All your most loved and used effects are at your fingertips with the TC Electronic M350, a dual-engine rack processor packed with stereo reverbs, cool effects, and the user-friendly build and style for which TC Electronic is known. This straight-forward processor boasts a line of knobs for hands-on tweaking of effects like delay, modulation, and compression, as well as an included software editor for fine-tuning outside the box. Its AU/VST-compatible software editor bridges the gap between the effects processor and your computer, allowing you to work with M350 effects, parameters, and presets within your favorite DAW. And with high-quality 24-bit processing and AD/DA conversion, TC Electronic's M350 will see to it that your effects sound sharp in the studio and out.

Instant FX for Any Application

Whether you're using the M350 during a live show or as part of your Friday night noodle-fest in your home studio, you will like its selection of effects, factory presets, and its simple, plug-and-play design.

The M350 provides 15 TC Electronic reverbs such as classic TC hall, cathedral, ambience, room, plates, and springs to suit your tone; and 15 multipurpose effects, including a range of delays, compressors, phasers, and choruses. You can tap in to the processor's 256 multi-effect/reverb presets for instant ambience, or you can create and save up to 99 of your own presets, for a total of 355 presets.

Front-Panel Parameter Control

All of the M350's reverb and effect types read more and parameters are accessible from the front panel, which also sports an easy-to-read preset display that's highly visible in any kind of lighting. Another nice design feature is its internal power supply, which eliminates the need for a bulky wallwart.

Ready for Recording

With the help of the included software editor, you can control and edit the M350's parameters from either the unit itself or in your choice of DAW software or AU/VST environment.

"FINALLY, A RACK MOUNT DELAY THAT DOES WHAT I WANTED IT TO DO"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
This product is at the end of the search........in this case the light at the end of the tunnel is not a train.
Sound
Just purchased this unit and am very impressed. Have several rack mount fx units that I've purchased over the years and none of them measure up to this for sound quality. All I really wanted in an effects unit is a good sounding slapback delay for vocals. I have a rack mounted yamaha mixer with built in fx processor and that's the only sore spot the yamaha has -- the fx. They sound dull and dumpy. The t c electronics unit fixed that problem. And has actual rotating knobs to change the parameters. GREAT.
Features
No wall wart, easy store process, the sound I have been searching for, works with vocals or with guitar. It's all I need/
Ease of Use
GREAT, no other comment comes to mind.
Quality
From what I/ve heard from other musicians, no problems. From the way it will be mounted in the rack, and what I'll use it for, it should hold up very well.
Value
Worth it's price and more as far as I am concerned. It does what I bought it for better than anything so far.
Manufacturer Support
unknown at this time
The Wow Factor
Give me a break, it's a piece of gear not tail. Practical if it's what you're looking for to do a particular job.
