Important Facts About the Rane TTM 56 Mixer

DJs need a quality mixer to put on a good live performance. Rane is known for creating high-quality DJ mixers, like the Rane TTM 56 Mixer. The following questions will give you the basic information you need to know before buying a new or used Rane TTM 56 mixer on eBay.

Typically, there are two types of music players used with a mixer by contemporary DJs in order to mix music: CD players and vinyl turntables. Each mixer channel has a stereo input, meaning you can mix up to four devices at once using the Rane TTM 56 analog mixer. The inputs are phono, but they can also be switched to line inputs for devices with a 1/4-inch cable for connectivity. You can switch between the devices while mixing by using the crossfader at the bottom. You can switch between devices on the same channel using Rane_x001A_s Channel-Swap technology.

Rane has a propriety technology for all faders on its boards, which is designed around magnetism. Because the faders are held in place by magnets, there is contact between the faders and the device, providing a few advantages to users. The reduced contact eliminates wear and tear on the device, helping it last longer. It also creates more accurate positioning because the faders don't slip as easily when they bump or the mixer is moved during a performance.

The Rane TTM 56 mixer is powerful and accurate. There is an array of different features driving it. Here are some of the highlights of those features:

• Crossfader control - You can adjust the contour of the crossfader, meaning it can either be a hard cut to the other channel or a smooth blend.
• Channel-fader control - The control technology is also applied to the channel faders, changing how drastic the effect is when you adjust the volume on each channel.
• 3-Band EQ - Each channel has a 3-band EQ, so you can adjust the highs, mids, and lows on each channel in real time, preventing distortion and clipping.
• Auxiliary input - The aux input allows DJs to input an instrument into the mixer so that they can add that to their performance; this is commonly used with drum machines and samplers.

Effects are added to each channel on the affordable Rane TTM 56 by using the FlexFX Effects Loop. Each channel has a wet/dry knob that helps users mix the effects on the channel with the dry signal. Effects on the board include reverb, delay, and chorus in addition to the equalizers.
