Rane TTM 56 Performance Mixer

Rane TTM 56 is a professional two-channel DJ mixer designed for turntablists, performance, scratch and battle DJs. At the heart of the TTM 56 is the revolutionary magnetic crossfader and channel level faders.

Originally reserved for the most demanding industrial and aerospace applications, non-contact magnetic position sensor technology is implemented into the design of the crossfader. The result is a crossfader without travel noise, bleed and a mechanical life that exceeds 10 million strokes. The fader is also tolerant to moisture, smoke, temperature and other elements that are known to accelerate wear.

The highly responsive faders are extremely sensitive to subtle hand movements. Completely adjustable contour curves are provided for smooth transitions and quick cuts and scratches. Incredible sound quality and performance are synonymous with all Rane mixers and the TTM 56 is no exception with 3-band accelerated slope EQ controls on each channel, balanced and unbalanced outputs and rich sound throughout.

Features

Magnetic Fader
Rane's new proprietary magnetic fader is the fastest, most accurate, and long lasting on the planet. The design uses non-contact magnetic position sensor technology previously reserved for the most demanding aerospace and industrial applications. No travel noise - No bleed - ever! Unlike optical non-contact faders, the magnetic fader is impervious to smoke, moisture, temperature and aging. The electrical performance of these faders is totally unaffected by use. The mechanical life of the magnetic fader exceeds 10 million operations.

These magnetic faders know exactly what your hand is doing! A proprietary curve-translation module converts your hand motion into precise audio level control. The TTM 56 offers the user more flexible curve selection and fader assignment options than ever before. This technology is used for both Channel Faders and the Crossfader.

Crossfader Control
The Crossfader control includes Reverse switch, Mode switch and independent, continuously adjustable Contours for A-side and B-side. In Mode 1, the Contour control adjusts from smooth blend to extremely fast cut. Select Mode 2 for center-cut effect (PGM 1 and PGM 2 off in the center) with full range Contour control.

Channel Fader Control
The Channel Fader controls include Reverse switches, Mode switches and continuously adjustable Contours. In Mode 1, the Contour control adjusts from smooth blend to extremely fast cut. Select Mode 2 for Left/Right pan effect with Contour control. The Channel Reverse switch allows left and right hand Channel Faders to control Program 1 or Program 2.

Post-Fader FlexFx
Rane's proprietary FlexFx effects loop allows assigning post-fader Program 1, post-fader Program 2 or both to the effects loop. A Wet/Dry pan control gives the user total control of how much processed signal is in the mix. With the effects loop post-fader, reverb and other delay effects respond to both Channel Fader and Crossfader operation.

Stereo Metering
The TTM 56 features two 10-segment meters with peak-hold. A source switch allows users to select dual-mono Cue or stereo Master operation. No need to stress over dropping a channel without knowing.

Auxiliary Input and Output (Session Mix)
A stereo AUX Input with a Level control provides input for a session mix, drum machine or other auxiliary input signal. The stereo AUX Output with Level control provides output for Session Mix, Booth monitoring, recording or second zone.

3-Band Accelerated-Slope EQ
The TTM 56 provides 3-band, full cut tone controls for Program 1 and Program 2. EQ engage switches allow A/B comparison and the ability to quickly cut or add EQ effect.
