STEREO INPUT CHANNEL SECTION - continued
22 – AUX 4/EFX 2 Effects Send (TXM20 only)
The TXM16 and TXM20 provides high quality, 24 Bit digital
effects, and the level of effects can be set independently
on each channel. The stereo channel’s EFX (Effects) knob
controls the amount of signal that is sent to the EFX bus.
The signal of the EFX bus is routed to the second DSP EFX
section for on-board signal processing. The EFX2 signal
can also be sent to an external effect device connected to
the EXF 2 SEND jack located on the front panel jack field.
NOTE: The signal feeding EFX1 and EFX2 is sent after the
channel Fader (14), so the channel Fader has an effect on
that level, meaning the Aux level tracks up and down with
the channel Fader. This means that the amount of signal
that is sent to the EFFECTS bus will be affected not only
by the setting of the EFX knob control, but it will also be
affected by the setting of the channel Fader volume con-
trol.
23 - BALANCE - Control
The TXM16 and TXM20’s BALANCE control is used to place,
or position, the stereo signal into the main Left and Right
stereo mix field. You can create a stereo image by panning
some input signals to the left and others to the right.
24 - MUTE switch
The Stereo Input channels feature a large backlit MUTE
switch allowing you to easily turn that channel on or off.
When the MUTE switch is illuminated, the channel is off,
conversely, when the backlight is off, the channel is on.
25 - PFL (Pre Fader Listen) switch
The Stereo Input channel’s PFL, or Pre Fader Listen switch
allows you to listen, or “solo” a channel or group of chan-
nels in the headphones. When the a stereo input channel’s
PFL switch is pressed down, that channel’s signal is
assigned to the solo bus and can be heard in any optional
headphones plugged in to the PHONES connector located
in the front panel jack field. Since the signal is sent pre
fader, you can hear the signal regardless of the position
of the channel volume Fader. This allows you to listen a
channel by itself, let's say, to see if an artist is out of tune,
or to cue up a channel without having to play it through
the main PA speakers.
26 – PEAK LED
The TXM16 and TXM20’s MIC/LINE pre-amp also includes a
PEAK LED which, when illuminated, indicates that the sig-
nal is peaking or overloading. To reduce distortion, lower
the GAIN control to keep this LED from staying on.
27- VOLUME - Fader Level Control
The VOLUME Fader control adjusts the level of the stereo
channel.
