Samson TXM20 User Manual

TXM16 and TXM20 Features

The Samson TXM16 and TXM20 powered mixers are

comprehensive, all-in-one mixer/power amplifier

solutions for a variety of live sound applications.

Here are some of their main features:
• The TXM16 and TXM20 are sixteen and twenty

channel powered mixers in ergonomically correct,

table-top enclosures providing easy to see and

easy to operate front panel controls. In addition,

the TXM16 can be rack mounted using the includ-

ed eleven-space rack mount kit.

• Both TXM mixers use the same massive 1000-watt

power amplifier section, featuring three modes

of operation; 2 x 500-watts Stereo Main, or 500-

watt Mono Main/500-watt Monitor, or 1000-watts

Bridged Mono. And those power ratings are true

RMS, measured at full bandwidth.

• Ample inputs, the TXM16 has eight mic/line

inputs plus four stereo line inputs, while the

TXM20 features twelve mic/line inputs plus four

stereo line inputs. Plus dedicated stereo returns

for the onboard effects.

• The TXM16 has a built-in, 24-bit DSP (Digital

Signal Processor) Multi-effects Processor with 100

selectable presets offering dazzling studio quality

effects including Reverb, Delay and Chorus and

Flanging. The TXM20 feature two 24-bit DSP’s,

each with 100 selectable presets of studio quality

effects on each input.

• The TXM series mixers feature high-quality, low-

noise microphone pre-amplifiers that can accept a

signal from most any standard microphone. With

the mixer’s XLR connectors, connecting standard

low impedance dynamic mics is simple, and con-

denser microphones are connected easily using

the available 48 Volt Phantom Power.

• Each of the TXM16 and TXM 20’s mic / line chan-

nels feature a convenient Insert Point jack to patch

in external effects and a Three-band Equalizer

with variable mid-range control enabling you to

tailor the tonal response of each input.

• The TXM 16 has three auxiliary sends. Two Aux

sends on each channel for building two inde-

pendent monitor mixes, plus a third EFX send

for sending signal to the internal Multi-effects

Processor. The TXM 20 has 4 auxiliary sends. One

dedicated Aux send for monitors, plus a second

Aux send that can be set up to be either a monitor

send or an effects send using the Pre/Post switch,

and two additional EFX sends for sending to the

dual internal multi-effects processors.

• A Stereo 9-band Graphic Equalizer for the Main

left and right outputs, plus a Mono 9-band for the

Monitor output, allow the TXM mixers to be set-up

for maximum gain before feedback.

• Mono/ Subwoofer Output with variable Low-pass

Filter.

• A convenient Tape/CD Input is provided so you

connect a stereo device for accompaniment or

background music.

• The brilliant sound quality is achieved thanks to

the advanced circuit design, utilizing low-noise

operational amplifiers and low impedance busing.

• Durable steel enclosure is road tough insuring reli-

able performance from night to night and venue

to venue.

• The convenient, oversize grip handle make the

units easy to carry.

• Three-year extended warranty.
