The PEQ 55 has been discontinued. The RPM 2 Programmable Multiprocessor contains more parametric bands, if you don't need front panel control. Rane RPM 2 is a two-channel, programmable DSP that uses the same algorithms as the PEQ 55, with more audio processing capability, in just 1 rack space. It is configured with Drag Net software.
The Rane PEQ 55 won a 2003 PAR Excellence Award from Pro Audio Review! Unless you truly have golden ears, most people have a hard time knowing exactly where to set each control. Luckily there are several computer-based tools available to help.
Can I use the XLR and 1/4" and Euro outputs at the same time?
Yes. Both sets of output connections may be used simultaneously. However only one input may be used at a time. If you combine a unbalanced 1/4" with a balanced XLR you could create a ground loop problem. See "Sound System Interconnection" below.
