Drag NetWhat can you do with an RPM 2?

Simply put, the RPM 2 has a ton of DSP horsepower. Combine this power with the flexibility of 100% drag and drop system design and the RPM 2 fits the bill for a variety of applications, simple or complex. Such as:

A two-channel digital delay. Five seconds of total delay is available in the RPM 2. Store and recall different delay settings using the RPM's 24 presets.

A 2-channel Graphic Equalizer using Rane's Perfect-Q technology. Think of it as a DEQ 60 Graphic Equalizer without the sliders, or as a replacement for the discontinued RPE 228d. Store and recall different EQ curves using presets.

Add a limiter on each output for speaker protection:

...and 15 bands of parametric filters per channel for precise EQ adjustments:

...and a stereo compressor for dynamics control:

...and we think you get the idea.

Or how about a small restaurant or office system with two zones requiring volume control and source selection? Need Automatic Gain Control (AGC) on each input to keep levels under control? Yep, got that covered too.

One last example and then you're on your own: add a paging mic and Rane MS 1b Microphone Preamp to the system (the RPM 2's inputs are line-level only) and now you have a simple two-zone music/paging system. A sleeker solution is the RPM 2m which has mic/line inputs, eliminating the need for the MS 1b.
