New Dimensions in Expression

“I've been using the System 6000 as a four engine device connected to my console atBackStage studio in Nashville. Configuring the unit for each application could not beeasier allowing me to use it for stereo as well as 5.1 mixes. I must say, at this point, I do not think I could get along without it!”

Chuck Ainlay, Nashville Tennessee

Since the release of the System 6000 in early 2000, demonstrating our latest technology has been the mostgratifying experience for any member of the TC Electronic team worldwide. After spending so much time withpotential and existing clients, it felt right to share with you their comments and observations:

The Art of sound engineering hasfor many years been a question ofenhancing the expression of thesource material, whether it is thesoundtrack from a motion picture,a live broadcast or a musicalproduction. In doing so, the engi-neer is restricted by the limita-tions of his tools, turning thetools available into his artisticbarriers. With the System 6000you are now able to put the brushback into your hand. If you aredealing with Mono, Stereo, Surroundand 5.1 multi-channel setups, theSystem 6000 handles any formatin your chosen quality.

By using room simulation as aninstrument you can color yoursource material with emotions,making the expression grandioseand complex or intimate and simple.TC Electronic’s multi-channelplatform has been developed withfocus on creative freedom, thusmaking the engineer able to carryout the full spectrum of his artis-tic vision.

Film and Post ProductionTC's multi-award winning VirtualSpace Simulation (VSS™) technologybroke new ground and led the wayto VSS™5.1, a reverb algorithmconceived especially for multi-channelapplications. From rooms with realisticcharacter to purely glossy spaces,the System 6000’s touch screeninterface, extensive signal routingsystem and flexible set of digitaland analog I/Os make it indispensableto the Film and Post-productionengineer. With TC’s 5.1 roomsimulation, you get the best of bothtypes of reverb implementations.Place sources with precise accuracyor move them in real time using anon-screen or hardware joystick.

Recording StudioBeing able to run four VSS™3 orany other constellation of effectsalgorithms simultaneously makesthe System 6000 the perfectsolution for any sound productionfacility. With Sample Rates up to96kHz, hook it up to your localLAN network, and control it fromseveral TC Icon Remotes.

Mastering The MD5.1 (Multi-band Dynamicspackage) and Toolbox5.1 combinedwith high jitter rejection makesthe System 6000 stand out as themost powerful multi-channelprocessor ever, especially whendealing with level monitoring,down mixing and bass-managementfor mastering and DVD production.

Covering All FormatsMaintaining signal quality whenchanging between formats is anunderstandable concern in pro-audio.For instance, collapsing a signalfrom stereo to mono should notdramatically alter balances in a mix.Many Stereo reverbs show this limitation.Just change to mono and much ofthe wetness disappears! In 5.1, the effect is even more pro-nounced. A simulation soundingwide and pleasant over five speakersmay almost disappear in stereo ormono, if a completely uncorrelatedreverb design is not used. All roomsimulators and reverbs in System6000 are completely based on DSPintensive uncorrelated design.At TC Electronic, we are as consciousas ever to maintain sound integritythroughout formats and applications.

"The flexibility on the System 6000is an absolute dream. The mix for“Chicken Run” was very complex.There was so much going on that wewere having to place the FX on differ-ent stems but still apply the samereverbs. Because of the 6000’s rout-ing, we were able to load the samereverb into different engines and thensimply bring up the separate returnson the desk. It meant that we coulddo the reverbs in just one take,which saved us a lot of time."

Howard Bargroff for Chicken Run

“For "The Hollow Man", "Elvis PresleyThat's The Way It Is", "Soarin", "JerryGoldsmith Concert Music Album" Iused the System 6000 for reverb.The clarity and musicality of the devicerivals acoustic echo chambers. Neverclouding the image with conflictingharmonics.In one word....Elegant!”

Bruce Botnick

"TC Electronic’s System 6000 is avery forward thinking design. Its multi-tasking abilities have becomean integral part of my surround mixingtoolbox.”

Jake Niceley, Seventeen Grand Recording, Nashville

Riding on the success of the latesttwo Robbie Williams albums, producerSteve Power recently re-mixed thelive Slane Castle concert for DVD 5.1using TC Electronic’s System 6000 atLondon’s Metropolis Studios. "I choose the System 6000 becauseit is the only thing that does 5.1compression and reverb. The abilityto work at 96k was also an addedadvantage. I used System 6000’s 5.1Concert Hall reverb to give the listen-er the feeling that they were actual-ly in the middle of the crowd at theconcert.I used the flexible routing system torun the 5.1 reverb via the analogI/Os back into the aux. returns of theconsole while the dynamics processorwas routed simultaneously via theSystem 6000’s AES/EBU I/Os.”

