INTRODUCTION
ORBAN MODEL 1100
its processing structures as a series of high-speed mathematical computations
made by Digital Signal Processing (DSP) chips.
•
OPTIMOD-PC features two processing structures:
Five-Band
(or Multiband) for a
consistent, “processed” sound, free from undesirable side effects and
Two-Band
for a tastefully controlled sound that preserves the frequency balance of the
original program material.
•
The Two-Band structure can also be tuned to operate as a
Protection Limiter
,
providing up to 25dB of safety limiting with minimal side effects.
•
OPTIMOD-PC
can increase
the density and loudness
of the program material
by multiband compression and look-ahead limiting, improving the consistency of
the station’s sound and increasing loudness and definition remarkably, without
producing unpleasant side effects.
•
OPTIMOD-PC
rides
gain
over an adjustable range of up to 25dB, compressing
dynamic range and compensating for operator gain-riding errors and for gain
inconsistencies in automated systems.
•
OPTIMOD-PC’s processing structures are all
phase-linear
to maximize audible
transparency.
•
OPTIMOD-PC can be changed from one processing structure to another with a
smooth cross-fade
.
•
Two-Band
automatic gain control
with window gating and selectable L/R or
sum/difference processing compensates for widely varying input levels.
•
Shelving
bass equalizer
and three-band
parametric
equalizer
let you color
the audio to your exact requirements.
•
Low-IM look-ahead limiter
effectively limits peaks while ensuring that low-
bit-rate codecs operate optimally without overload.
•
A pure peak limiting preset is available. It allows the 1100 to perform
very high
quality peak limiting in mastering applications
.
•
OPTIMOD-PC can be used as a
studio AGC
(including peak limiting) to protect a
studio-to-transmitter link (STL), optimally using the STL’s native dynamic range.
