These additions are substantial, as they expand the 9s's utility beyond FM and streaming. The inclusion of a dedicated AM processing core and the ability to send Linear MPX over Livewire is a major enhancement for the AM broadcasters who are part of large, multi-platform media groups. Similarly, NMOS support signifies a deep commitment to IP-based studio operations, allowing the 9s to be automatically discovered and configured within a network—a key requirement for large-scale, modern AoIP deployments. MQQT support provides a lightweight, efficient mechanism for telemetry and control, while host clock support offers greater flexibility in how the system synchronizes, particularly in non-AES67 environments.
If you're considering adopting this technology, I can help you: it against traditional hardware processors.
For version and similar builds, follow these standard procedures:
This software-only platform brings the legendary audio quality of the Omnia.9 hardware processor into a scalable, virtualized environment. Designed for radio broadcasters who need to manage numerous channels—such as FM, HD Radio, DAB, and streaming—the Omnia Enterprise 9s enables centralized, high-density processing on standard Windows servers.
Tell me what the "3.32" feature actually does under the hood, and I will translate it into business-value speak (e.g., "This update reduces latency by X, saving the company Y hours").
Features include a 6-band parametric EQ , "Undo" technology to restore dynamic range, multiband downward expanders for noise reduction, and advanced clippers for a clean yet loud signal.
Rob Scholtes, Managing Technician at FunX, noted that "the sound is better than with the 8200 in combination with the O9sg. Especially the low has become better and the high also keeps up". FunX runs the Omnia Enterprise 9s on a dedicated on‑premise broadcast computer optimized for 24/7/365 usage. The installation was remarkably quick: "It contained connecting the broadcast computer, a few clicks to activate the software and we were online".
Licensing is managed through Telos Alliance’s Key 9 licensing system. The number of stations is set in the Base Configuration Settings by dragging the "Number of Stations" slider, up to the total number of stations for which you are licensed. A single server supports up to 64 stations, requiring proper licensing and adequate CPU cores and RAM. Each station includes its own FM processing core (with RDS and µMPX outputs), AM processing core, and stereo L/R processing core for HD/DAB/streaming.
Includes a software MPX encoder that allows for centralized processing where the stereo and RDS encoding are done at the "head end" and distributed via IP.
