220i
Congratulations on your purchase of the dbx®220i! The dbx 220i processor was designed to
provide Installers with programmable system processing along with dbx’s Advanced Feedback
Suppression™ (AFS™) algorithm for superior system control and performance. While the 220i
offers all the tools necessary for processing a system, from EQ and De-Essing to Limiting and
Ducking, the thing that sets this product apart from the competition is the inclusion of our
patent-pending AFS™ algorithm that offers feedback filters with Qs up to 1/80th of an octave.
This ensures that the music, or speech that comes in, goes out unblemished by the feedback
detection and elimination process. In hundreds of demonstrations of this patent-pending algo-
rithims, people have tried to discern between the original and processed signal, but to no avail.
Beyond the processing that the 220i is capable of, the 220i also offers control from the ZC series
wall panel controllers. These controllers provide convenient remote control capability of
Program change, Zone output volume and Muting. The zone controllers are easy to install using
CAT5 cable and fit in standard wall boxes.
This manual will be your guide to understanding the full functionality of the powerful 220i. By
combining the different components, the configuration possibilities are limitless. After you have
become familiar with the unit, we encourage you to experiment and find the most effective and
efficient way to run your system by utilizing the powerful processing of the 220i.
The dbx 220i is the most effective way to manage all aspects of post mixer processing and sig-
nal routing. The 220i essentially becomes the only device that you will need between the mixer
and the power amps. The following are just some of the features of the 220i.
220i features:
• Advanced Feedback Suppression (AFS™)
• Graphic and Parametric EQ
• Compressor
• Limiting
• Auto Gain Control (AGC)
• Noise Gate
• De-Esser
• Ducker
• Bandpass Filters
• 2x2 Matrix Mixer
• 1.3 Seconds of Delay
• RS-232 PC GUI control
• Mic/Line Inputs
• Wall Panel Control
• Security Lockout

In addition to the amazing menu of processing available, the 220i also affords you the luxury
of utilizing dbx Zone-Controller series wall-mounted control panels that will allow you to
remotely control various parameters of the 220i. The ZC-1 offers remote programmable Volume
control to any installation using the DriveRack 220i. The ZC-2 provides programmable Volume
and Mute control. Both the ZC-1 and ZC-2 can be programmed to outputs of the DriveRack
220i. The ZC-3 allows Program Selection on the 220i. The ZC-4 also offers Program Selection
via Contact Closure inputs for Room Combining applications. Up to six Zone Controllers can
be used with a single DriveRack 220i, and can either be wired in series or parallel. The ZC-
BOB was created to accommodate “home-run” or parallel wiring to the unit. With a maximum
length of 1,000 ft., the Zone Controllers offer a simple way to create a simple yet elegant solu-
tion to many installation applications.

Section 2 220i
For your convenience, all editing functions of the DriveRack 220i are performed via the includ-
ed Driveware GUI. This section has been created to act as a tutorial for performing various
editing aspects of the unit.Programs
The philosophy of the DriveRack 220i is built around the idea of a program.
Programs
A program consists of processing modules configured to form the desired signal path. The pro-
cessing modules and all their parameters are saved as part of the program. The quickest way
to get up and running with the DriveRack 220i is to select one of the programs that are already
configured. If modifications are needed then the program can be reconfigured to select the
appropriate processing modules and parameters can be edited to taste. All module parameters
are part of the program and as such they are saved off when the program is stored. These para-
meters are also saved as part of the program file when the program is exported to a computer.
Utilities and Mutes
Utilities and Mutes are global functions and are independent of the program. Utilities and Mutes
are not saved as part of the program when it is stored but they can be saved as part of the
device file. This can be helpful as Utilities can be set up just once rather than having to set up
the utilities for each program. The same applies to Mutes; output Mutes can be used regard-
less of the program that is being recalled. If the need arises to mute an output as part of a pro-
gram and have that level remain with the program, the output level can be set to –inf in the
Matrix Mixer. This means that no matter whether the output mute is engaged or not, that out-
put will have no output level.
Once the software has been loaded and the DriveRack unit is connected via the included Null
Modem cable, run the DriveWare Graphic User Interface (GUI) by double clicking on the appli-
cation icon. You will see the DriveWare window open with an icon of the DriveRack 220i unit.
Double clicking on the unit will open the unit to the program screen where you will be able
to see the processing modules and the configuration.
There are three different views within the DriveWare GUI; Venue view, Unit view, and Module
view. Venue viewprovides you with an overall system view of the DriveRack network includ-
ing other DriveRack units if you are using 480 series DriveRack units that can be networked
together. Double clicking on a unit icon in the Venue view takes you to the Unit view. Unit
view (often called program screen) provides you with a graphic representation of the configu-
ration of the individual DriveRack unit, including all the processing modules and their positions
in the signal path. Unit view offers access to meters and output muting, program selection and
loading, processing configuration, program import and export, program storing, as well as util-
ity menu control. Double clicking on the processing module takes you to the Module view.
Module view(also called edit screen) provides access to the processing and utility parameters.
Editing of parameters is done in Module view.

Configuration of the DriveRack units is done in Unit view. The DriveRack 220i configuration
can be changed by clicking on the CONFIG button. Once the CONFIG button has been
clicked, the modules can be changed by right clicking on the module to be changed. For
example, if you want to change the processing module in one of the inserts, you simply right-
click on that module and you will be able to select another processing block as well as unlink
that module (if it is stereo linked). To link modules in stereo, click on one of the module that
you want to link. While holding the Ctrl button click the other module that you want to link
it to; both modules should now be highlighted. By right-clicking on either module you can
now select LINK. Once the desired configuration is created you must click the CONFIG but-
ton once more to load the configuration.
To edit a processing module double click on that module. Adjust the module to taste; make
sure that the module is engaged, this is usually indicated by the module on button in the upper
left corner of the parameter section. Although process editing is done in real-time, the changes
can either be discarded or accepted by selecting the OK or CANCEL button.
Parameters can be copied and pasted between channels in the DriveRack devices. From the
program screen right click on the module that you want to copy and select Copy. To paste,
right click on a like module and select Paste. Obviously you cannot copy parameters to and
from unlike modules, for example from a Compressor to a Parametric EQ.

The input and output level meters and mute buttons can be seen by clicking on the METER
button in the upper right corner of the program screen. Outputs can be muted by clicking on
the mute buttons.
The LOAD button is used for loading one of the programs in the program table. Right click
on the program name (directly below the large 220i in the upper left hand corner of the Unit
view), to see a list of programs. Select one of the programs by clicking on it. At this point this
new program is not loaded; to load this program click on the load button.
Programs can be stored in the DriveRack unit or saved on the computer. To store a program
in the DriveRack unit the GUI software must be on-line with the unit. The DriveRack 220i
allows both program naming and along with that name you can also select where in the user
program table you would like to store the program. Clicking the STORE button enters the

the “Replace an Existing Program” button is selected and click OK.
To save a program to your computer click on File on the Menu Bar and select Save, then select
Export Program – you are exporting a program from the DriveRack unit to the computer. You
will then be taken to a folder where you can save this DriveWare Program (.dwp). You can
also save the DriveRack device file (.dwd). The difference between the device file and the pro-
gram file is the device file saves all the utility information in addition to the program informa-
tion. To import a program from the computer select File on the Menu Bar and click on Open,
then select the file you would like to import to the DriveRack unit.
