The
recording professionals at Lexicon Pro know a thing or two
about great audio - that famed Lexicon reverb "sound"
has been on just about every hit recording since we invented
digital reverb more than 30 years ago. So when we set out
to bring that sound home - we got truly inspired.
The Lexicon Omega Studio is a completely integrated computer
recording system that includes the Omega 8x4x2 USB I/O Mixer,
Steinberg's® Cubase LE audio and MIDI recording software,
and Lexicon's world-class Pantheon VST Reverb plug-in. The
Omega Desktop Recording Studio quite literally contains all
the necessary components to transform your computer into a
professional 24-bit recording studio - all in one box.

Unlike
standard computer I/O boxes based on a patch bay concept, the Lexicon
Omega Studio is designed and built around the same paradigm as large-format
recording consoles. An 8-input, 4-Bus, 2-output USB I/O mixer with
inserts, instrument input, MIDI I/O and complete metering and monitoring
functions gives you the freedom to record up to 4 tracks at once
and mix without the need for additional mixing hardware.
Two
dbx Silver Series® mic preamps with 48V phantom power provide
a pristine front end for high-end condenser or more common dynamic
microphones, insuring premium sound quality from the first take
to the last. TRS insert points allow you to plug in your favorite
dynamic processors before the signal reaches one of the 4 busses,
where 24-bit converters transform the analog signal into a digital
masterpiece.
Four
servo-balanced TRS line inputs with up to +22dBu input levels let
you hook up everything from keyboards to guitar preamps, including
high-output professional gear. Stereo digital inputs are available
via SPDIF jacks, and an additional high-impedance instrument input
is included on the front panel for easy access to guitars and basses.
Finally,
a fully opto-isolated MIDI input to ensures that there is no annoying
ground loop hum or MIDI talk-through noise common with many I/O
boxes and sound cards; MIDI output has rock-solid synchronization
to USB frame rate to support applications requiring critical sync.
The
Omega I/O mixer also features channel peak indicators for each analog
input as well as an assignable bargraph meter for the 4 busses.
By monitoring the signal before the A/D converters, clipping and
distortion can be averted, unlike software-only level monitoring
that can miss "overs", ruining the track.
All
these gazintas and getoutzas are put together just like a big recording
console, with input gain controls, four recording busses, and full
monitoring features, in one attractive, portable I/O Mixer. Just
plug it into your Mac or PC computer with the included USB cable,
and you're instantly ready to capture the moment.
