Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Omni I/O Integrated Desktop Audio
Station, designed and manufactured by M Audio. The Omni I/O is a “front
end” companion to the Delta 66 or Delta 44 by M Audio, offering you truly
professional options for both recording to and monitoring from your Delta Series
audio card.
Please read this manual to familiarize yourself with the Omni I/O and its
features, and to understand how you can make the versatility of the Omni I/O
work best for you. Before connecting the Omni I/O, you must install your Delta
44 or Delta 66 card, carefully following the procedure found in the manual for
your Delta card.
1. Theory of Operation
Arecording console performs two functions. It routes the signal you are about
to record, providing the ability to pre-amplify and shape that signal before it gets
to the recording device. At the same time, it handles all playback, allowing you
to mix, add an effect, and monitor your recorded signal as well as “virtual” MIDI
keyboard tracks.
The Omni I/O performs these tasks. The Omni, in conjunction with a Delta 44 or
Delta 66 PCI Interface and your PC or Macintosh computer, adds the
functionality of a recording console in a desktop unit. The Omni I/O is modeled
after what is known as a “split console” design, where the recording and
monitoring sections function independently.
Two high quality M Audio Mic/Instrument pre-amps are routed to the Delta’s
analog inputs 1 & 2. The level that you record is controlled by the Omni pre-
amp’s independent gain controls in conjunction with the +4/-10 operating level
that you select in the Delta Control Panel. An insert jack added to the record
path allows you to process the signal with outboard gear, should you choose to.
Line inputs 3 & 4 give you a total of 4 direct analog inputs to the Delta card from
the Omni.
You’ll use your music software and the Delta Control Panel to make routing
selections for recording and monitoring your audio tracks. Audio tracks are
routed from the Delta card to a mixer that is built-in to the Omni, which
combines the four Delta analog outputs with four auxiliary stereo inputs and
one stereo effects return for the equivalent of a 14 channel mixer. One effect send
is provided on each of the Delta output’s mixer channels. The aux inputs can be
used to monitor MIDI instruments as “virtual” tracks, and then route those
instruments to the line inputs for easy recording without repatching.
This ultra-quiet Omni mixer, with extremely wide frequency response, gives you

- Below for your convenience we ve created a chart describing what source you should select within your music software for your respective omni inputs next you ll want to set up the way you monitor the signals you are recording then set up the gain structure for your recording levels 19
- Having read the basic recording setup in section 7 of this manual you understand that omni mic instr channel 1 is connected to the delta h w hardware in1 omni mic instr channel 2 is connected to the delta h w hardware in 2 and omni line ins 3 4 are connected to delta h w ins 3 4 respectively this is the omni recording section and these are the record channels 19
- Recording audio to the delta 44 or 66 19
- Recording software will vary but once you ve set up your levels recording them is fairly basic recording is also covered extensively in your delta manual and there should also be a tutorial in your software s manual 19
- Take some time to read the delta manual that came with your delta card recording audio tracks requires a proper record setup but setup for monitoring those signals while recording is equally important 19
- With the gain controls on the omni turned down plug a microphone or an instrument such as electric or acoustic guitar into mic instr channel 1 and or channel 2 or plug a line level device such as a cd player or additional mic instrument pre amps into line ins 3 4 19
