customizable. However, two years after use, this unit failed on my with blinking lights. This is with RESIDENTIAL use! The reports of Behringer product failures is undeniable. Not sure what professionals do except to buy backup components if they do want to use Behringer products.Funny thing, I ordered on Amazon when it was out of stock. I had a feeling it would be in stock within a week or two and sure enough, I got my email shipping confirmation. I noticed that in stock, the price jumped $50 to what other online vendors were selling at. Glad I got a deal on it!
