Omnia FORZA
Omnia Forza breathes new life into the traditional five-band processor design, featuring all-new AGCs and multiband limiters that yield a consistent and polished audio signature without sounding overly processed.
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 and offers all the advantages of virtualization.
From a usability standpoint, expertly crafted “launch point” presets and an intuitive yet powerful user interface empowers users of all skill levels and ensures instant sonic excellence for listeners. Central to Forza’s UI is the use of “smart controls” that seamlessly maintain harmony between “under the hood” controls and settings. Anyone can confidently drive Forza without a PhD in processing, while professionals will love its powerful simplicity in crafting their unique signature sound. An integrated, target-driven ITU-R BS.1770 loudness controller makes conforming to emerging loudness requirements a set-and-forget process.
