AES/EBU Digital Input, Outputs & AES/EBU External Sync Input
The digital AES/EBU (AES-3) inputs (AES INPUT and AES SYNC IN) use standard balanced 3-pin female XLR
connectors. 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.
There are two AES-3 outputs on standard balanced 3-pin male XLR connectors. These provide either an internally
generated output sample rate of 48 kHz or the sample rate can be locked to an external AES/EBU signal applied to
the AES SYNC IN connector or to the AES/EBU input signal. These options are selectable using the “Sample
Rate” setting in the AES/EBU submenu of the Output menu.
Note: The analog and digital outputs are active simultaneously.
Ethernet / Livewire Connections
The top RJ-45 10BaseT / 100BaseT Ethernet / Livewire I/O jack can be used simultaneously for both TCP/IP based
remote control of your Omnia.11 and audio input/output to your existing Livewire network.
IMPORTANT: If you do not have a Livewire network, please ensure that Livewire is disabled in the Setup menu /
Livewire screen. If a change was needed, be sure to touch “APPLY” and reboot the unit for the change to take
effect. This must be done since your regular network likely cannot handle the large bandwidth and packet streams
generated by Livewire.
NOTE: The bottom Ethernet jack is not fully implemented in the current software so it has the same
functionality as the top jack. We suggest using only the top jack.
