Configuring I/O Sources and Settings
Omnia.9sg makes the perfect "split chassis" solution for Omnia.9 (and Omnia.7) customers who want the
benefits of having their main processor at the studio without sacrificing the advantages of having the
composite generator at the transmitter.
It's default settings presume that the "FM Pre-final L/R" output patchpoint found on Omnia.9 and Omnia.7
will be used to feed Omnia.9sg. However, the appeal of Omnia.9sg goes even further in that it can be
used to improve the quality and performance of any FM processor.
Select the Input Audio Source
Navigate to the Omnia.9sg > Stereo Generator > Input Selection menu and select the proper source
(analog or AES digital) for the primary and/or backup inputs. Only the primary input is required. If a
backup source is provided, it can be used as a failover source in the event of a loss of audio on the
primary input.
Adjust the Input Gain
From the Omnia.9sg > Stereo Generator > Input Adjustment menu, set the "Input Gain" control as
appropriate for your input source and processing needs.
By default this control is set to +12.5dB as it is presumed Omnia.9sg will normally be fed from an Omnia.9
(or Omnia.7) using the "FM Pre-final L/R" patchpoint output which has been attenuated by the same
amount to provide adequate headroom.
When set at the default level, this will exactly emulate the sound and behavior of a standalone Omnia.9
using its composite outputs. Accordingly any adjustments to the Omnia.9's "Final Clip Drive" control will
yield identical results. This also holds true if you you are feeding Omnia.9sg from another processor with
a similar "post-limiter, pre-clipper, pre-emphasis" patchpoint providing it applies the same pre-attenuation.
