Effects units and signal processors are indispensable tools for professional audio processing and for optimising your audio projects: Whether you want to enhance the dynamics of your recordings, fine-tune frequencies during mastering, or achieve the ideal live sound, Thomann has the perfect range of high-quality equipment, from compressors and equalisers to specialised voice processors. So no matter whether you're a beginner starting out in home recording or a professional operating a massive studio, our signal processers will give you everything you need to add the finishing touches and attain a truly professional sound.
From analogue tape echo and professional surround processors to digital reverb units with over 1,600 algorithms, our extensive range includes professional multi-effects to help you create your unique trademark sound. And if you want to harness the characteristics of human hearing for special sound enhancements, our psychoacoustic effects will also deliver stunning results – from subtle improvements to impressive listening experiences with added depth and clarity.
When it comes to balancing volume differences in your recordings, adding punch to your sound, and preventing clipping due to sudden level jumps, our huge selection of compressors, limiters, and gates is sure to include the perfect tools - and with a de-esser, you can easily eliminate harsh sibilance.
A high-quality equaliser is the key to precisely and effectively shaping your sound, both live and in the studio, and as such Thomann has a wide range of both graphic and parametric equalisers for professional frequency adjustment – from affordable nine-band graphic EQs through to the legendary parametric EQ from Abbey Road Studios. A parametric equaliser eliminates unwanted frequencies by precisely adjusting the frequency, bandwidth (Q), and level; or specific parts of the frequency spectrum can be boosted, which is ideal for finely-graded sound corrections. Graphic equalisers, on the other hand, feature fixed frequency bands and intuitive faders that enable both fast adjustments and effective feedback suppression at the turn of a dial – perfect for the stage and for PA applications.
Vocalists and voice processors are perfect for creating impressive vocal performances. Vocalists are versatile tools that include effects like harmonisers, reverb, and doubling – they can be used to enhance the singer's voice, add extra harmonies, or correct the pitch, which makes these units ideal for live performances and studio recordings. Voice processors, on the other hand, use equalisers, compressors, auto-tune, and a range of other sound-shaping tools to allow you to get the best out of every voice by optimising the sound, dynamics, and intonation to achieve a professional result every time. At the end of the day though, it doesn't matter whether you are a solo artist or part of a band: Thomann has got what you need, with its huge range of effects units and signal processors for vocals ensuring that every voice can be optimally enhanced both live and in the studio.
When it comes to live sound reinforcement systems and fixed PA installations, two things that are absolutely essential are optimal sound and reliable performance – and Thomann's range of speaker management systems, delay lines, and feedback controllers includes everything you need to master every professional PA application. A speaker management system is the command centre for any PA setup, and it handles the signal distribution while also optimally (and largely automatically) adjusting the speakers' sound to the specific application and the acoustics of the room using EQ controls, crossovers, limiters, and other audio tools. When it comes to larger events or rooms of greater depth, delay lines are an indispensable aid: They add a calculated delay to signals feeding more distant speakers so that the audio from those speakers arrives in sync with the sound waves from the stage, thus ensuring a clear sound and optimum intelligibility even right at the back of the auditorium. Another must-have for the stage are feedback controllers, which automatically detect and eliminate acoustic feedback to ensure that even high-volume performances can go off without a hitch.
The modular 500 series packs a flexible and high-quality signal processing solution into the compact 500 series rack format, allowing you to combine equalisers, compressors, limiters, filters, preamps, and all manner of other modules to create an individual studio setup that precisely matches your needs and can be adapted and expanded as required – whether you're recording, mixing, or mastering, you can configure your toolkit for whatever you need. Thomann's extensive range of 500 series modules comprises all of the major brands, so you're sure to find the set of signal processors and accessories that's right for you.
