MIXER

The TM500 is a practical 12-channel stereo

powered mixer with built-in signal processing in a
compact table top design. The mixer can also be
rack-mounted with the supplied rack ears. It’s ideal
for small club venues, lounge acts and other sound
reinforcement applications. A comprehensive
mixer section with extensive routing and metering
capability, the TM500’s stereo power amp produces
250 watts a side into 4 ohms and features a fan-
cooled, bipolar design for greater stability and long
life. A built in DSP section provides 16 different
effects including reverbs, delays, gates, flanging and
more with up to 16 variations for a total of 256. 3-
band EQ for the mono channels and 2-band EQ for
the stereo channels is complemented by a dual 7-
band graphic EQ for more sonic control. A truly
useful audio tool that offers users exceptional ver-
satility and performance in one package.
