Figure 6-28 OPERATION SETUP

CENTER MODE 

Choose between the two CENTER MODE options: 

L/R 

+ MONO

 and 

LCR

. See 

L/R+Mono

 and 

LCR Modes

 on 

page 24 for an explanation of these modes. 

INPUT DSP Routing

Input DSP Routing allows you to route the 24 chan-

nels of DSP normally assigned to the analog bank to the 
digital bank instead. This takes the Trim, Phase, HPF, 
EQ, Gate, and Compressor from all 24 analog inputs and 
moves them to the digital channels 25-48. Additionally, 
when a UFX-II card is inserted in a TT24 and being used 
to load the digital channels 25-48 with DSP both the 
analog and digital buttons are lit indicating that DSP 
exists on both channels.

NOISE SUPPRESSION

Touch the 

ENABLE

 button to activate the Noise Sup-

pression feature. This reduces the noise floor by activat-
ing low-level noise gates and eliminating noise from 
unused channels. A master threshold control allows you 
to adjust the trigger point for the gates (the range is 
–70 dB to –50 dB).

6.13.2 General 

Figure 6-29 GENERAL SETUP

PRE FADER AUX SENDS GLOBAL 

Pre-fader Aux sends can be globally changed to pre-or 

post-mute. This feature facilitates using the TT24 for 
both FOH and monitors. For example, the monitors 
are normally fed by pre-fader Aux sends. During a set 
change, to reset the mics for the next band, they must 
be muted in the monitors. This requires the pre-fader 
Aux sends to be pre-mute. 

PC AUTO FOLLOW 

The TT control software can be set to operate inde-

pendently from the Touchscreen or to 

follow

 it. When 

independent, two users may simultaneously control the 
TT24, one from the Touchscreen and one from the PC. 

SELECT FOLLOWS SOLO 

Select Follows Solo allows channel selection to be 

dependent on pressing the channel’s solo button. This 
feature is useful during initial set-up and mixing for 
quick access to channel editing when soloing channels 
into the monitor and headphone bus.

UNITS OF MEASUREMENT 

This allows U.S. or metric units of measurement to 

used for console settings. 

FADERS and SCREEN CALIBRATE 

Touch either of these 

CALIBRATE

 buttons to follow sim-

ple instructions to calibrate the faders and Touchscreen. 

EXCLUSIVE SOLO 

Select 

EXCLUSIVE SOLO

 to deactivate previous SOLO 

selections upon a new one. For example, if channel 1 is 
soloed, pressing channel 2’s 

SOLO

 button automatically 

unsolos channel 1. Even with 

EXCLUSIVE SOLO

 se-

lected, multiple channels can be soloed by holding down 
the Ctrl key while pressing a 

SOLO

 button. When not se-

lected, multiple channels can be soloed simultaneously. 

V-POT SPEED

The speed and responsiveness of all V-Pot and 

QuickMix knob functions (except Pan) are affected by 
the eight position V-POT SPEED setting. “Fast” allows 
the V-Pot to travel through the entire range of a param-
eter in one full turn of the encoder. “Slow” allows for 
finer control and requires more than one turn to travel 
through the range of a parameter.
