1.2 dbx 160: The Original Hardware
dbx
®
Inc. is an American manufacturer of professional audio recording equipment. Founded in
1971 by David E. Blackmer, the company’s most important inventions were the dbx voltage-
controlled amplifier (VCA) and the dbx RMS detector. The original dbx 202 VCA (the "Black
Can" VCA) was built using discrete transistors that were hand-matched while running at an
elevated temperature in an oven. Though noisy and having significant distortion, the dbx 202
units exceeded by far the performance of other early VCAs and were used in most early
automated mixing boards.
In 1976, dbx introduced the dbx 160 compressor. Using dbx’s decilinear VCA, RMS level-
detection circuits and feed-forward gain reduction, this compressor allowed much smoother gain
reduction than its counterparts. The feed-forward gain reduction allowed infinite compression
without excessive distortion or oscillation. It also allowed the compressor to track the attack and
release times of compression based on the signal’s envelope. In addition, the dbx compressor
introduced overeasy compression, which created a soft knee at the start of the compression
process.
