6 Channel Mic/Line Mixer
TX6000
Description
The TX6000 is a high specification, single rack space, 6 channel mic/line mixer suitable for desk
or rack mounting. The mixer is designed to operate from both AC mains power as well as 24
volts DC.
Inputs
Six dual mic/line inputs are provided. The mic inputs are active balanced and feature 3 pin XLR
female sockets. Each channel also includes dual female RCA line/aux sockets.
Outputs
The TX6000 features a balanced line output via a 3 pin XLR male socket. A mono tape output
is also available via dual female RCA sockets. A 1/4” mono headphone socket is included on
the front panel.
Controls
Front panel controls include a master output level control plus overall bass and treble controls.
Individual channel level controls are provided for all six inputs.

A 7 segment LED meter is provided for the master output. A power “on” LED is also included.
Muting
Muting is available via the optional VOX operated plug-in TX3010 or TX3014 precedence
cards. The TX3010 provides priority from channel 1 over all other channels. The TX3014 pro-
vides two levels of priority. Channel 1 is the master mute channel and overrides channels 2-6,
whereas channels 2 will mute channels 3-6 only.

through a rear panel slot below the 24V DC connector. Each tone can be activated by a sim-
ple contact closure.
