Precautions
!
!
If an Electro-Voice loudspeaker is used outdoors on a sunny day, place the loudspeaker in a shaded or covered area. The loudspeaker amplifiers have protection circuits that temporarily shut the loudspeaker off when extremely high temperatures are reached. This can happen on hot days when the loudspeaker is in direct sunlight.
Do not use Electro-Voice loudspeakers in an environment where temperatures are below 0°C (32°F) or exceed +35°C (95°F).
Never expose an Electro-Voice loudspeaker to rain, water, or high moisture.
!
1.4
!
Electro-Voice loudspeakers are easily capable of generating sound pressure levels sufficient to cause permanent hearing damage to anyone within normal coverage distance. Caution should be taken to avoid prolonged exposure to sound pressure levels exceeding 90 dB.

EVOLVE 50 Portable Column System
Description
Thank you for choosing an Electro-Voice portable column system. Please take time to consult the manual to understand all the features built into your EV system and fully utilize its performance capabilities.
The EVOLVE 50 portable column system is a new entry and form factor in the Electro-Voice portable sound portfolio. Designed to deliver an uncompromising combination of low-profile aesthetics and superior audio performance, the EVOLVE 50 sets a new standard for portable columnar systems.
EVOLVE 50 is designed to quickly and easily be transported and assembled. The three handle design on the subwoofer and convenient included carry case for the sub pole and column array provide minimal resistance to getting excellent, professional sound anywhere you need it. Installation is made easier via the symmetrical aluminum subwoofer pole with an integrated wire assembly. The connection is secured by the magnetic assisted latching system, which magnetically locks the sub pole in place.
The full-range column array and its eight 3.5-inch neodymium drivers are directed using custom-designed waveguides for consistent 120° coverage. The ported subwoofer enclosure houses a 12-inch woofer that is supported by 18 mm wood for enhanced stiffness and acoustical performance. The Class-D amplifier provides up to 1000 watts of output power: 500 watts to the subwoofer and 500 watts to the column array. The input panel features EV's industry-leading Quick Smart DSP interface—allowing intuitive navigation of system parameters via an LCD with single-knob control—as well as multiple options for signal routing and inputs.
The new Electro-Voice Quick Smart Mobile application utilizes Bluetooth® Low Energy (BTLE) technology for the wireless configuration, control, and monitoring of up to six EVOLVE 50 systems simultaneously. High-resolution Bluetooth® audio streaming adds convenience for wireless music playback in breakout rooms, intermission, and musical accompaniment.
Bluetooth® is available in select countries.
Electro-Voice quality and testing procedures far exceed the industry norm to yield efficient and effective electro-acoustic performance; this creates components that deliver an accurate, linear response at the system’s highest output levels. When applied to EVOLVE 50, this engineering philosophy results in a system that brings a new sonic benchmark to the column speaker segment, all packaged in a sleek and portable enclosure that blends into the background in any application from a lounge to a wedding reception.
System features
– EV Quick Smart Mobile application: quickly and wirelessly configure, control, and monitor up to six EVOLVE 50 systems simultaneously, and receive immediate notification during critical performance conditions. Bluetooth® connectivity is available in select countries.
– High-quality Bluetooth® audio streaming for background music or musical accompaniment. Bluetooth® connectivity is available in select countries.
– Ultra-wide 120° horizontal coverage via custom-designed waveguides and array-formed
40° asymmetrical vertical coverage means all acoustical energy is directed towards both sitting and standing audiences.

System protection
System protection limiters indicate when a system is exceeding recommended usage by indicating CLIP or LIMIT on the LCD display.
CLIP
CLIP indicates the signal to the loudspeaker is too high, resulting in a clipped signal into the loudspeaker. If CLIP is shown, reduce the input gain knob and/or the signal on the mixer or source equipment.
LIMIT
LIMIT protects the loudspeaker from short-term peaks which can cause distortion. When
LIMIT is shown small on the screen, the limiter is active but keeps distortion under control.
The large LIMIT indicates the sound is negatively affected. Reducing the output volume
(MASTER VOL) is strongly recommended when the large limit indication is shown.

8 Troubleshooting
EVOLVE 50 Portable Column System
Problem
1.
No sound
Possible cause
Amplifier
Wiring
2.
Intermittent output such as crackling or distortion
Faulty connection
3.
Constant noise such as buzzing hissing or humming
Defective source or other electronic device
Poor system grounding or ground loop
Action
Verify all the electronics are on, the signal routing is correct, the source is active; the volume is turned up, etc.
Correct/repair/replace as necessary. If there is still no sound, the problem may be wiring.
Verify you have connected the correct cables to the amplifier. Play something at a low level through the amplifier. Connect a test loudspeaker in parallel with the malfunctioning line. If the sound level is gone or is very weak, the line has a short in it (possibly a severe scrape, pinch, or a missed connection). Using the test loudspeaker, move down the line and test each connection/junction until you find the problem and correct it. Observe proper polarity.
Check all connections at amplifier and loudspeakers to ensure they are all clean and tight. If the problem persists, check the wiring.
See problem 1.
If noise is present, but no program material is playing, evaluate each component as necessary to isolate the problem. Most likely there is a break in the signal path.
Check and correct the system grounding, as required.
4.
No sound produced with microphone connected to
INPUT 1 or
INPUT 2
5.
Sound is distorted front
LED is OFF,
LCD screen
LIMIT is ON
Input gain knob is not in the MIC position
Slowly increase the input gain knob level to engage the microphone pre-amp.
Microphone requires phantom power.
Use a dynamic microphone that does not require phantom power (+15 V). If using a microphone requiring phantom power, enable
PHANTOM POWER is the DSP menu, or use an external phantom power source.
Input gain knob is not in the MIC position
Slowly increase the input gain knob level to engage the microphone pre-amp.
Excessive input level Reduce the input level or loudspeaker level knobs to prevent limit.

Installation manual Electro-Voice
EVOLVE 50 Portable Column System Troubleshooting | en 27
Problem Possible cause Action
Incorrect gain structure or source input (mixing console/ preamp) is overdriven
Verify level controls of the source are properly structured by using the VU meter indicator on the LCD screen. If the VU meter bar is solid or the system indicates LIMIT, the input or source level is too high.
6.
Microphone produces acoustic feedback when input level is amplified
Incorrect gain structure
Reduce the microphone levels at the mixing console or input source. If the microphone is connected directly to the speaker, reduce the input level on the speaker. Positioning the microphone close to the sound source increases gain-before-feedback. See problem 6.
7.
DSP menu is locked
MODE is set to MUSIC Change the MODE to LIVE or SPEECH.
Microphone position is too close to the front of the loudspeaker
The Menu Lock function has been turned on.
Whenever possible setup the loudspeakers so the microphone is behind them. If using the loudspeaker in a monitor position, aim the loudspeaker to the back of the microphone.
Press and hold the MASTER VOL knob for 5 seconds.
8.
Quick Smart
Mobile app does not detect the loudspeaker
Enable Bluetooth® Ensure Bluetooth® is enabled on the loudspeaker.
If these suggestions do not solve your problem, contact your nearest Electro-Voice dealer or
Electro-Voice distributor.
