Omega with Bluefin Released at NAB 2007
Calrec Audio unveils a brand new console at NAB 2007 with the launch of Omega.
Omega uses award-winning Bluefin High Density Signal Processing technology, and features 160 channel processing paths packaged as 48 stereo plus 64 mono channels, allowing up to 24 x full 5.1 surround channels.
"Omega is positioned between our Zeta and Sigma consoles, and provides considerable power in a very small frame,” says Sales and Marketing Director John Gluck.
“Conditions in key markets encouraged the design of Omega as a smaller console than Sigma but with the same buss structure and delay facilities that Bluefin provides. But it was clear that the demand for our Zeta desk remains high, and so it continues to be an important element of our product range.
“Omega with Bluefin is equipped with 160 mono DSP paths and in keeping with previous Bluefin implementations, all this power is managed on just one DSP card.
"The Omega provides greatly expanded monitoring options with full user configurability and features our unique TFT metering capabilities right across the upstand. Our hardware team have placed as much control onto the surface as possible and maintained the immediacy of our assignable system without compromising access.”
