Rane TTM 56 - Manual (Page 5)

Manual-
Outputs
AUX OUT may be used for recording, booth monitoring, a second zone, or for connecting to another mixer for session mix. AUX
OUT is the same as the Master Mix with independent Level control.
MASTER OUT includes two sets of stereo outputs: The ¼" TRS jacks provide high current balanced (Tip-Ring-Sleeve) output.
Use the balanced output whenever driving equipment with a balanced input, or when running distances greater than 10 feet (3
meters). Due to the high drive capability and low impedance, never use a mono ¼" Tip/Sleeve (no ring) plug in this jack. Use the
RCA unbalanced outputs for shorter runs connecting to unbalanced devices. See the RaneNote “Sound System Interconnection”
if you need to convert between balanced and unbalanced or run long distances.
Mic Section
MIC LEVEL sets the gain of the
Mic Input. The range of opera-
tion is OFF to +50 dB. There
is no engage switch, so set the
MIC LEVEL to zero (0) when
not in use.
The OL indicator lights 6 dB before
clipping. Adjust MIC LEVEL
so the OL indicator flashes only
when you shout into the mic.
MIC HIGH and LOW tone con-
trols provide as much as 12 dB
of boost or 12 dB of cut. These
controls have no effect when the
controls are set to their center
detent (12 o'clock).
Program and Aux Input Section
PGM 1 inputs are sent to the left side of the crossfader. (with the REVERSE switch out)
PGM 2 inputs are sent to the right side of the crossfader. (with the REVERSE switch out)
AUX INPUT adds another line-level input to the mix. This input comes in after the crossfader and FlexFX Loop.
GAIN controls adjust the signal level before it gets to the Faders. Set the GAIN controls to indicate an average signal level of +4
on the meter with the program faders set to maximum. Don't use the GAIN controls to set the output level...use the MASTER
LEVEL control to set the output level. This is a very simple thing, yet makes a huge difference in the performance of your mixer.
EQ switches engage the 3-band tone controls. EQ switches may be used in conjunction with the Hi, Mid and Low controls as “kill”
switches. Set the rotary controls and flip the switch.
HIGH tone controls affect frequencies above 4 kHz. The range of control is +6 dB to OFF (full kill). The center detent position leaves
this filter inactive. This filter is just above the vocal range, and can make small tonal changes, or eliminate high frequency signals.
MID tone controls affect frequencies from 300 Hz to 4 kHz (vocal midrange). The range of control is +6 dB to OFF (full kill). The
center detent position leaves this filter inactive. Use for small tonal changes or to cut midrange signals.
LOW tone controls affect frequencies below 300 Hz. The range is +6 dB to OFF (full kill). The center detent position leaves the filter
inactive. These filters influence signals below the vocal range. Use to adjust or eliminate bass beats.
PAN controls adjust the Left and Right balance of PGM 1 and PGM 2. Don't use these excessively for left/right pan effect, they are
not as durable as the Faders. For left/right pan effect, use the program faders in Mode 2.
