Chapter 6: Touchscreen and TT Control
Most of the TT24’s configuration occurs on the Touchscreen and/or the TT
control software. This section discusses the general conventions for both in-
terfaces. Since the TT control software screens mirror and elaborate the Touch-
screens, they will not be discussed except to define their functional differences.
In both the Touchscreen and TT control, the Ctrl key has a useful function:
Press and hold the Ctrl key and adjust any TT control parameter to restore its
default value. For example, press and hold Ctrl and adjust a Pan knob to set it
to the center position, or adjust an EQ Gain knob to set it to 0 dB.
NOTE:
The Touchscreen and TT control screens can be synchronized, so displaying a new
screen on one displays the corresponding screen on the other, or independent,
allowing two engineers simultaneous access to the console. They are synchro-
nized by default. See page 91 to toggle this setting.

TT Control Conventions
The TT control software expands the TT24’s control possibilities by providing:
• Remote control of all functions from a PC connected via USB
• Improved metering and graphics than can be displayed on the Touchscreen
• Remote Venue/Preset management and console–>console backup/restore
• Console firmware upgrade capability
• Detailed Snapshot management
The TT24 connects to the PC via a USB cable (six-ft cable supplied). The
minimum PC requirements are summarized below.
