[. . . ] · The CROSSFADER MODE switch allows selecting two sets of curves: MODE 1 gives the familiar PGM 1 to PGM 2 cross-fade response. MODE 2 gives a center cut response (PGM 1 and PGM 2 are off in the center). · Independent CONTOUR controls for each side of the Crossfader allow cut on one side and blending on the other (or any combination). · Auxiliary Inputs and Outputs, with independent level controls, give session mixing ability. [. . . ] (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. 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 may be used in conjunction with the Hi, Mid and Low controls as "kill" switches. 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). 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 Channel Faders in Mode 2. Manual-3 CHANNEL REVERSE switch allows the left-hand or right-hand Fader to alternately control PGM 1 or PGM 2. (Don't confuse with the Channel Fader REVERSE switch, see below. ) TRANSFORM switches provide two functions: · PHONO / LINE source selection for PGM 1 and 2. The switches are easily field replaceable and may be rotated in 45° increments. See page Manual10 for instructions. TTM 56 PERFORMANCE MIXER CHANNEL REVERSE REVERSE MODE 1 MODE 2 TRANSFORM TRANSFORM FAST MONO PGM1 / PGM2 STEREO HOUSE CONTOUR +10 +7 +4 +2 SLOW Faders The Channel Faders and Crossfader are magnetic, noncontact Faders. The Channel Faders and Crossfader each have their own CONTOUR, REVERSE (hamster) and MODE controls. Read Maintaining Magnetic Faders on pages Manual 89, and the Magnetic Fader Q & A section on page Manual10. Channel Fader MODE switch: Channel Fader Mode switches allow selecting two sets of curves. Channel Fader CONTOUR controls allow smooth, continuous adjustment of contour for both MODE 1 and MODE 2. Channel Fader REVERSE switches change the direction of the channel Faders. When the reverse switch is engaged, up is down and down is up (hamster). CROSSFADER MODE switch allows selecting two sets of curves for the Crossfader. MODE 2 gives a center cut response (PGM 1 and PGM 2 off in the center). CROSSFADER CONTOUR A & B provide Independent Contour controls for each side of the Crossfader. [. . . ] For information about replacement or calibration, contact Rane Customer Service. This allows you to put them back in the same location. Important Note CHASSIS GROUNDING If your system exhibits excessive hum or buzzing, there is an incompatibility in the grounding configuration between units somewhere. Check that the turntable grounding wires are connected to the PHONO GND posts. Try combinations of lifting grounds on units that are supplied with ground lift switches or links. [. . . ]
