The
Window
function
(also in the
Advanced
tab) provides a "dead band" area for the wideband AGC. If you set it
at -2 dB
for example
, you
're telling the wideband AGC
that if the
source material is within 2 dB of the
target level,
do nothing. This
will al
l
ow 2 dB
of natural
level variation in the audio, which
is nice for keeping the
Omnia.11
from over-
processing already dense material.
T
he lower you set the number (say, from
-2 dB to -6
dB),
the more variation in programming levels you're allowing
through...and the more "relaxed" the audio sounds.
See the Basic and Advanced tab sections below for more details.
Wide Band AGC Metering (Summary Tab)
Touch the
Wide Band
icon button to enter the metering and menu screens for the Wideband AGC.
The WB AGC meter indicates gain
-
reduction from the top down in d
B
. The Stereo Enhance meter indicates the
amount of activity in the stereo enhancer fro
m the bottom up.
Gating activity is indicated by a bright yellow outline (Gate Indicator) around the blue gain
-
reduction meter. The
gate indicator will
show more gating activity than you
may be
used to in conventional processors, but this is normal!
The Omnia.11’s “smart”
windowed gating algorithm will control levels over a wide 30dB+ range and can choose to
do nothing when appropriate as well as increasing or reducing gain.
