You are the proud owner of an exceptional performance instrument. Experienced turntablists will find the TTM 56 comfortable and familiar. The TTM 56 has many unique features which are mastered quicker if you read the manual. Right! We know you can't resist jumping right in, but please read at least this portion of the manual. It will help you get a good start. About the faders: The program faders and crossfader are magnetic, non-contact faders. This means No travel noise - No bleed - Ever! The electrical performance of the faders is unaffected by use. Old habits are hard to break, but you really don't have to mess with these faders. The magnetic faders in this mixer are very different from what you are used to. Be sure and read the Q and A section on page Manual-8. Special Features: • Program fader MODE switches allow selecting two sets of curves: MODE 1 gives the familiar stereo fader response. MODE 2 gives a left/right pan effect. • Both curves allow continuous adjustment of CONTOUR, giving smooth blend or fast cut. • The CHANNEL REVERSE switch allows the left-hand or right-hand fader to control PGM 1 or PGM 2. 4 6 2 8 0 10 AUX IN L PAN R TTM 56 PERFORMANCE MIXER DRY WET CHANNEL REVERSE L PAN R MASTER / CUE PGM 1 CUE PGM 2 REVERSE MODE 1 MODE 2 FAST CONTOUR SLOW TRANSFORM TRANSFORM MONO PGM1 / PGM2 STEREO HOUSE +10 +7 +4 +2 0 -2 -4 -7 -10 -20 REVERSE MODE 1 MODE 2 FAST CONTOUR SLOW REVERSE MODE 1 MODE 2 A B • The CROSSFADER MODE switch allows selecting two sets of curves: MODE 1 gives the familiar PGM 1 to PGM 2 cross-fade response. MODE 2 gives a center cut response (PGM 1 and PGM 2 are off in the center). • Independent CONTOUR controls for each side of the crossfader allow cut on one side and blending on the other (or any combination). • Auxiliary Inputs and Outputs, with independent level controls, give session mixing ability. AUX Inputs may be used for a drum machine, tape, etc. AUX Input is after the crossfader and after the effects loop. AUX Outputs may be used for recording, booth monitoring, or a second zone. AUX Output is the same as the Master Mix. • FlexFX™ allow assignment of PGM 1, PGM 2 or both to the effects loop. The effects loop is post-fader. You get great results when using the program faders or crossfader with reverb or other delay effects. WET/DRY pan lets you control how much effect is in the mix. • Three-band Accelerated-Slope™ EQ allows full cut of each band. The EQ engage switch lets you A/B compare or quickly transform the EQ effect. • Two 10-segment meters provide dual-mono-Cue or stereo-Master operation. • Yes, we included a power switch on the rear. The flexibility of the TTM 56 faders can result in some initial confusion. We highly recommend trying one thing at a time to avoid this. Make sure the CHANNEL REVERSE switch is off. Start by changing the Mode and Contour of each fader, one at a time. See the diagrams on pages Manual-6-7 to understand the fader responses under different settings. Once you understand the controls, start creating!