Steve Power for Robbie Williams

"Not since I stood in the live chambersat Capitol Records have I heard suchnatural reverb! The System 6000,5.1, 96k chambers are wonderful andhave made mixing great albums in5.1 even more enjoyable!"

Ken Caillat, 5.1 Entertainment

“On the last three films I’ve workedon, I have used the System 6000primarily for reverbs on orchestraand solo instruments. I have foundthat with the control available forsource placement, early reflectionsand reverb parameters, the flexibilityand natural sense of space makethe 6000 an extremely powerfultool. I have also found the 5.1 EQ,compression/limiting, and matrixingsoftware to be sonically and practicallya great solution for the final touch onmultichannel material. With thefantastic array of processing optionsavailable on the System 6000, thebiggest problem you will have isdeciding which functions to pass onuntil you buy your second unit.”

Stephen A. Kempster

"The System 6000 is stuffed withleading-edge technology, as the gen-uine room simulation and the fabu-lous mastering features. Combinedwith the fact, that the System is Win-dows NT-based, which makes net-working a breeze, the S6000 platform isundoubtedly the best choice for acomplex as ours"

Jan Schubert from MMC,Magic Media Company, Germany.

Currently, most processors andDAW's for multi-channel formats relyon phantom imaging because DSPrequirements can be kept within anormal "stereo budget". However,phantom image processing and similarold techniques do not take fulladvantage of a multi-channelinstallation.

In System 6000 the amount of DSP,RAM and data infrastructure is designedto cope with the high demands ofmulti-channel and high sample rateapplications.

5.1 Room Simulation should takeunquestionable advantage of suchnew capabilities:- source localization may be enhancedif panning is based not only on leveldifferences but also involves roomrendering utilizing multi-directionalreflections. As an added benefit, thelistening sweet spot can be widened,thereby giving 5.1 more advantagesover traditional 2 channel reproduction.- compared to the pristine room mod-elling taking place in System 6000,microphone arrays in real rooms can-not achieve as much room feelingand localization as VSS™5.1.

Aiming higher, we have to seekmixing, recording and processingtechniques to unfold the true powerof 5+1 discrete speakers.

We believe System 6000 will be yourmain step in that direction.

Multi-channel Room Simulation Multi-channel Reverb

The VSS™SR (Surround) algorithm is aunique room simulator with new facilitiesfor surround production. The diffusedfield of the simulation is turned into anLt / Rt signal with separate Decay, Leveland Pre-delay parameters for front andrear. The output of the simulator iscompatible with mono, stereo andmatrixed surround reproduction.When used for surround production asurround encoder is not needed, butmonitoring should be done through aDolby ProLogic™ compatible decodingsystem.

The "VSS™5.1 Source" is a true 5.1 RoomSimulator. Multi-directional Early Reflectionpatterns and five uncorrelated Reverbsare integrated in this algorithm. There areseveral ways of incorporating the Centerchannel including TC’s phantom simula-tion.

VSS™5.1 Source or Room Simulation VSS™SR (4:2:4 Surround) Four discrete Input sources, each withtheir own precisely defined Reflectionproperties can be individually positionedin the sound field using the touch screenof the Icon.Imaging and room properties typicallysound more natural than if a certain eventis subjected to the compromises of dis-tant miking, imperfect rooms, arrays ofmicrophones and finally the end listeners’speaker configuration.The Early Reflection patterns maximizelocalization and widen the sweet spot.Consistent location, even outside thespeaker arrays, can be obtained.Perfect fold-down to matrixed surround,stereo and mono is ensured thanks tothe fully uncorrelated rendering usedin VSS™5.1 Source.

“TC Electronic is definitely not resting on the laurels of past success,but has continued to push the envelope on software and hardware.The System 6000 greets the 21st century with a platform designed tomeet the new multi-channel high-resolution delivery formats.”

Frank Wells, Audio Media, November 1999

System 6000’s 6.5 inch (165mm) colortouch-screen display brings the internalworkings of TC’s flagship into focus. You’llnever find yourself lost in hidden sub-menus,everything in the system is literally at yourfingertips.

Eight source surround panner to 5 channeloutput. Panning is achieved using level ordelay or a combination of both. The 8x5individual delays make SpacePan5.1 apowerful tool for the Film and Postproduction engineer.You can also use your console’s automatedsurround panner or TC’s cascadableexternal SP-1 Joystick.

