coaxial RCA cable from the DAT player's S/PDIF output to the Omega Studio's S/PDIF
input.
1. Plug the S/PDIF output of your device into the S/PDIF
input of the Lexicon Omega.
2. Press the

SECTION II - SUBMIXING ON THE OMEGA

The Omega Studio has a total of 9 inputs (2 mic, 4
line, 1 instrument and 2 digital) and 6 channels of
USB audio (4 in and 2 out). This allows you to record
4 separate simultaneous tracks at one time. In some
cases you may want to use more than 4 inputs. To do
this you will need to mix some of the inputs together
on one USB bus. This is called submixing since the
audio is mixed before it is recorded.
Here is how this technique works on the Omega. When two sets of inputs are assigned
to the same USB bus assign, the 2 inputs on the right mix together and the 2 inputs on
the left mix together.
So if the USB Assigns for the Line inputs are all set to USB 1-2 (red LEDs on), Line 1 and
Line 3 would get recorded to the first track, and Line 2 and Line 4 would get recorded
to the second track. Inputs that are not assigned to USB 1-2 assign would be recorded
separately – for example, Mic 1 and Mic 2 could be assigned to USB 3-4.

SECTION III - RECORDING MIDI

tions as a MIDI USB interface. This allows you
to record MIDI data from a keyboard's MIDI
output into a MIDI track of Cubase LE 4,
and to play that MIDI data back from the
computer into a keyboard, sound module
or effects processor.
