MACKIE TT24 A DIGITAL CONSOLE FOR ANALOG MINDS.
The idea behind Mackie’s new TT24™ Digital Live Console was simple.
We wanted to give engineers all the benefits of live digital mixing
— like instant recall, built-in dynamics, and software control —
within reach of two hands and a modest budget. After spending considerable
R&D time and big bucks designing and refining this concept console,
we proudly introduce the real-world-ready TT24, the first digital
live console designed by analog mixer fanatics.
The TT24 is a fully digital 24-bit/96kHz mid-sized console which
gives engineers full automation and recall of levels, EQ, effects,
routing and more. And unlike other affordable digital consoles,
designed primarily as recording desks, the TT24 puts gobs of standard
analog and digital I/O right on the rear panel. Not to mention being
far easier to learn and use by the average live sound engineer.
BUSTIN' WITH ANALOG I/O!
Affordable digital consoles have historically been developed as
production mixers, with live features added as an afterthought.
As such, they are notoriously limited in terms of mic channels and
outputs. The TT24's rear panel, however, is bustin' with analog
I/O: 24 mic/line channels, 8 line inputs, 2 CD/Tape inputs, Talkback
Mic input, L/R & C (mono) Main outputs, 12 Auxiliary sends,
and 8 Group/Matrix outputs. (Click here for a sexy rear panel shot.)
Of course, you can also expand the TT24 using optional I/O cards,
and even link two consoles together for a mondo 48-fader/72-input/96-channel
version.
DSP WHERE YOU NEED IT
The TT24 team spent a great deal of time figuring out a way to access
and apply all of the TT24’s onboard DSP power in a way that’s practical,
intuitive, and fast enough for live sound. All 24 mic inputs all
have 4-band EQ, Comp/Limiter, and Gate available within two button
presses; and the 8 line inputs have the 4-band EQ as well. So by
installing a TT24, you can say goodbye to your bulky, expensive
rack of outboard dynamics processors and equalizers forever. Read

FLEX GROUPS: A TT EXCLUSIVE!
The TT24's Flex Groups consist of 8 groups individually configurable
as mono, stereo or VCA-style groups with dedicated group faders.
You can tailor these groups specifically for your application, whether
its traditional analog-style Mono groups, Stereo groups on a single
fader, or VCA groups—a feature not available on any console, digital
or analog, at this price. Of course, the Flex Group faders are in
addition to the 24 channel faders to avoid bank switching during
normal operation.
AUX MODE: INSTANT MONITOR CONSOLE!
Using Aux mode, the TT24 can be turned into a full-featured professional
monitor console with a single button press. (To make things easy,
we made Aux Mode the only blue button on the console.) In Aux mode,
the TT24 channel faders become Aux Send levels, while Group faders
become Aux Send masters. This makes the TT24 a great front-of-house
console or an ideal monitor mixing console depending on your application.
WHAT IS MATRIX PLUS?
This is where things get jiggy. The TT24's Matrix Plus is a type
of digital patching not possible with analog consoles. Basically,
it lets you patch any source into the Matrix, providing you with
additional sub-mixes for cry rooms, green rooms, broadcast, recording
and monitoring. So the next time you need to run another mix, it's
not a problem
TT CONTROL SOFTWARE
The TT24 ships with Mackie’s powerful TT Control software, which
can be used to control and monitor the console using a laptop or
desktop PC. Once connected via a single USB cable, TT Control software
provides a large, full-color view of the TT24’s touchscreen. In
addition to providing a larger view, the TT Control software’s interface
was designed with daylight usage in mind (i.e. we used black lines
on white backgrounds or bright yellow text on black backgrounds).
In default setting, the TT24's LCD screen is mirrored in the in
the software, making it easy to keep your hands on the control surface
with your eyes on the computer monitor. But the software can also
be set up to operate independently of the console if a second engineer
is working. Additionally, TT Control allows for convenient file
saving and
firmware upgrades via PC.
