Omnia Releases Toolvox Digital Mic Processor

“All-in-one” Microphone Processing Solution Now Shipping

19 February 2000, Paris, France

Omnia ToolVox, the highly anticipated all-in-one digital microphone processor from Cutting Edge, is now shipping to dealers worldwide, say company spokespeople.

“We think people will be amazed when they find out just how much this one little unit can really do,” says Cutting Edge president Frank Foti. “Many radio stations use three or more boxes on a single microphone just to get the sound they want. ToolVox does away with that by integrating all of the essential mic processing functions in a single device… and adding a few more goodies besides!”

Omnia ToolVox is the first digital microphone processor that unleashes the full power of DSP (digital signal processing) by combining the most-used microphone processing tools into a single, integrated unit. Compression, limiting, parametric EQ, shelf and bandpass filters are joined with essential tools such as TrueVerb reverb from Waves, multi-level phase rotation, and a revolutionary new de-esser which uses FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) technology to remove unwanted sibilance. Also included are a high-performance mic preamp with up to 70dB of gain, and built-in phantom power.

Designed to allow each voice talent to have his or her own user setting, ToolVox allows front panel access to up to 100 stored presets. Security features prevent tampering with processing functions, which are adjusted remotely via the built-in Ethernet or RS-232 ports. This LAN/WAN accessibility also permits presets to be shared by networked ToolVox units, so that talent can use their personal setting anywhere in the broadcast facility – or take it with them to other facilities.
