Prism Sound Titan USB Interface With Ultimate Collection

Prism Sound Titan USB Interface With Ultimate Collection

Titan and Atlas are world class multi-track interfaces offering flexible expansion and unsurpassable sonic clarity. Using the latest generation of Prism Sounds trusted conversion, Titan is ideal for music and sound recording, multi-tracking, overdubbing, stem-based mastering, analogue summing and critical listening applications.

Unsurpassed Clocking and Jitter Rejection

Prism Sounds history in developing test and measurement equipment for the audio industry has allowed our engineers to get a much deeper understanding of digital clocking and its associated issues.

Digital Mixer With Flexible Monitoring

Titan has a powerful built-in digital mixer that can be configured to provide a multitude of ultra low latency feeds, Including foldback to performers, stereo and surround outputs.

Flexible I/O

Titan has a maximum capability of 18 concurrent input and output channels, offering 8 analogue recording channels, 8 monitoring outputs, stereo digital input and output on a phono connector plus concurrent optical digital I/O ports.

Multi-Channel I/O Expansion

In an ever changing world of I/O connectivity, the MDIO expansion slot allows your Prism Sound interface to remain relevant, increasing its lifespan and bring a much better return on your investment.
Both options allow you to stack multiple Titan or Atlas providing sample accurate phase locked audio between multiple units.

The DANTE module allows multiple Titan or Atlas units to be connected directly to a DANTE equipped network via a standard ethernet connection.

The Pro Tools MDIO-HDX module allows multiple Titan or Atlas units to be connected directly to an AVID Pro Tools HDX or HD native system via AVID’s “Digilink” connection.

Software

Titan’s front panel gives continuous visual indication of the unit’s main settings and levels, but in-depth control is managed from the Titan Controller applet. This runs on the DAW computer, and can be popped up whenever adjustments are needed.

The upper area of the applet shows a panel of ‘Global’ settings for the entire group of connected interfaces, and a panel of ‘Unit’ settings which is assignable to each connected unit in turn, using the enclosed drop-list. These settings are concerned with general parameters such as sync source and sample rate selection, metering and buffering modes. An ‘Identify’ button causes all the LEDs on the selected box to light, to assist with identification in multi-unit systems. To the right, there are large buttons for loading and saving setups, and for on-line help.
