Samson TXM20 User Manual

This control adjusts the level of Headphone Output.

The TXM mixers provide a second set of output connec-

tors carrying a duplicate of the MAIN MIX signal for the 

purpose of feeding another speaker zone or recorder. The 

MAIN MIX 2 control knob is used to set the volume of the 

MAIN Mix 2 output. 

You can turn off channels 1 through 8 on the TXM16 and 

1 through 12 on the TXM20 with a press of a single button 

using the MUTE CH 1 – 8(12) switch. This is especially con-

venient when you take a break and want to leave all the 

levels set so they are ready when you begin to use your 

PA system again.  The MUTE 1-8 does not turn off chan-

nels 7/8 9/10, 11/12 and 13/14, and does not turn off the 

CD/TAPE inputs. So, when the MUTE CH 1 – 8(12) switch is 

on, you still have a 2-channel DJ mixer with two available 

mic inputs. The MUTE switch features an electronic circuit 

for silent switching that ramps the signal up and down to 

prevent pops when the switch is turned on and off.

The CD/TAPE input channel’s PFL, or Pre Fader Listen 

switch allows you to listen, or “solo” the CD/TAPE input in 

the headphones. When the CD/TAPE input channel’s PFL 

switch is pressed down, that channel’s signal is assigned 

to the solo bus and can be heard in any optional head-

phones plugged in to the PHONES connector located in 

the front panel jack field. Since the signal is sent pre fader, 

you can hear the signal regardless of the position of the 

channel Level control. This allows you to listen to a chan-

nel by itself: (let's say), to cue up a song on a CD player 

without having to play it through the main PA speakers.

The TXM16 and TXM20 have a dedicated line level CD/

TAPE input to connect a CD, Tape or MP3 player. The CD/

TAPE level fader control is used to adjust the volume of 

the signal connected to the CD/TAPE input. 

The TXM16 and TXM20 have a MONO output that can be 

used to send to a secondary speaker zone. You can also 

configure the MONO Output to drive a subwoofer system 

by using the built-in variable Low Pass Filter.
