INTRODUCTION Titian is an analog compressor-limiter with a very large range of color and control choices that has reset-ability. The main audio path is digitally controlled analog with discrete class A electronics. The side chain is built with a very high speed dsp that allows the design to push the limits beyond what is possible in the design of an analog side chain.
COMPRESSOR COLOR – (VCA COLOR) The control provides a mix between a very clean PWM gain control device and a vintage gain control element. The vintage gain control element is a diode type compressor circuit designed for a high level of color. There are 16 steps in the cross fade-mix control for a wide range in choices.
STEREO LINK When stereo linked the unit selected as the control master will control all functions on the second channel. The LCD display will show which unit is the control master. When working in stereo all controls on the slave unit are disabled. When switched out / bypassed, Titan is hard bypassed by a relay; this relay will also bypass the unit when power is off. LINK-IN-BYPASS For the Link - In - Out switch to work correctly in the link mode the unit that is to be the slave unit should be set to out.
