Original owner, single "#1" unit, low usage in only my private project studio.
Only marks are security etchings in case of theft
Original manual included
Original purchase price was $1,360.00 (have orig receipt)
Free shipping to continental USA if my asking price is accepted!
Below is a technical description of the unit
Pdf manual available upon request
"The Drawmer M500 is a digital, multi-effects dynamic processor that's designed for use in the studio. It's a somewhat older piece of gear that falls somewhere in between the digital and analog ages. The connections that it has include XLR jacks for stereo inputs and outputs, as well as separate 1/4" inputs and sidechain inputs.
It also has MIDI connections for input, output, and thru.
You can get pretty in depth with it if you so choose, as you've got the option of running seven processors at once. It has a series of buttons for pulling up a variety of parameters on the screen, as well as saving your own presets and using the built in ones
The types of dynamic processing found on the M500 includes traditional compressor,
limiting, de-essing, a gate, and an expander. As you can see, it's got the full range of
dynamic processing, all with their own parameters and presets
M500 - Dynamics Processor Features:
The Drawmer M500 provides everything you could ask from the most powerful digitally controlled dynamics in the world and more. Its ability to combine up to seven 'effects' simultaneously is unsurpassed.
A different combination of effects and parameters can be assigned for each of its two channels. Utilising two high specification VCAs to provide a minimum signal path, the Drawmer M500 eliminates the disadvantages of limited bandwidth, noise build up, and time delay associated with multiple signal processing.
Ease of Operation.
To ensure that the engineer can exploit the full potential of the Drawmer M500 in the minimum of set up time Drawmer have included special features to allow 'user friendly' operation.
128 memory patches to provide instant access to 'everday' processing tasks.
All parameters of operation can be adjusted by a single rotary encoder.
'Colour coded' keypad for function selection.
Backlit 'supertwist' LCD for easy readability.
Functions (Effects).
FREQUENCY SELECTIVE NOISE GATE- Offers a powerful array of parameters including peak attack, trigger, pre-delay, re-trigger mask and 'Dynamic Envelope Transfer' for fully creative signal shaping.
DE-ESSER- Full band, single band, two band and two band complex.
COMPRESSOR-Switchable Hard/Soft knee compression, selectable Auto threshold, Auto attack/release and Auto gain make up.
EXPANDER-Threshold, ratio, hold, release, and range.
LIMITER-Threshold, attack, hold and auto/manual release.
AUTO PAN-Adjustable parameters and 8 pre-set pan waves triggerable from any source including MIDI.
AUTO-FADER- Fade up time, fade down time, range and trigger source (up to 99 seconds fade time). Keypad or MIDI triggerable.
Memory Patches.
78 factory pre-set memory patches.
50 user memory patches allow the engineer to edit, title and store a library of specialised programmes.
User modifications to a factory pre-set can be compared to the original pre-set using the EDIT/RECALL key.
Additional Features.
Within the noise gate function 16 envelope memories are available for 'DYNAMIC ENVELOPE TRANSFER'. The dynamic envelope (amplitude) of any sound can be simply recorded and imposed onto any audio signal passing through the gate.
Comprehensive 'REAL TIME' MIDI control.
High and low pass side chain filters.
Intelligence to prevent 'parameter abuse'.
All threshold parameters can be displayed simultaneously.
Stereo linking.
Balanced XLR connections.
