send 2 is post-eq and post-fader; that is, the level of the signal is determined by the channel’s Trim control, its EQ settings, and the position of its fader. Aux send 2 is used for routing signal to the TM300’s internal DSP For more information, see the “Using Aux Sends and Returns” and “Using the DSP” sections on pages 20 and 22 in this manual.

8:Pan - This knob allows you to place the input signal anywhere in the left-right stereo spectrum, while keeping the overall signal level constant. When the knob is placed at its center (detented) position, the signal is sent equally to both the left and right speaker outputs. When moved left of center, less signal is sent to the right output and more signal is sent to the left output (making the sound appear left of center) and when moved right of center, less signal is sent to the left output and more signal is sent to the right output (making the sound appear right of center). To route a signal hard left or right, place the pan knob either fully counterclockwise or fully clockwise. For more information, see the “Using Pan” section on page 19 in this manual.

9:PFL (“Pre Fader Listen”) switch - When pressed in, the channel is soloed in connected headphones (see #24 on page 8). Soloing is non-destructive; that is, it has no effect on the main stereo output.

10:Channel Fader - This linear slider determines the signal level being sent to the main output as well as affecting the signal level being routed to Aux send 2 (which is post-fader; Aux 1 is always pre-fader). In practice, you will use the channel faders to continuously adjust the levels of the various signals being blended together by the TM300. The “0” position of the fader indicates unity

gain (no level attenuation or boost). Moving the fader down from the “0” position (towards “∞ ”) causes the signal to be attenuated (at the very bottom, it is attenuated infinitely— in other words, there is no sound).

For best signal-to-noise ratio, all faders for channels carrying signal should generally be kept at or near their “0” position. Channels that are unused should have their faders kept all the way down at their “∞ ” (minimum) level. See the “Setting the Correct Gain Structure” section on page 14 in this manual for more information.

TM300 specifications

The Samson TM300 is a highly regarded professional microphone designed for studio and live performance applications. Renowned for its distinctive sound quality and durability, the TM300 caters to musicians, vocalists, and audio engineers alike.

At the core of the TM300's design is its dynamic microphone element, which excels in capturing the nuances of vocal performances. This type of microphone inherently rejects unwanted noise and feedback, making it an excellent choice for both live settings and studio recordings. The TM300's frequency response, typically spanning from 50Hz to 15kHz, showcases its ability to reproduce deep lows and crisp highs, ensuring that every vocal nuance is accurately captured.

One of the standout features of the TM300 is its cardioid polar pattern. This directional pickup pattern allows the microphone to focus on sound sources directly in front of it while minimizing background noise from the sides and rear. This characteristic is crucial in live settings, where minimizing ambient noise can greatly enhance the clarity of the performance.

The TM300 is built with high-quality materials, featuring a rugged metal housing that can withstand the rigors of frequent use. Its sturdy construction ensures longevity, even in demanding environments. Furthermore, the microphone includes a built-in pop filter that helps reduce plosive sounds (such as "p" and "b" consonants), providing cleaner audio capture without the need for additional accessories.

In terms of connectivity, the Samson TM300 typically utilizes a standard XLR output, making it compatible with a wide range of mixing consoles, audio interfaces, and recording devices. This versatility allows it to be seamlessly integrated into both professional and home studio setups.

For audio professionals seeking an affordable yet high-performance microphone, the Samson TM300 offers exceptional sound quality, rugged build, and user-friendly features. Whether used for live performances, studio recordings, or broadcast applications, the TM300 continues to impress with its reliable performance, making it a favorite choice among musicians and audio engineers alike. As the demand for quality audio equipment rises, the TM300 remains a testament to Samson's commitment to excellence in the audio industry.
