FlexFX Loop FlexFX switches send PGM 1, PGM 2 or both to the stereo effects loop. The effects loop is post-fader and post-crossfader. You get great results when using the program faders or crossfader with reverb or other delay effects. The effects loop provides separate stereo send and return jacks.

FlexFX Loop
FlexFX
switches send PGM 1, PGM 2 or both to the stereo effects loop. °e effects loop is post-fader and post-crossfader. You get
great results when using the program faders or crossfader with reverb or other delay effects. °e effects loop provides separate
stereo send and return jacks. °e green indicators light when FlexFX is engaged.
WET/DRY
pan control lets you set the amount of effect in the mix. DRY equals no effect, WET gives maximum effect.
Output Section
MASTER
control sets the level for both the unbalanced and balanced Master Outputs.
AUX OUTPUT
control sets the level of the Auxiliary Outputs.
Headphone Cueing
°e headphone amp in the TTM 56 has a high power output (unlike most you have used before). °ere
are notable differences…
°e headphone output of the TTM 56 delivers very high volume to your headphones.
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 to the desired level.
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 56 gives you high power, but does not allow shorting.
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 affected by the MASTER LEVEL control.
Use
CUE
(
in
) to monitor the Program Input signal before fading in. °is signal is not affected by
the Program Faders or Crossfader.
Because the Effects Loop is after the Fader, you will not hear effects
in the Cue.
CUE
slider allows you to PAN between PGM 1 and PGM 2 in the headphones when the MASTER / CUE switch is depressed. When
the switch is released, this control has no effect.
PHONES LEVEL
control sets the output level of the headphone amplifier.

CHASSIS GROUNDING NOTE
If your system exhibits excessive hum or buzzing, there is an incompatibility in the grounding
configuration between units somewhere. Here are some things to try:
1. Check that the turntable grounding wires are connected to the PHONO GND posts.
2. Try combinations of lifting grounds on units that are supplied with ground lift switches or links.
3. If your equipment is in a rack, verify that all chassis are tied to a good earth ground, either
through the line cord grounding pin or the rack screws to another grounded chassis, or tied to
the ground screw located next to the POWER switch.
4. °is unit’s outboard power supply does
not
ground the chassis through the line cord. Make sure
that this unit is grounded either to another chassis which is earth grounded, or directly to the
grounding screw on an AC outlet cover by means of a wire connected to a screw on the chassis
with a star washer to guarantee proper contact.
