SPECIFICATIONS
ORBAN MODEL 1101
Multiband Compressors:
–24dB gain range, Five-Band and Two-Band, selectable by
mute-free crossfade.
Limiter:
–12dB gain range, Look-ahead IM distortion reduced, competitive with the best
dedicated mastering limiters, achieving high loudness with a remarkable lack of side-
effects.
Loudness Controller:
Constrains subjective loudness to a user-adjustable threshold via
the 1981 Jones & Torick CBS Technology Center algorithm, as further refined and de-
veloped by Orban. The algorithm also drives a subjective loudness meter, which is dis-
played on the 1101’s GUI. In dual-mono mode, there are two independent loudness con-
trollers and meters.
Number of Factory Presets:
More than 20, each with 19-step LESS-MORE control. Pre-
sets are fully customizable with FULL CONTROL. In addition to presets for full process-
ing, there are also “AGC” and “Look-ahead Limiter” presets.
Number of User Presets:
Essentially unlimited. User presets can be saved on the host
hard drive or on other storage devices.

Driver:
Multiclient Driver allows 1101 to appear as two standard sound devices to the com-
puter operating system. The input can therefore be received from multiple software ap-
plications running on the host computer system by use of standard operating system
sound device driver calls. For example, this could include single or multiple player ap-
plications, such as an audio playout system with multiple players, content insertion sys-
tem, or audio over IP routed into the host computer through an Ethernet port, and/or
multiple streaming audio encoders. Because the driver is multiclient, it allows it to
source multiple applications simultaneously. A versatile mixer and router application al-
lows you to mix digital, analog, and wave inputs to three busses (one with OPTIMOD-PC
processing and two without) and to route the outputs of the “Processed” and “Direct”
busses to the Analog, Digital, and Wave Outputs in any configuration or combination,
such that any output can receive any bus or the unprocessed Wave Input. Content in-
sertion systems that would normally require two sound devices can be configured to
work with one 1101 OPTIMOD-PC, requiring only one PCI or PCIe slot per program
source.
Sample Rate:
8 - 96 kHz. Asynchronously Sample Rate Converted by Driver
Sync:
Internal free running or External. Either AES/EBU, Word Clock, or 10MHz input can
be used as source for external sync.
Wave data will be clocked to software configurable Internal or External sources.
Input Level:
Variable within the range of -20 to 0dBFS (Peak) in 0.5dB steps.
Software adjustable via OPTIMOD-PC Mixer Application and Windows Mixer API
