The Omega I/O mixer provides eight inputs that are assignablein pairs to any of four simultaneous record channels featuringultratransparent, high-resolution analog-to-digital converters. Two ofthe inputs feature extremely low-noise dbx mic preamps with 48-voltphantom power and TRS insert points. Four TRS active balanced lineinputs accept up to +22dBu signals to allow interfacing to eitherunbalanced or professional high-output level balanced equipment.Included is an S/PDIF input combined with an additional DAC for zerolatency, and direct monitoring of the S/PDIF source to allowsimultaneous tracking of analog and digital sources. A high-impedanceinstrument input is accessible on the front panel.
