baseband signal up to 53kHz, except for the 19kHz pilot. No matter how hard you drive
the composite clipper, you cannot clip the stereo pilot. Embedded within the composite
clipper is a 53Khz phase linear low pass filter for SCA protection. This filter removes
clipping harmonics and prevents them from affecting the SCA and RDS region.

Input/Output


This submenu provides level adjustments for the audio inputs and the absolute peak operating level of the Analog
XLR, Composite MPX (FM Style Only), AES-3 (AES/EBU) and Livewire outputs. Choices governing the selection
of the input audio source (Analog, AES Digital or Livewire) and signal mode (Stereo or Mono) are also found here.
There is also a setting to disable Livewire if needed.

These I/O settings are generally “set once and forget” parameters, usually adjusted during initial installation and
then left alone. These I/O settings are not saved with a processing preset but can be saved, loaded, deleted or
renamed as “I/O Configurations” using options available in this submenu.

Mtr Select (Meter Select)

Selects whether the Input levels, Analog Out (analog output) levels, AES Out (AES/EBU
output) levels or LW Out (Livewire output) levels are displayed on the front panel L & R (Left &
Right channel) LED bargraph meters.


Input

There are eleven controls under the heading “Input” and each will be explained in the order in
which they appear in the menu:

Input Src (Input Source)

Allows the selection of Analog, AES/EBU (digital) or Livewire as the primary input
source to the Omnia.ONE.

Fover Time (Failover Time)

Failover Time is a feature that when set to a value other than zero (disabled) allows the
Omnia.ONE to automatically select another input source if the currently selected one
fails. Failover Time is the amount of time that will elapse after the failure of audio on the
primary input source before the unit makes the decision to switch to the secondary
(failover) input source. For instance, if Failover Time is set for 5 seconds and the primary
audio source fails, 5 seconds later the unit will switch to the secondary audio input if that
input is active. If, at any time, audio is restored on the primary input (for 1 second,
continuously), the unit will switch back to the primary audio input. It will remain with
the primary input unless another failure is detected.

Fover Src (Failover Source)

Failover Source selects which audio input: Analog, AES/EBU (digital) or Livewire will
serve as the secondary audio input. Note that the audio input that is selected under Input
