* THIS ITEM IS B STOCK USED IN DEMO, IT COMES WITH ALL PARTS AND DOCUMENTS, NO BOX BUT FULL WARRANTY*
The Lexicon Omega USB Sound Card is highly recommended by Inta Audio. Lexicon has taken a whole-system approach to desktop recording. Omega Studio is an integrated computer recording system that includes the Omega 8x4x2 USB I/O mixer, Cubase LE 48-Track recording software for Win XP / Mac OSX, Bias Deck 3.5 SE for Mac and the world-class Lexicon Pantheon reverb plug-in. Omega Studio contains all of the components necessary to transform your computer into a professional 24-bit recording studio. Whether you are a guitarist, keyboard player, vocalist, instrumentalist or an audio engineer, Omega Studio provides all the I/O mixing, recording and effects you need to make your next project sound like it came from a professional studio.
Omega Studio Hardware
Differentiating itself from standard computer I/O boxes which are typically based on a patch-bay paradigm, the Omega 8x4x2 USB I/O mixer is based on a mixer paradigm and includes input, output and mixing functions that support a variety of tracking/monitoring applications while requiring no additional mixing hardware.
The Omega I/O mixer provides 8 inputs which are assignable in pairs to any of 4 simultaneous record channels featuring ultra-transparent, high-resolution analog to digital converters to capture your performance with pristine 24-bit quality. Two of the inputs feature extremely low-noise dbx® mic-preamps with 48 volt phantom power and TRS insert points. Four TRS active balanced line inputs accept up to +22dBu signals to allow interfacing to either unbalanced or professional high-output level balanced equipment. Included is an S/PDIF input combined with an additional DAC for zero-latency, direct monitoring of the S/PDIF source to allow simultaneous tracking of analog and digital sources. A high-impedance instrument input is conveniently accessible on the front panel. The Omega I/O mixer provides a peak indicator for each analog input as well as an assignable bar graph meter for signal level monitoring. By monitoring the signal at the A/D converters, it avoids the problems with software-only level monitoring that can miss clipping and ruin your track. The Omega I/O mixer also includes a fully opto-isolated MIDI input to ensure 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.
