TM500 Features
• Onboard digital signal processor (DSP) with 256 high-quality effects, including
reverbs, delays, flanging and chorus.
• Phantom power switch enables you to use the TM500 with high-quality condenser
microphones. When turned on, 48 volts of phantom power is provided to the mic
connectors of all channels.
• Two Aux sends per channel (one pre-fader and the other post-fader) allow you to
route multiple signals to the internal DSP or to external signal processors.
• Dual stereo aux returns—with dedicated front-panel level controls—give you the
ability to blend in the return signal from the internal DSP and/or external signal
processors or other line-level devices without having to utilize input channels.
• Extensive equalization includes independent 3-band eq for each monophonic
channel and 2-band eq for each stereo channel, with 15 dB of cut or boost for low
(100 Hz) and high (10 kHz) frequencies, and, in monophonic channels, 12 dB of cut
or boost for the mid (1.8 kHz) frequency. In addition, a seven-band graphic master
equalizer allows you to “tune” the output of the TM500 to the particular room
environment you are in—particularly useful for eliminating ringing or feedback
problems. This graphic equalizer can be used in stereo or can be “split” so that one
side affects the main PA and the other side affects stage monitors.
• Constant level Pan controls for each mono channel that allow you to precisely place
each input signal in the left-right plane. In stereo channels, a Balance control
enables you to set the relative levels of the paired signals.
• Center detents for all Pan and EQ controls, making it easy to use the TM500 even in
low-light live performance situations.
• Continuously adjustable wide-range input Trim controls for each channel allow you
to precisely set the correct input and output gain structure.
• Independent 65 mm faders for each channel and for the stereo bus.
•
Pre Fader Listen (PFL) soloing for each channel, allowing headphone monitoring of
individual channels, pre-fader (but post-EQ) without affecting the signal being output
either by the speaker or various line-level outputs.
• Front panel metering system includes a ten-segment level meter and allows you to
view at a glance the continuous levels of the main stereo output and/or Aux sends.
• Peak LEDs for each channel show you at a glance when an input signal is on the
verge of overloading.
• Dedicated status LEDs show main power and phantom power on/off.
• Separate Record out jacks (with dedicated level control) allow you to directly connect
the TM500 to any tape recorder. In addition, a handy Mono output jack provides a
line-level signal for connection to external monitor power amplifiers.
• An independent front-panel headphone output with dedicated volume control for
private monitoring of the main stereo output, Aux sends, or soloed channels.
• Channel inserts for all eight monophonic channels, enabling you to use outboard
signal processors such as equalizers, compressor/ limiters, or noise gates in a
standard “effect loop.”
• Last but certainly not least, affordability. The TM500 has been designed from the
ground up to provide versatility and excellent sound quality at a cost-conscious price.
