DBX Driverack+...any thoughts?

[Rockin Mike]

The weight it saves and the auto feedback suppression are the strong points.
All I have in my rack is my board and my Driverack.
I run everything mono and the monitors get the same mix as the mains.
Subs bypass the Driverack and get the main mix; let their builtin crossover sort it out.
Some will say that's a bad setup but it's simple, lightweight and sounds pretty good.

^^ All good points. The FB suppression makes more sense when used with the monitors as this is all-too-frequently the culprit. Since the OP now owns two, why not?

The main advantage to running the subs via Driverack is the para EQ option which allows you to roll-off any trouble spots in the <100 hz territory

For kicks & giggles, auto EQ your FOH (if given the opportunity) in the Flat, Live Venue, and My Band templates. Compare / contrast and find the one that has that "special flavor".

I'm gonna try the My Band first at our next show. Fairly big room so we'll need the boom.

The on-screen graphics are misleading. The resulting sonic footprint is not as exaggerated as one may be led to believe.
