Omnia Audio Omnia.11 - Manual (Page 52)

Where to Begin?
We strongly suggest removing or bypassing any other audio processors in the air chain ahead of Omnia.11.
If you are using a front-end AGC such as the Compellor ahead of your STL, use it only for overload protection
and not with any AGC activity. These additional AGC devices can conflict with or reduce the effectiveness of the
Omnia.11’s new highly effective Wideband AGC.
Once your Omnia.11 is properly installed and passing audio at the proper levels, it is time to select a preset!
Presets
Omnia.11 is equipped with a selection of factory presets that can be used to instantly configure the processing for
common applications. The currently loaded preset is displayed in the Status Bar, just above the Limiters icon
button.

Some of the presets have format-based names. Do not take these names too literally! It is entirely possible that you
may like a preset named “Country_Open” (or like it enough to use it as a starting point) for your Smooth Jazz
station.
The best way to begin is to actually try all of the factory presets, accessible from the Preset tab in the Menu Area of
any ADJ mode screen (except Input or Output). Adjust the controls in the Quick Setup tab for each one as
described below. After making these basic adjustments for each preset tried, you should be able to settle on one
preset and save it with your changes as a user preset. Once saved, you can simply use it as-is or use it as a starting
point for further customization (if needed).
10 user presets are shown per screen so use the PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN buttons to see more available presets.
They are arranged in alphabetical order in 2 groups. The factory presets are listed first followed by user presets.
Important Note: When changing between the various presets, allow some time for the newly loaded preset to
“settle-in” since there may be some large parameter changes happening depending on the previously selected preset.
You can find a list of all the factory presets, with a short description for each, starting on Page 38.
To instantly put a preset on the air, unlock the preset list by touching the “padlock” icon in the upper-left corner of
the list and then simply touch the desired preset’s name in the Preset list.
