OPTIMOD-FM DIGITAL INTRODUCTION
1-9
You can store as many User Presets (at least 100) as you have available memory. You
may enter in any name you wish, up to 18 characters. The only exception is that you
cannot name a User Preset the same as a Factory Preset, regardless of upper or lower
case. (For example, if a Factory Preset is called “Jazz,” you cannot have a User Preset
called “jazz” or “JAZZ.”)
User Presets cannot be created from scratch. You must always start by recalling a
Factory Preset. You can then immediately store this in a User Preset, name it as you
wish (within the constraints described above), and then make changes to the set-
tings. Alternatively, you can recall a Factory Preset, make the changes, and then
store this in a User Preset.
Either way, the Factory Preset remains for you to return to if you wish.
User Presets are stored in non-volatile memory that does not require battery backup.
Input/output Configuration
OPTIMOD-FM will simultaneously accommodate:
•
Digital AES3 left/right inputs.
•
Two Digital AES3 outputs, both of which can be switched independently to carry
the following signals: FM analog processed without diversity delay, FM analog
processed with diversity delay, digital radio processed, or low delay monitor.
•
Digital AES11 sync reference input.
•
Analog left/right inputs.
•
Analog left/right outputs, which can be switched independently to carry the fol-
lowing signals: FM analog processed without diversity delay, FM analog pro-
cessed with diversity delay, digital radio processed, or low delay monitor.
•
Composite stereo outputs.
•
Subcarrier (SCA and RDS/RBDS) input.
Digital AES3 Left/right Input/outputs
The digital input and outputs conform to the professional AES3 standard. They all
have sample rate converters to allow operation at 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2
kHz, and 96 kHz sample frequency. For best peak control, operate at 44.1 kHz or
higher.
The left/right digital input is on one XLR-type female connector on the rear panel;
the left/right digital outputs are on two XLR-type male connectors on the rear panel.
