![]() ![]() When designing the TB12 Tone Beast Black our goal was to make a microphone preamplifier affordable and jam packed full of options, without compromising the quality and design parameters that make this type of microphone preamplifier so desirable. The output control on the TB12 allows you to limit the signal exiting the preamp even when pushing the gain to really hot levels, giving you maximum control. The Tone Beast Black is customizable and allows users to source and swap in their own opamps. The 2 opamps and 2 output transformers at the flip of their switches won't appear to be much different, but as one drives the pre into harmonic distortion, the unique character of each of these components becomes apparent. The Tone Beast Black is a mic pre that likes to be pushed and when pushed will colorize your signal ever so sweetly. With top notch CineMag transformers and multiple discrete signal paths, it's hard to beat the Tone Beast's big, bold, fully-professional sound at this price. It is a swiss army knife full of options and tones. PS for the V16 Fusioneers, it is now possible to generate multiple, floating, positionable windows and populate them with the following.įlow, Console, Tools, Timeline, Modifiers, Spline, Help, Multi View, Time View, Transport View, Image View, Info and Chat.The TB12 Tone Beast Black is a fully professional preamp design with loads of gain that can effortlessly capture an array of sources very well. With a manual of almost 3K pages and a mountains of stuff to learn in each revision, is is too much to ask for stability in the UI especially if no extra functionality is added. Used to be 2 clicks, now it is 7Īnd a host of other things that did not need fixing. Two SxS memory card slots Power switch Headphone jack and Audio controls level. Only to restore what used to be.in 11 and 12Īnd delete unused 6 audio channels in Clip properties. 3.5-inch 16 × 9 color LCD screen currently displaying VU meters and. What I eventually did was sell my Sony BVM and purchase a FSI DM 240 with built in VU meters reading from the HD SDI feed. If I do 2 I have a meter about the same size as the microscopic one on the edit page now. If I do 1 the meters are still quite a way from the end of the timeline as I have a SDI monitor in between I expound it's virtues every chance I get so please give me back my meters. I have been a DR user since V11 and now have three DR/Fusion rooms. The MIXER meter, even at it's smallest, still takes up over 1/3 of the entire screen which can be better used for thumbnails. So the code exists to have these meters but I have never seen any reason why they were deleted.Īs for an on/off control perhaps clicking on the microscopic meters on the EDIT page just above the RHS of the timeline, could toggle the larger, readable meters. To add insult to injury, the CUT page now has its own VU meters much closer to the timeline.Īnd, for some mysterious reason, the DELIVER page too has meters, exactly where they should be. If you view the pic you will see that this is a long way away from where they need to be and are almost useless. My timeline is on the RH screen and the mixer VUs appear on the left side of the LH screen. The mixer meters really can't be used on a dual screen setup. Dropped in V14, the VU meters on the edit page are REALLY useful. I recommend that you use the free plugin VU Meter from TB Audio and lower the gain on each sample until its hitting zero on the meter. ![]()
