TC Electronic M2000 Effect Processor, from TC

Although we don't typically mess around with the low-budget effects, this is one little unit where we decided to make an exception. The M2000 is loaded with multi-effects, that really are nice, despite the deceivingly low price-tag. If you are looking for their extremely detailed and transparent effects, the M3000, or even more so, the M4000 do it better. But at this price point, the M2000 is one hell of a deal.

The Engineering Group at TC Electronic were given carte blanche to create the optimal studio signal processor. Being musicians and studio engineers themselves, they know what is important and have a feel for what you are looking for. Working on the borderline between art and science, they created the M2000.

Designed for the artist within you, you will create magic when using the M2000.

The M2000 provides you with a broad palette of high quality effects enabling you to create magical effects. The true dual engine configuration allows you to run two full-blown effects simultaneously, i.e. on two individual effects sends. The effects have been developed for optimal sonic quality with no compromises made. This has only been possible because our engineers succeeded in combining the latest technology with TC's powerful DARC? chip.

Ultimate User-Interface

The user-friendly TC feature, the Recall Wizard, instantly finds the preset that suits your need in any situation. You simply enter your preferences, such as gentle reverb for vocal, or extra pitch for guitar and the Wizard serves you a short list of presets ready to compare and use.

Uncompromising Effects

The M2000 gives you access to a stunning array of Reverb, Pitch-shifting, Delays, Chorus, Dynamics etc. Among the included reverbs you'll find the unique Co-efficient Optimised Room Emulator or C.O.R.E. Reverb based upon TC?s famous reverberation Technology.

Another unique feature in the M2000 is the Dynamic Morphing. This function enables you to apply e.g. Chorus to a vocal at low volume levels, while the same effect is being morphed into flanging at high levels giving the signal a totally new dynamic dimension.

The Sensation

The M2000 is fully prepared for the digital age with Digital I/O connectors, S/PDIF and the professional format AES/EBU. However, specifications never tell the whole story. What really matters is how your final mix sounds. This is where TC?s long experience and know-how in high-end studio signal processing becomes important.
