Electro-Voice announces global launch of Everse 12

The launch of Everse 8 in late 2022 saw Electro-Voice (EV) set a benchmark for battery-powered portable speakers by bringing pro-audio performance into play. Now EV introduces Everse 12, a larger and louder 12’’ two-way option, offering the same wireless-friendly features that made its 8’’ counterpart a success.

Everse 12 offers a maximum SPL rating of 126 dB (compared to the Everse 8’s 121 dB), a low-frequency response reaching down to 45 Hz, and 100° x 60° coverage. A custom-designed Li-ion battery pack provides power for 12+ hours at an average SPL of 100 dB with typical program material or 6+ hours at the maximum output level before limit indication, surpassing the Everse 8’s equivalent performance at 95 dB.

Protection circuitry reduces the risk of the battery discharging to such a low voltage that it can no longer be recharged - for example, after long periods in storage. Tool-free screws facilitate effortless removal of the battery pack. Everse 12 features a weatherized design, a high-output titanium-diaphragm compression driver, true wireless stereo streaming and app control/mixing.

The woofer and compression driver are coupled to a patented SST (Signal Synchronized Transducers) ported waveguide, enhancing low-frequency extension and delivering even vertical and horizontal coverage across all frequencies. The components are “Powered by Dynacord”, driven by a 400 W Class-D amplifier and DSP module developed in collaboration with the audio electronics engineering team at EV’s sibling brand Dynacord. Pro features include a built-in four-channel digital mixer with studio-quality effects and processing, mode/location/subwoofer presets, 48 V phantom power, feedback suppression and audio ducking.

Wireless control and monitoring are streamlined with the EV QuickSmart Mobile app, enabling users to adjust all audio, effects and mix functions via phone or tablet. The app allows pairing and grouping of up to six Bluetooth-equipped Electro-Voice portable loudspeakers, in any combination. Everse 12 supports Bluetooth true wireless stereo streaming for stereo setups.

Local configuration can be completed in seconds using the single-knob encoder with LCD. An integrated 12 V DC port draws power from the Everse 12 battery, making it suitable for wireless microphone systems such as the Electro-Voice RE3 or R300. A USB-C charging port for mobile devices is provided for a power top-up during streaming. Two XLR/TRS combo jacks, a 3.5 mm stereo jack and a TRS footswitch input add further connectivity.

Every detail of Everse 12 is crafted for easy lifting and transportation. An ergonomically designed soft-touch handle and advanced lightweight construction simplify moving and mounting the Everse 12, whether it’s onto a tripod for an extended throw, set long-side-down as a stage wedge with a 55° monitor angle, or placed upright with a 25° kick-back angle to project upwards off the performance area. Built-in feet with no-skid rubber pads also ensure the system stays put.

In combination with the rugged polypropylene enclosure, utilizing the included weatherized input cover allows Everse 12 to achieve an IP43 rating (water-resistant for splashes and light rain) when running on battery power during Bluetooth streaming. An optional rain cover is available for additional weather resistance. An optional duffel bag is also available.
