Mike Rogers, the contract engineer for KCCV-FM in the Kansas City market, recently made an important discovery.
"We have an FM talk station and were all set to go with one of your competitor's latest, top-of-the-line processors. Just for fun, I decided to try out the Omnia.ONE instead. Once I got done tweaking for our voice-dominant format, I was astonished that the Omnia.ONE kept right up with the far more expensive unit when it came to loudness, clarity and level management. I could honestly not justify spending the extra $6000+ for this installation, so we stayed with the Omnia.ONE. The folks at the Bott Radio Network, owners of KCCV-FM, were very pleased to put six grand back in their pockets!"
"This is one powerful little device, and I'm not even pushing it," concludes Mike.
Time and time again, we hear from people like Mike who are discovering the power and surprising performance of the Omnia.ONE. Utilizing the latest advances in DSP hardware and manufacturing techniques, the Omnia.ONE FM brings you a full five?band FM processor in a single rack space package. Omnia.ONE FM features the same processing topology that made the original Omnia FM famous, a Wide?band AGC / Leveler followed by a four?band AGC and separate (not integrated) four?band limiter section utilizing a shared precision crossover. Rounding out the processing is Omnia's advanced pre?emphasized final limiter / clipper -- the same that is used in the Omnia 5EX / 6EX. It is what really separates Omnia from the "copycat" competition.
There's also a newly designed digital stereo generator with SCA convenience input and 19kHz pilot output for synchronization to external RDS generators.
And don't forget Livewire capability. Omnia ONE connects directly to Axia Livewire digital audio networks, allowing input, output, and control to be consolidated on a single Ethernet connector for simplified setup and easy audio routing.
