Meet Forza, the latest family of Omnia processors for FM, HD, DAB, and streaming audio.
Omnia Forza breathes new life into the traditional five-band processor design, featuring all-new AGCs and multiband limiters. As a software processor, Forza is delivered via a Docker container that can be hosted on-premises on a COTS (commercial off-the-shelf) server or cloud-hosted.
The use of expertly crafted launch point presets and an intuitive yet powerful user interface based on “smart controls” that seamlessly maintain harmony between under-the-hood controls and settings means anyone can drive Forza with confidence, and ensure instant sonic excellence for listeners. More advanced users will find the tools they need to craft their unique signature sound.
Forza HDS is specifically designed for L/R audio applications, including HD, DAB, and streaming audio. Its integrated, target-driven ITU-R BS.1770 loudness controller makes conforming to emerging streaming loudness requirements a set-and-forget process. For those wanting the benefits of a virtualized software processor but with the simplicity of pre-configured hardware, up to two instances of Forza FM with µMPX or up to four instances of Forza HDS processing can be pre-installed on the Telos Alliance AP-3000 platform.
Forza FM is optimized for FM applications, and includes the Frank Foti-designed Silvio clipper from Omnia.11 to deliver the powerful on-air sound users have come to expect from Omnia processors. It includes processing for HD-1/DAB.
