All of these units are in very good condition. I'm the original owner of all of them and they've only been used in my smoke-free home project studio.

It's selling for about $540 these days but I'll let it go for $300 plus shipping and paypal fees.

The DriveRack Studio offers dual XLR inputs and six XLR outputs, dual channel graphic EQ, classic dbx Compression, multiple crossovers, parametric EQ and a built-in real time audio analyzer. In addition, this audio toolbox provides the end user with 24 custom presets that have been specifically written and designed to work in tandem with the most popular studio reference monitors available.

The DriveRack Studio continues the legacy of DriveRack series, which has been created by the company that has been redefining the standard of signal processing for more than 30 years.

Samson S-phone 4-channel Headphone Mixer/Amplifier with 3 Outputs per Channel and LED Monitoring
This is selling for about $160 but I'll part with it for $90 plus shipping and paypal fees.

The S phone is a versatile single rack space four channel headphone amplifier, loaded with advanced features that provide tremendous flexibility for monitor and cue mixing. The Master Input features an input level and LED meter to control and display the overall stereo input.
Each of S phone's four channels includes three Headphone Outputs with an overall Volume control and individual Level meters. A convenient Stereo Auxiliary input is available on each channel so that individual line signals from direct or buss outputs can be mixed with the main stereo input. The Balance control adjusts the ratio of the Main and Auxiliary signal or the left to right balance (based on the setting of the ST/2CH switch) so that each headphone mix can be further tailored for a particular listener's individual needs ("More Me").
For greater sonic control, S phone also features a 2-band equalizer on each of the four channels. A master Stereo Aux input on the front panel is also supplied for inserting a second signal to all headphones.
  • Four Channel Headphone Mixer/Amplifier
  • Two Master Stereo Inputs plus Stereo Link Output
  • 8 Segment LED Metering on Each Channel and Master
  • Two Band Equalizer on Each Channel
  • Three Headphone Outputs per Channel (One Front Panel and Two Rear Panel Outputs)
  • Auxiliary Input with Balance Control provides four Channels of "More Me" Mixing
  • Mute and Stereo/2 Channel Mode Switches on Each Channel
  • Maximum Output Power on Each Channel (Regardless of Headphone Impedance)

TC-Helicon VoicePrism Voice Formant and Pitch Processor
This is a very cool box and really easy to use (you can make yourself sound like Barry White if you want). There's a great review of it here. I've seen this selling from $500 to $800 but I'll sell this one for $350 plus shipping and paypal fees.

The TC Helicon Voiceprism is a harmony voice processor. It allows you to create up to 4 additional voices from your voice. You just connect a microphone to its input and you are ready. The great thing about this vocal processor is that it uses formant processing so that the additional voices don't sound fake; Darth Vader or munchkins unless you want to sound like that. Each of the 4 voices is fully adjustable and can be triggered through a MIDI keyboard (playing the harmonies on the MIDI keyboard while singing the lead instrument), or you can select on of the many Keys; C, Eb, etc... and scales; Dorian, major, minor, etc... and away you go. You can instantly create your own boy band (or girl) or sound like the millions bucks.
The VoicePrismPlus also offers the great TC electronic processing: compression, EQ, Delay, Chorus, Flange, and reverbs. You can also change how your voice sounds by using the TC Helicon voice type select where you can sound add breath or make your voice have a growl, sound raspy or nasal. You can also add resonance and change the inflection of your voice.
Both a lead voice and harmony processor under preset control, it includes lead-voice modeling and formant processing, 4 fully adjustable harmony voices, TC Electronic compression, EQ, delay, chorus, flange, and reverbs. It offers a variety of ways to process vocal input: add breath, growl, rasp, head and chest resonance, inflection, or vibrato. AES/EBU and S/PDIF I/Os are included. The unit runs at 24-bit, 44.1 or 48 kHz, and a high-quality mic preamp couples with T.C. effects. The mic preamp also has 48V phantom power.

I have a 100% feedback rating on ebay with 200+ transactions (ebay is - jtc_111).
 
The Voiceprism is sold.

The DBX DriveRack Studio is still available. I'll mention one feature of the DBX unit that is very useful: you can hook a reference mic up to it and it will adjust your monitors to better suit your room. This could be really helpful to people who are recording in untreated rooms.

And I'm still negotiable on the price.
 
How about I reduce the price of the DriveRack to $250? Anyone?
 
If no one is interested in the dbx DriveRack Studio, I'll throw it to the Ebay hordes ...I'll hold off for a couple of days ...last shot to get it here for cheap!
