dbx has announced the PowerRack8 power supply for its 500-Series of outboard processors.

The PowerRack8 is an 8-slot, 19-inch rack-mount power source designed to hold up to eight 500-Series processors in a vertical configuration: ‘PowerRack8 provides a convenient, easy way to house, power, connect and configure the dbx-500 Series modules,’ says Jason Kunz, Market Manager for Portable PA and Recording & Broadcast. ‘It’s the perfect add-on for integrating our 500 Series processors into any studio or live installation.’

The PowerRack8 provides eight slots of balanced XLR inputs and outputs along with eight slots of unbalanced quarter-inch inputs and outputs. A 48V phantom power switch is located on the front panel, along with switches for the unit’s flexible, digitally-controlled onboard signal routing with memory function. The unit supplies 350mA per module slot and features rugged, all-metal construction.

The dbx PowerRack8 will ship in Q3 2015, at a suggested retail price of US$699.95.
