Audio professionals in search of a multifunctional parallel processing tool will be impressed with the TK Audio M/S Blender 500, a 500-Series universal parallel processing tool that can act as a dual-mono blender, a stereo blender, and an M/S encoder/decoder.
In standard mode, the unit acts like two individual mono blenders or engage the link function for the left knob to control both channels for easier blending of stereo signals. In M/S mode, the left/right sends will be encoded into mid/side sends and the returns will be decoded back to left/right before the blend controls. A cue function allows you to monitor the left, right, mid, or side signal. The cued signal will be sent to both main outputs. All inputs and outputs are electronically balanced and can handle signals up to +26 dBu.