If you need to add reverb to an existing 5.1signal or move sources around with a joy-stick, VSS™5.1 Reverb is your algorithm. Itfeatures multi-directional reflection pat-terns and five uncorrelated reverbs.Positioning can be done from yourconsole, our external joystick and fromthe TC Icon touch screen.As a request from mastering engineers,the LFE signal is passed throughunprocessed but time-aligned with the5 main channels. Several ways ofincorporating the Center channels areoffered including TC’s phantom simula-tion. Perfect fold-down to matrixed sur-round, stereo and mono is ensuredthanks to the fully decorrelated renderingused in VSS™5.1 Reverb. You can evenspecify different decay times per channel.

VSS™5.1 Reverb


EQ5.1 Six mono channels of four band fullyparametric EQ and 48 bit processing ofsignal-path.This is a general-purpose algorithm whichcan be used in conjunction with otheralgorithms or used stand alone. Channelscan be linked or used separately. Analogsounding, high precision filter modelsare used, and Softclip can be selectedon each output.

Toolbox 5.1The Toolbox5.1 is designed to supportsurround production. The algorithmoffers different Level, Test and Bassmanagement as well as Down Mixoptions.Toolbox5.1 is offered as an integratedpart of the MD5.1 and VP8 License pack-ages.

Multi-channel Processing Tools Technology@your Fingertips

VP8 - Eight Channel Vari-PitchAs a result of intelligent splicing, thealgorithm may be used for demandingapplications like real-time pitch changeof entire 5.1/7.1 stems when convertingframe rates between video and film (25to 24 fps. and vice versa).Channels may be locked in various waysto preserve phase relationship whileapplying pitch change. This feature is inhigh demand - and currently not availablein 5.1 - for telecine, film and postprocessing. The up and down pitch rangeis +/- 200 cents.

The System 6000 contains the most comprehensive & sophisticated set of tools available today and could beconsidered as complex. Without an intuitive user interface you could get confused! Don’t worry, the System6000’s Library puts seemingly limitless routing and preset parameter combinations into organized memorybanks.

New tools are now required for multi-channel applications. TC Electronicprovides you with powerful and innovative tools to eradicate existingtechnological challenges. Research and Development combined witha brilliant user interface make the System 6000 a solid long-terminvestment for the future.

Scene MemoryThe Mother of all presets.Sitting on top of all the memory banks,every parameter in all four Engine presets,plus the Routing of all four Engines arestored in one Master preset. The mostoften used Scenes are pre-loaded andclearly labeled for quick access. Onememory Recall and choose from 50 Fac-tory ROM and 50 User RAM memoryScenes. Engine and Routing parametersare loaded in less than 1 second!

Engine MemoryMore than 500 Factory presets logicallyarranged for Reverb, Mastering, Pitch &Delay with dedicated Stereo, 5.1, Musicand Film/Post presets in currently 8banks of up to 100 presets each.Additional room for 100 User presets isalso provided.

SMPTE control functions includeautomated program changes withboth Scene and Engine recalls. Cue-listscan be created automatically by"recording" preset changes togetherwith incoming SMPTE time-code. Thecue-list can be edited manuallyafterwards, cue by cue. The cue-listoperation is handled using the TC Icon.Several Mainframes can be automatedfrom the same cue-list, thanks to Sys-tem 6000’s networking abilities.

Routing MemoryCurrently 14 independent digital andanalog physical inputs, 14 independentphysical digital and analog outputs. Thereare millions of possible combinations aseach of the four engines has 8 inputsand 8 outputs. With the System 6000’srouting memory anything you canconceive can be stored in one of the100 Routing User memories or is alreadyfeatured in one of the Routing factory mem-ories. Routing memory is independent ofthe Engine memory, so you can set up arouting and try different combinations ofEngine presets to achieve the desiredresults.

Archive Mode – Why not save all of theSystem 6000 memories to a standard1.44MB PC formatted floppy and store itwith the track sheets.

Fader Settings – Factory and Userdefinable 6 faders parameters settingsfor direct access and interface flexibility.

Naming – Use the TC Icon keyboard oryour own computer keyboard and Mouse.

“One of the key features of the System 6000's reverb design is thatseveral sound sources can be placed at different positions, and whilenatural reverb tends to dilute the ear's ability to resolve location, theTC system actually seems to enhance it. This is particularly effectivewhen mixing for surround.”

Paul White, Sound On Sound (UK), June 2000

MD5.1The MD5.1 algorithm is a multi-channelmulti-band Expander/Compressor, withLimiters and extensive possibilities toassign channels to multiple side-chains.Based on the M5000 MD2 heritage,four-band dynamics are here availablefor 5.1-productions. With MD5.1, dynamicsprocessing is integrated seamlessly intothe 5.1 environment. Some features willnot be available when using multiplestereo dynamic processors. Togetherwith the EQ5.1 and Toolbox5.1, MD5.1 isan innovative package of masteringtools for multi-channel productions.

