The diversity delay is turned off, but there is still a full second of delay
through the unit. Can this be reduced?
No. The one second of delay is normal and integral to the the processing algorithms. In applications
where analog FM and HD are broadcast, this should not be an issue as the analog audio must be
delayed to match the digital audio.
A dedicated low-latency Studio processing core is provided for talent monitoring. This can be used if
Omnia.7 is located at the studio, or if a suitable low-delay return path is available from the transmitter site.
Otherwise, we suggest using an older processor you may have available (or an Omnia.ONE Studio Pro)
to drive talent headphones.
I want to use the AES/EBU digital output to feed my linear digital STL at the
studio. How do I activate this function?
Simply navigate to Home > System > I/O Options > Main Outputs and set the AES/EBU output to "FM
Pre-emph L/R".
I found a preset I like, but I need more loudness.
Some of the factory presets are "custom built for speed" right out of the box, and are already extracting as
much loudness as possible from Omnia.7 without crossing the line where tighter dynamics and more
clipping would simply degrade the audio.
However, most presets have been created for a particular spectral mix or texture and have plenty of
"room to grow" in terms of loudness without compromising overall quality. If you find you like one of these
presets but just need more loudness, navigate to Home > FM > Processing > Clipper and advance the
final clipper drive. Notice that it is possible to make 0.25dB adjustments; this is an indication that small
adjustments are warranted here. We suggest advancing clipper drive no more than 0.50dB at a time as
you try to achieve more loudness.
I found a preset I like, but I wish it were more open-sounding.
See above, but in reverse! The clipper drive, more than any other single control, will have the greatest
impact on the tradeoff between a more dynamic and open sound and all-out loudness. Reduce the clipper
drive in small increments; we recommend 0.50dB at a time so that your station doesn't become too quiet
in your quest for openness.
