OPERATION
ORBAN MODEL 8300
To Move Alias Folders:
Even though each version of 8300 PC Remote can see all aliases, you may wish to
move the corresponding folders so they are under the folder corresponding to the
highest version of 8300 PC Remote that is currently installed on your computer (al-
though this is not required). If your Alias folders reside in different locations, you
can move all the Alias folders to the same location by using the PC Remote software.
Do not use an external file manager to do this.
The old Alias folders need to be re-
created under the Optimod 8300 PC Remote software you wish to use (so that the
registry entries can be correctly updated). You can do this two different ways.
Rename the Alias
(preferred): Start the Optimod 8300 PC Remote executable
you wish to use and rename your old Aliases with a slightly different name. A
new Alias folder with the new name will be created in the same location as the
Optimod 8300 PC Remote executable.
Delete and Recreate the Alias:
Start the Optimod 8300 PC Remote executable
you wish to use. Delete the old 8300 Aliases and create new ones to replace
them. New Alias folders will be created in the same location as the Optimod
8300 PC Remote executable.
Important:
The deletion process will automatically erase its associated
folder, including the Backup directory. If you have anything in the
Backup directory that you wish to keep, you should therefore move that
directory elsewhere (or transfer the desired files to another, active
backup directory).
Ordinarily, the erasure process will move the Backup directory to your
computer’s Recycle Bin, so you can recover a Backup directory that you
have accidentally deleted in this way.
To Import Archived 8400 and 8500 Presets into Your 8300
See
To restore archived presets, system files, and automation files
on page 3-66 for
step by step instructions.
The 8300 shares some signal processing technology with Orban’s Optimod-FM 8400
and 8500. However, the 8300 has fewer features. Using 8300 PC Remote software,
you can import into the 8300 any 8400 and 8500 User Presets that you archived us-
ing the 8400 or 8500 PC Remote software. If you try to import an 8400/8500 preset
using 8400/8500 features that 8300 does not support, the 8300 will interpret the
preset as best it can using 8300 features:
The 8300’s stereo enhancer offers only “Orban 222-style” enhancement. There-
fore, the 8300 will always interpret the 8400
S
TYLE
parameter as set to
222.
It
will ignore the
D
IFFUSION
and
D
EPTH
parameters.
The 8300’s multiband compressor / limiter cannot be operated in dual-mono or
partially coupled mode. It is always fully stereo-coupled.
