Clipper
♦
The Final Clip Drive control sets the drive of the final clipper. Decreasing the drive (moving the slider to the left)
reduces the amount of clipping. Conversely, increasing the drive (moving the slider to the right) will result in more
clipping. Less clipping will result in a more open, less-processed, cleaner sound, but at the expense of overall loudness.
More clipping can result in a louder on-air sound – but only up to a point. Even if total dial domination and loudness
are your processing goals, there comes a point when the final wave-form is completely full, and increasing the amount
of clipping will no longer yield additional loudness – only more distortion. We strongly recommend using Omnia.9’s
oscilloscope as well as your ears to monitor the MPX Output signal while adjusting the final clip drive. This control
ranges from -6.0 to +6.0 in one-quarter dB increments, which should give you the (correct) impression that small
changes make a big difference in the sound. Keep in mind that a setting of +0.00 means the control is at the middle of its
range, but does not necessarily mean that no clipping is taking place.
♦
The Bass Clipper Slope control determines the slope characteristics of the bass clipper.
♦
Slope 1 is filtered at a very low frequency so that the low bass stays “clean” even when clipped hard. However, some of the
mid-bass will pass through the clipper, which may result in more of the final waveform being taken up by the bass. For
lighter processing settings, Slope 1 offers the cleanest and punchiest bass sound.
