Meet the EVOLVE 50M: Professional Performance, Column Convenience

Description
The Electro-Voice EVOLVE 50M portable linear column array PA system redefines professional-grade performance in an ultralight, compact design. Powered by a 1,000W Class-D amplifier, this system delivers premium sound through eight 3.5" neodymium drivers and a 12" subwoofer. The array features 120° horizontal and 40° asymmetrical vertical coverage for consistent output across standing and seated audiences. With its integrated eight-channel digital mixer, advanced DSP and QuickSmart Link technology, the EVOLVE 50M is engineered for seamless operation and superior sound quality. Its sleek design and rugged construction make it a standout in both form and function.
Electro-Voice QuickSmart Link for Effortless Expansion
Electro-Voice's innovative QuickSmart Link technology lets you connect two EVOLVE 50M systems via an Ethernet cable for expanded functionality. This feature creates a full digital audio and control connection, which can be managed through the QuickSmart mobile app. The app provides unified control over both systems, allowing you to adjust mix settings and effects from a single device. This streamlined setup is perfect for larger gigs or multi-performer shows, reducing the need for bulky external gear while ensuring precise, synchronized control.
Integrated Mixer With Studio-Grade Effects
The onboard eight-channel mixer, developed with Dynacord, brings professional-grade preamps and full configurability. It offers four XLR/TRS combo inputs, RCA and 3.5 mm stereo jacks, a Hi-Z input for instruments and Bluetooth streaming. Two channels of effects include 30 presets like chorus, delay and reverb, giving musicians the tools to craft their tone without external processors. AUX sends and a footswitch input add even more flexibility for live performances. This integrated mixer eliminates the need for separate gear, simplifying setup and teardown while delivering exceptional sound quality.
Advanced Electro-Voice DSP for Precision Control
The EVOLVE 50M features Electro-Voice's QuickSmart DSP, accessible via a user-friendly LCD and single-knob control or the QuickSmart mobile app. The DSP provides precise tuning options for audio, effects and mix functions. Its intelligent design ensures optimized sound with minimal effort, making it easy to adapt to different performance environments. High-resolution, low-latency Bluetooth streaming ensures pristine playback quality, making this column PA a versatile solution for live music, DJs and AV professionals.
A Durable Column PA System Built for Reliable Performance
Constructed for long-term reliability, the EVOLVE 50M combines a durable composite array enclosure with a 15 mm wood subwoofer cabinet featuring a laminar-flow vent for superior acoustics. The aluminum pole offers internal wiring and magnetic latching for quick assembly, while the powder-coated steel grille provides added protection.
