Those of you who said to check the string win the prize!  I remembered that I took a skinny string off of this bow to put on a longbow.  Once set back up to spec with the skinny string, Bow Hush, and Hush Puppies, I'm very comfortable with how quiet she is.  
Thanks for everyones input.  I was really getting bummed out because I did not remember the bow being problematic with sound.

my titan set up was the same way and I got it almost longbow quiet.   put some velco or silencing material on the string track then install 4 bundles of cat whiskers cat around 1 1/4".   did the job for me

How tight are your arrow nocks on the string?

Its probably not as loud as you think. Just different than a longbow. Have someone else shoot it and stand nearby...I bet you'll be surprised.
