INTERNAL DIGITAL EFFECTS
There are two Effects Processors available in the
TTM 57SL. Digital Effects hang out in the mixer
instead of the software so they are available for
signal processing even when Scratch Live is not
running. Each processor can load one of ten
effects:
• Echo [post fader]
• Hold Echo [post fader]
• HP Echo [post fader]
• HP Hold Echo [post fader]
• LP Filter (Low Pass) [pre fader]
• BP Filter (Band Pass) [pre fader]
• HP Filter (High Pass) [pre fader]
• Phaser [pre fader]
• Flanger [pre fader]
• Desecrator [pre fader]
When the Scratch Live software is running,
the deployed effect for each Effect Processor
is shown on the computer screen, along with
all of the control assignments and settings.
The Effects are still available when the mixer
is operating stand-alone, however, there is
no display for indicating the deployed Effect,
control assignment or settings.
Scratch Live software effect controls mirror
the TTM 57SL front panel. When one status
changes, so does the other.
For this reason, you may want to begin by
using the Effects with Scratch Live software
to learn control assignments. Typically, Effects
are controlled by ear. If you know which Effect
is installed in the Effects Processors and what
controls are assigned to what functions, the
Effects are very usable without the software. The
function of the controls has been standardized
to help keep stand-alone operation simple. The

TTM 57SL ships with Echo in Processor 1, and
LP Filter in Processor 2 before Scratch Live
reassigns them.
NOTE: These defaults can be changed and
saved to the mixer. See “Save to Mixer” on
page 30.
GROUP 6
If you are connected to the Scratch Live software,
switch to Group 6 to begin using Effects. Press
GROUP then B6. SEE “GROUPS” ON PAGE 34.
INSERTING AN EFFECT
There are four possible insert points for a
deployed Effect: PGM 1, PGM 2, AUX BUS or
Main Mix. When an Effects Processor is inserted
in PGM 1 or PGM 2, pre- or post-fader operation
is determined by the Effect. Both the Echo
Effects are post-fader, and all the Filter Effects
are pre-fader. Both Effects Processors can use
the same insert point, but the order depends on
the effect. For instance, the Filter effect will be
processed rst (because it is pre-fader), and the
Echo effect will be processed second (because it
is post-fader). If both are Filter Effects, Processor
1 will be rst.
NOTE: Any Effect can only be loaded into one
of the processors.
The controls required to select an Effects
Processor and determine it’s insert point are
shown below. The DECK button selects the
Effects Processor to be controlled. Pressing the
button toggles between Effects Processor 1 and
Effects Processor 2.
B1 inserts the selected processor in PGM 1.
B2 inserts the selected processor in PGM 2.
B3 inserts the selected processor in AUX Bus.
B4 inserts the selected processor in Main Mix.
To share an effect with both PGM 1 and PGM2,
insert the effect in the Aux Bus and use the
FlexFX switches. Remember that an effect in the
Aux Bus affects the FlexFX, Mic and Aux Inputs.

HARDWARE & SOFTWARE CONTROL
PANELS
These “soft” controls have multiple functions for
controlling Serato Scratch Live software. These
also control the Internal Digital Effects when
the mixer is operated stand-alone without a
computer. The Effects function the same way if
connected to the Scratch Live software or when
using the TTM 57SL standalone.