“With the introduction of their new flagship product the System6000, TC Electronic has taken the futuristic technology and art ofmulti-channel signal processing and delivered it into the market hereand now! The System 6000 comes across as a clear winner!Anyone interested in taking a rock solid step into the future ofprofessional audio should take a serious look at the System 6000.”

VSS™3The VSS™3 algorithm was designedfor a variety of applications rangingfrom music, post to film production.The objective is a "true-to-life"sound enabling the user to mimicenvironments. To establish convincingroom-types the Early Reflectionsmust be carefully reproduced. Arethe surfaces hard or soft, is theroom furnished or unfurnished, is ita small or big car?The configuration is Mono In / StereoOut. The uncorellated design ensuresperfect mono compatibility on theoutputs.

Delay-1The DELAY-1 algorithm is basicallyan easy to handle true stereo digitalDelay.

Delay-2The DELAY-2 algorithm is an advancedbut easy to handle true stereo digitalDelay line. With Cross feedback sec-tion and modulation section. ThisDelay is capable of doing anythingfrom smooth spatial expanding tothe wildest echo effects.

Reverb-3From the M5000 the Reverb-3 providesthe user with a true Stereo Reverb.It is capable of making an exceptionallyclear Reverb sound using a verydense and natural sounding ReverbTail. Decay time can be controlled in

four individually adjustable frequencybands. Using Diffuse and Distancecontrols, sounds can be made inwhich practically no Early Reflectionsare heard. Add a slight modulation tothis to minimize room interactionwith your source material and youhave Reverb-3.

CORE-2The TC Electronic true stereoREVCORE algorithms are particularlygood for small room simulations. Dueto the high density structure the rel-atively short Tails occurring in smallrooms can be convincingly repro-duced. As the VSS™ algorithms areparticularly suited for Film and Postproduction the Rev Core algo-rithm, known from the TC M5000, isalso highly usable.

REV-2The Reverb 2 algorithm initially creat-ed for the M5000 compliments mosttypes of source material. Experiencehas shown that the Reverb 2algorithm is especially good on per-cussive instruments, as it has a verywell-defined precise buildup.Its configuration is Stereo In / StereoOut. The uncorrelated designensures perfect mono compatibility.

PHASER-1This algorithm is the classic M5000stereo Phaser-1.

Chorus-1This algorithm produces a high qualityStereo Chorus and Flanging effect.Furthermore the Chorus-1 algorithmprovides the user with the ability tomake chorusing type Delay effects.

VP2The algorithm may be used for highquality pitch change for monophonicas well as polyphonic material. Becauseof intelligent splicing, it may be usedfor demanding applications like real-timepitch change of entire master trackswhen converting frame rates betweenvideo and film. Channels may belocked to preserve phase relationshipwhile applying pitch change.For music applications, VP2 Stereo isthe best and most unobtrusive pitchcontrol device in the industry today.

The up and down pitch range is +/-one octave. Feedback, cross-feedbackand filters are available for effectpurposes.

MD3Dual Mono and Stereo dynamicsprocessing in three frequency bands.Signal-path uses 48 bit processing.

Make-up gain can be appliedautomatically or manually, so thealgorithm can be set-up to doeverything from strictly limiting tolevel maximization. By offering a trueside-chain split structure, MD3 isalso capable of demanding monomaterial compression/limiting ontwo separate channels, not found inother multi-band dynamics processors.

From an M5000 users point of view, MD2and Toolbox algorithms are broughttogether in this new algorithm, theresolution is increased, sampling ratesgo to 96k, and new features are added.As in its predecessors, look-ahead delaymay be used for improved peak handlingand low distortion operation.

Used for mastering, MD3 can be regard-ed as a high-end mastering tool. M andS components of a stereo signal can beprocessed separately and provide evenmore control making full use of the Spec-tral Stereo Enhancer.

“I have been constantly amazed at what the System 6000 has done,from the obvious asset of high sound quality and realistic surroundreverb, to ergonomic design of both the software and the hardware.Most importantly though, I think that the System 6000 is what wehave all been waiting for!”

Paul Mac, Audio Media (UK), July 2000

“Everything that has put TC Electronic where it is today is presentin the System 6000; the quality and persuasiveness of its reverbalgorithms have transferred spectacularly into the surround domain,and the thoroughness and power of its acclaimed masteringdynamics have been thoughtfully transposed into the realms ofmulti channel processing. The Only frustration is knowing that there'sso much more to come and not being able to play with it yet.”
