Chapter 1: Introduction

1.1

Evolution of the TT24 Console

The professional live sound industry has been revolutionized over the past few 

years by high-end digital consoles. However, mid-size digital consoles have 

tended to emphasize studio applications with user interfaces encumbered by 

features (i.e., DAW control) not critical for live applications. Some of these 

consoles conceal their real cost by 

requiring

 the purchase of additional cards to 

supplement their limited physical I/O. 

The 

TT24 Digital Live Console 

is a mid-size digital mixer optimized for live 

sound applications. We have used our extensive expertise and experience de-

signing analog mixers to produce a powerful, easy-to-use digital console for a 

wide range of applications and budgets:

• theaters and houses of worship;

• permanent concert installations;

• professional live music touring companies.
