up all of the available capacity, leaving nothing for web surfing or companion video content.
The perceived quality of audio that undergoes this compression is very much improved

potential customer who has had a demonstration prefers the sound of processed audio.
Omnia A/XE is a stand-alone software signal processor and MPEG encoder (MP3 and
AAC). It does not require a dedicated PC hardware card to operate as it utilizes the host
processor inside the computer. Omnia A/XE was designed as a Windows service for 24/7
Internet streaming. The dynamics processing algorithms are based upon the highly success-
ful Omnia.3net, which is a hardware-based DSP audio processor.
Omnia A/XE performs internal calculations with precision sufficient to guarantee 24-bit
dynamic range. Omnia A/XE employs the following processing architecture:
♦
Wideband AGC
♦
3 Band Combined Compressor/Limiter
♦
HF EQ
♦
Adjustable Bandwidth Lowpass Filter
♦
Final Look-Ahead Limiter
