Hundreds of sonic refinements — instantly
The ToneMatch audio engine puts Bose's largest library of customized presets at your command. These ToneMatch presets instantly optimize instruments at the touch of a button. Different presets can be independently assigned to each of the engine's four channels. For example, select exact mic presets for the microphones you're using on channels 1 and 2, your guitar model for channel 3, and your bass model for channel 4 — all at the same time. Bose's engineers often work with manufacturers directly to expand the ToneMatch preset library, and updates are available to you free with easy downloading via the built-in USB port.
Intelligent EQ and effects
Fine-tune your sound system with greater accuracy using Bose's intelligent zEQ system. It redefines low, mid, and high ranges for each ToneMatch preset. When you need to cut or boost specific frequency ranges for different instruments and mics, zEQ gives you the power. Globally assign one of five different reverbs to each mic/line channel. You can also choose from three delay types, 10 additional effects, and seven dynamics processors — and assign them independently to each channel. Additionally, the T8S's 6-band master EQ helps compensate for venue acoustics.
Magnetic mixer cover
For protection and peace of mind, the T8S ToneMatch Mixer includes a magnetic cover. This feature both preserves levels from gig to gig and protects your T8S from damage on the road or at the show.
