.Multicast x3 Sensus ® Technology: Audio Processing Overview Until now, digital signal processing has been a more precise numeric implementation of well-known analog methods. Even relatively recently designed digital audio processors couldn’t veer too far from the comparatively simplistic concepts that analog dynamics processing had utilized… until now! Extremely high power DSP chips have become available and at relatively low cost, and they make it possible to build smarter

and bandwidth limiting methods that were required for analog broadcasting, as well as for the signal normalization techniques used in recording and mastering. Audio codecs on the other hand are moving targets - each codec algorithm has its own set of artifacts. So not only does the sonic quality vary depending on the algorithm and bitrate used, but more importantly they vary in their ability to mask their own coding action. This is why we call it a ‘moving target’, and is why conventiona

So… what’s so smart about Sensus ®? The fact is, Sensus ® is smart. In real time it predicts program content that will be troublesome for the codec, and by modifying it’s own algorithms can make appropriate changes to the program 1 material before it ever reaches the codec! The result is consistently high audio quality through a codec-based system, even at very low (18kbps – 21kbps) bitrates. The human voice is very difficult to code at low bitrates without quality and intelligibility

Installation & Connections Throughout this section reference is made to “software parameters.” These are part of the User Interface, which is covered in detail in Chapter 2. Rack Mounting The OmniaONE requires one RU (1.75" [44.45 mm]) of rack space. Rack mount the unit using four rack screws. If only two screws are going to be used, they should be in the bottom holes in the Omnia front panel. No other two- screw mounting arrangement will prevent distortion of the front panel! Ade

AES/EBU Digital Input, AES/EBU External Sync Input, and AES/EBU Output The digital AES/EBU (AES-3) inputs (IN and EXT. SYNC) use industry-familiar RJ-45 connectors and utilize the 1 StudioHUB+ wiring standard . They accept any sampling rate between 32kHz and 96kHz. No user adjustment of the sample rate is necessary on the AES-3 input as a high-quality digital sample rate converter is built in. Individual channel gain and level setting for both analog and digital domains is done using the I
