Controls and Functions
24BIT DIGITAL EFFECT SECTION
The TXM16 and TXM20 feature built-in, 24 Bit Digital
Multi-effects Processor(s) with 100 dazzling, studio qual-
ity effects like Delay, Chorus, Flanging and lush Reverbs
including Halls, Plates and Rooms. In addition, there are
multi-effects presets that have two effects combined
together. For example, Delay and Reverb or Reverb and
Chorus, to name a few. The following section describes
the features control knobs and layout of the powerful on-
board digital Multi-effects section.
28 - Program Effects Display
The TXM series mixers Multi-effects Processors feature
a dual digit, seven-segment numerical Effects Display
for showing the effects PROGRAM number from 00 - 99.
You will see the PROGRAM numbers change as you scroll
through the effects pre-set using the DSP SELECT control.
When the Effects Display shows two straight lines through
the center of each segment, the effects are turned off and
the EFX ON switch is in the out position. See section num-
ber 31 below.
29 - Effect PROGRAM List
This section identifies the ten banks of built-in DSP effects
presets. The first bank of 10 presets have been pro-
grammed with common effects for live performance, and
the following banks are set up in groups by the types of
effects.
30- SELECT control knob
The SELECT control knob is a continuously variable
encoder, or tweaker, that allows you to call up one of
the 100 built-in digital effects presets. Simply rotate the
SELECT knob to scroll through the preset programs using
the Effects Display to choose the effect number you want.
31 – EFX ON switch
The EFX ON switch is used to turn the internal Digital
Effect on and off. The effects are by-passed when the
switch is in the out position and the Effects Display shows
two dashes.
32 - AUX 1 RTN - Effects Return to Aux 1 control knob
The AUX 1 RTN control is used to adjust the level of the
effects from the built-in digital Multi-effect that’s being
sent to the Aux 1 monitor bus. This allows you to add the
DSP effects to the signal in your monitor speakers. Turn
this knob up if you want to hear the effect in the AUX 1
monitor mix.
33 - AUX 2 RTN - Effects Return Control
The AUX 2 RTN control is used to adjust the level of the
effects from the built-in digital Multi-effect being that’s
being sent to the Aux 2 monitor bus. This allows you to
add the DSP effects to the signal in your monitor speak-
ers. Turn this knob up if you want to hear the effect in the
AUX 2 monitor mix.
34 - EFX SEND - Master Effect Send
The master EFX SEND control is used to send the effect
mix bus to an external effect device connected to the EFX
OUT SEND jack.
35 - EFX RTN 1 PFL (Pre Fader Listen) - switch
The EXF RTN 1’s PFL, or Pre Fader Listen switch allows you
to listen, or “solo” the EFX 1 Return or group of channels
in the headphones. When a stereo input channel’s PFL
switch is pressed down, the EFX RTN 1 signal is assigned
to the solo bus and can be heard in any optional head-
phones 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
EXF RTN 1 volume Fader. This allows you to listen a EFX
RTN 1 by itself: (let's say) to see if a reverb is long enough,
or to cue up an echo without having to play it through
the main PA.
36 – EFX RTN 1 FADER - Effects Level Control
The EFX RTN 1 fader control is used to adjust the level
of the effects from the built-in digital Multi-effect that’s
being sent to the MAIN mix bus. This allows you to hear
the DSP effects in your MAIN speakers.
37 – TXM20’s Effect 2 control strip
Same as functions 28 – 36 for DSP Multi-effects number 2.
