QUICK START – IF YOU JUST CAN’T WAIT If you just can’t wait to hear the great effects waiting for you in your new M350 Dual Effects processor, follow the few steps in this quick setup guide: • Unpack the M350 and check for possible damages that could have been caused by transport. • Read the safety

INTRODUCTION Congratulations on the purchase of your M350 Dual Effects Processor from TC Electronic M350 is an extremely user-friendly dual engine rack processor which is equally suited for live and studio applications. It combines 15 quality reverbs with 15 multi-purpose effects including Delay,

FRONT PANEL OVERVIEW INPUT knob Adjusts the input level. 1/L and 2/R LEDS 3 color LEDs indicating input level on left and right inputs. Green: -40dB Yellow: -6dB Red: -1dB MIX knob Adjusts the mix between the wet and the dry signal. 100% “wet” is achieved at fully clockwise position. EFFECTS

FRONT PANEL OVERVIEW REVERB Type selector Selects between 15 different reverb types or sets the Reverb engine to “Off”. PRE DELAY knob Controls the relative pre delay of the selected Reverb. DECAY knob Controls the relative decay of the selected reverb. COLOR knob Controls the relative color of the

TYPICAL SETUPS Connecting and Setting up the M350 Setting up the M350 is very easy. It is, however, important to connect and setup the M350 correctly according to your application. Setting up basically means: connecting, selecting one of the two routing options via the switch on the rear panel and

TYPICAL SETUPS Setup Serial Setup This setup utilizes the M350 as a delayeffects processor connected in serial to a reverb. It is ideal when you wish to add reverb to a signal already processed by one of the delay-effects. The illustrated setup is a typical live instrument setup. • On the rear

TYPICAL SETUPS Setup “Parallel Setup” (analog input only) This setup utilizes the M350 as a dual processor on a mono signal with a common stereo output. Routing Schematic • On the rear panel, select Dual Input routing mode by leaving the ROUTING switch in the “in” position. • Connect AUX1 (or any)

TYPICAL SETUPS Setup Guitar Setups This setup utilizes the M350 as a delay-effects processor connected in serial to a reverb. It is ideal when you wish to add reverb to a signal already processed by one of the delay-effects. This is a typical guitar setup. • On the rear panel, select SERIAL routing

TYPICAL SETUPS Digital Setup — M350 as Insert This setup is ideal if you are using the M350 as a digital insert effect on your hard disk recording system. This setup requires that you are using an I/O card with S/PDIF In/Out. • Select Serial Routing by leaving the ROUTING switch on the rear panel

TYPICAL SETUPS Digital Setup — M350 as A to D converter The analog to digital converters in the M350 are superior to most converters used on soundcards in the affordable price range. You can therefore most likely benefit from using the M350 as an A to D converter when doing hard disk recordings.

OPERATING – INPUT/OUTPUT SECTION INPUT GAIN This knob controls the input level for both the analog and digital input options. For optimal performance of the M350, a well-adjusted input level is essential. LED Off Digital input is set to “off”. The M350 processes only the signal present on the

OPERATING – INPUT/OUTPUT SECTION MIX RATIO Sets the mix between dry and wet signal. The Mix parameter operates differently depending on the selected routing: In “Dual S/R” routing, “MIX” controls the overall wet/dry mix of both the Delay/Effects and the Reverb section. In “Serial” routing, “MIX”

THE DELAY-EFFECTS ENGINE Delay / Effects Engine Effect Selector With the EFFECT selector you select between one of the following effects and Off. • • • • • • • • Dynamic Delay Studio Delay Triplets Delay Soft Delay Ping Pong Delay SlapBack Delay Smooth Phaser Vintage Phaser • • • • • • • Tremolo

THE DELAY-EFFECTS ENGINE TIMING knob – De-Ess and Compression: For the De-Ess algorithm the TIMING knob controls the Amount parameter. For the Compressor algorithm the TIMING knob controls the Drive parameter. The higher you set the TIMING knob, the harder the Compressor is hit. Or you could say

THE REVERB ENGINE Reverb Engine Reverb Selector Select between the following Reverb types or “Off”. • • • • • • • • TC Classic Hall Cathedral Vocal Reverb Live Vocal Hall Acoustic Drum Ambience Drum Room Ambience • • • • • • • Living Room Nearfield Damped Room Silver Plate Gold Plate Spring Vintage

STORE – RECALL & THE DISPLAY Edited knobs LEDs Preset Modes Display The M350 holds two significantly different modes. To toggle between these modes, press the PRESET ON/OFF key. Edited knobs LEDs (relevant only in “Preset On” mode) These LEDs refer to the 10 front panel controls. See illustration

MISCELLANEOUS Factory Presets The M350 holds no conventional factory presets. When all the controllers are in 12 o’clock position, the M350 is “in neutral”, meaning that all parameters are set as suggested by TC Electronic. Combining the 16 positions of both the DELAY/EFFECTS and the REVERB

ROUTINGS It is essential that you have selected the correct routing according to your setup: Serial Routing With this routing, the two engines are used as a chain of two effects where the signal first passes the Delay/Effects engine and thereafter the Reverb engine. This is the routing to select

DELAY-EFFECTS This manual section explains the function of the front panel controls as well as the algorithm parameters in the Delay-effects section. Delay – Controls TIMING knob Both the TIMING and the TAP key are used to specify the desired tempo of the repeats. A tempo is tapped on the TAP key

DELAY-EFFECTS Studio Delay The Studio Delay algorithm will give you a clear reproduction of the material fed to the M350. To soften the Delay (as it is commonly done in studio productions), the Studio Delay uses a subtle yet significant HiCut at a relatively high crossover frequency. Triplets Delay

DELAY-EFFECTS Parameters associated with Compression Threshold As soon at the input signal is above the set threshold point, the output level of the compressor will be reduced according to the specified ratio. Ratio Specifies how aggressive the gain reduction of the signal should be. With a ratio

DELAY-EFFECTS Phaser Hard Tremolo/Soft Phaser – Controls Tremolo – Controls TIMING knob In the Phaser algorithm, the TIMING knob sets the speed of the Phaser. TIMING knob In the Tremolo algorithm, the TIMING knob sets the speed of the tremolo. FEEDBACK/DEPTH knob In the Phaser algorithm, the

REVERBS The M350 holds the following Reverb types: • • • • • • • TC Classic Hall Cathedral Vocal Reverb Live Vocal Hall Acoustic Drum Ambience Drum Room • • • • • • • • Ambience Living Room Nearfield Damped Room Silver Plate Gold Plate Spring Vintage Live Stage Each of these reverb types has been

REVERBS Drum – Ambience This reverb was especially designed to emulate the recording rooms typically used for drums. The Drum Ambience is a 80’s style ambient room with only very short reflections. The Drum Ambience emulates the reflections in a medium sized drum room with a high ceiling – giving
