In addition, it is possible to force individual physical outputs to be fed from the mixers associated with
other outputs. This is useful, for example, in driving multiple physical stereo outputs from the same
stereo bus. Note that the routing matrix precedes the Assignable level control, so that ganged outputs
may still be individually controlled.
The output mixers are primarily intended to provide low-latency foldback or monitor mixes
incorporating Titan's audio inputs in conjunction with feeds from the DAW software - since the mix is
performed locally, the delay involved in passing live audio up to the host computer and back is
removed. However, it is also possible to configure the output mixers for general purpose use, where
inputs can be mixed to outputs without involving the Host's audio at all. Having set up such mixes
using the Titan Control Panel app, it is possible to use
with no computer connected.
For more information, see the

section.

Assignable level control

Titan's front panel has a large assignable level control. This control can be assigned individually to
any of Titan's analogue or digital (including ADAT) outputs (but excluding the headphone output which
has its own dedicated level control). Operation of the front panel control fades all assigned outputs.
The setting of the control is indicated by a halo of LEDs around the knob. The assignable level control
is primarily intended as a stereo monitor control.
Pressing the knob engages a mute mode wherein the LED halo flashes and the assigned outputs are
muted.
Assignment is via the

Headphone outputs

The headphone output signal path differs from Titan's other output signal paths in a couple of
respects.
Firstly, in the

of radio buttons for quickly ganging the headphone outputs onto the mixer of any other stereo output
which it is desired to monitor on the headphones, without having to use the drop list in the headphone
selector. Note that the headphone monitoring point of the outputs is before the application of the
output routing matrix and the assignable gain control (if assigned).
Second, the headphone output cannot be assigned to the assignable gain control. This is because it
already has its own dedicated volume control on the front panel.

Metering system

Titan's front panel meters can meter the level of either inputs or outputs as selected in the
Settings tab
of the

analogue inputs (or outputs); the right-most pair show the level of the S/PDIF inputs (or outputs). The
bar-graphs change colour progressively from blue, through green to orange as signal level increases.
A red 'overload' LED is lit if the signal reaches -0.05dBFS. Each of the analogue meters has an
indicator beneath which shows when the
