I would be most interested in the source for your statement. At the page linked to below here you will find this text:
46S-LP "Titan":
6/4 size
4 front action piston steel valves (Big Valve)
Bore: .748in (4th valve: .787in)
left hand activated 5th and 6th rotary valves (.767in)
Bell diameter: 16.5in
Halftone trigger (left hand thumb)
My interpretation thereof says: 4 pistons for the right hand and 2 rotors for the left hand. Additionally a trigger for the second valve to be activated by the left thumb.
Which is pretty much in accordance with my original reply.
