Omnia VOLT installs quickly, with setup and convenience features for today’s broadcaster:
♦ VOLT includes a built-in HTML-5 server for full control from any computer, tablet, or
smartphone… it doesn’t need Java or special plug-ins, so there’s no worry about those
vulnerabilities.
♦ Totally flexible signal path. You can choose analog, AES/EBU digital, or Livewire inputs;
choose which channel to use for mono inputs; use analog, AES/EBU digital, Livewire, or
composite outputs… or all the outputs at the same time. There are separate volume and
channel balance trims, and flexible “flip-phase options”, on each input. You can save and
recall custom input/output setups for different applications.
♦ Switchable insert points lets you optimize Voltair, watermark encoders, and other
downstream encoding. You can feed encoders with a pre-processed signal from VOLT’s
multiband AGC and limiters. That way, your encoder sees a stronger, more reliable signal.
Then feed the encoder’s output back into VOLT, for post-encoding clipping that protects
you against over-modulation.
♦ Automatic “failover” signal switching. You can specify a backup input for use if your main
signal drops out. VOLT can switch to this source automatically, with adjustable sensitivity,
or you can trigger the changeover via contact closure or Livewire GPIO as needed.
♦ Rugged one-rack-unit construction fits any control room, technical center, or transmitter
shack, with easy-to-see LED meters.
♦ Fanless operation. Feel free to use VOLT near critical monitoring or live mics.
♦ Built-in tone generator. It lets you verify meter readings and signal path quickly.
In addition, VOLT’s FM Stereo DSP|Core includes a high-quality stereo generator with:
♦ Flexible Pre-Emphasis Switching on audio inputs and outputs. This makes it easy to fit
VOLT into any existing airchain.
♦ Dual Variable Composite Outputs to feed a main and backup transmitter.
♦ Variable Pilot Level and Phase let you adjust the signal for transmission.
♦ Adjustable SCA input for additional services including RDS, reading for the blind, and
specialty networks. 19 kHz sync output to synchronize external generators.
♦ BS-412 and Low Latency settings that can be turned on as needed.
VOLT’s AM DSP|Core includes:
♦ Extra equalization to control or enhance highs in two critical places, both before and after
the multiband limiter.
♦ Wide and Narrow bandwidth options to let you get the best combination of coverage and
quality for your station’s format.
♦ Adjustable Tilt to compensate for low-frequency ‘droop’ in older plate-modulated trans-
mitters.
