 The Transporter looks like a very interesting device. I have a few
 questions/comments:..
 
 3. The specs indicate that the selectable attenuation is only available
 on the unbalanced analogue output. I would like to see this also
 available on the balanced analogue output - my ATC speakers have
 balanced inputs and it would make sense to drive them from the balanced
 outputs, and there would certainly need to be some sort of attenuation
 to avoid blowing out the windows! Is it too late in the development
 process to ask for this to be considered?

I own ATC SCM150ASL active pro speakers.  I haven't had them long but
love them.  Why do you suspect that 0db attenuation (i.e none) will be
too much gain for the active ATC's?   I don't know anything about
impedance matches, etc. so I'm really asking in a void.  Is the volume
control not granular enough to have it turned down low?  Thanks,
Ted

Dean, thanks for clarifying these issues.

 Alas, no, the attenuation is only in the unbalanced outputs.  You may 
 
 be able to find inline passive attenuators, http:// 
 www.rothwellaudioproducts.co.uk/html/attenuators.html for example,  
 that will work for this application.
£69 for a pair of attenuators? Rothwell needs a lesson in
value-for-money from Slim Devices! I'll just solder potential dividers
into the XLR plugs: 1/4 watt resistors are plenty small enough, and
cost pennies.

Performers - dozens of mixers and effects - clipped/hypercompressed
mastering - you think a few extra ps of jitter matters?

Hum...

Not supported at present, but it would probably be possible to do
either of the following:
1) for largest font split the display so top line appears on left
screen and bottom line appears on right screen
2) treat both screens as a single screen - not sure how this would look
with the gap between the two and knob in the middle though.
