SECTION I – RECORDING WITH THE OMEGA
Now that we've covered the operation of the Omega hardware, let's see how to use the
Omega Studio in some typical recording situations. The diagram below shows how the
Omega Studio is connected for this particular setup.
A. RECORDING A MICROPHONE INPUT
1. Plug your microphone cable into the Mic 1 XLR jack on the
