Faders
e program faders and crossfader
are magnetic, non-contact faders. is
means No travel noise or bleed ! e
electrical performance of the faders
is unaected by use. e program
faders and crossfader each have their
own Contour and Reverse (hamster)
controls. Magnetic faders are very dif-
ferent from what you are used to. Read
Maintaining Magnetic Faders on
pages Manual 8-9.
CHANNEL SWAP switch allows
the left-hand or right-hand Fader to
alternately control PGM 1 or PGM 2.
(Don't confuse with the REVERSE
switches, see below.)
CONTOUR controls allow smooth,
continuous adjustment of contour. e
range of control is from SLOW blend
to FAST cut, adjustable independently
for each fader and the crossfader. See
the illustrations on the next page.
REVERSE switches change the direc-
tion of the faders. When a Reverse
switch is engaged on a PGM fader,
up is down and down is up (hamster).
When the Reverse switch is engaged
on the Crossfader, PGM 1 goes to the
B side and PGM 2 goes to the A side.
Meters
Meters provide switchable true stereo
Master Mix or dual-mono PGM1 /
PGM2 indication of Pre-Program fad-
er signal levels. Ten-segment resolution
is provided with a one second, peak
hold. Use the meter to set the GAIN
controls. With the program fader set to
maximum, the input GAIN should be
set to indicate an average level of about
+4 dB.
• e headphone output of the TTM
56S delivers very high volume.
• To avoid pain, never put headphones
on your head before plugging them in.
• Always start with the PHONES Level
turned down, and then turn it up.
• Because of the high current and low
output impedance, never short one
side to ground, or short left and right
together as is possible with mono cup
headphones.
• Low power headphone stages typically
use large resistors on their outputs,
which allow shorting, but prevent high
power. e TTM 56S gives you high
power, but does not allow shorting.

Headphone Cueing
PHONES Level control sets the out-
put level of the headphone amplier.
MASTER / CUE switch is used to
select the headphone monitor source:
Use MASTER (out) to rehearse your
performance. is signal is the same as
the Master Out, but is not aected by
the Master Level control.
Use CUE (in) to monitor the Program
Input signal before fading in. is
signal is not aected by the Program
Faders or Crossfader. Because the Eects
Loop is after the Fader, you will not hear
eects in the Cue.
CUE slider Pans between PGM 1 and
PGM 2 in the headphones when the
CUE switch is depressed. When the
switch is released, this control has no
eect.
e headphone amp in the TTM56S
has a high power output (unlike most
you have used before). ere are no-
table dierences…
