Lexicon Omega & iPad
Lexicon has announced the Omega Desktop Recording Interface‘s capability for digital streaming and recording to Apple’s iPad. Lexicon’s Omega allows musicians to record directly with any audio recording app, including the newly released GarageBand. The high-quality audio streaming capability of Omega allows musicians who record at home and on the go take further advantage of the increasing number of recording applications for musicians available from the Apple App Store. The Omega contains all the necessary components to transform an iPad into a professional 24-bit recording studio. For the first time, you can record, edit, mix and publish high quality audio on the go. The Lexicon Omega streams 24-bit audio at 44.1 kHz sample rate to an iPad over the USB connection. This ensures the highest quality audio for recording and playback. When you use the Lexicon Omega to stream music over USB you don’t experience pops and feedback like those experienced when using other devices to stream an instrument through the headphone jack. Simply connect your Omega to your iPad with a USB cable and USB host adaptor (like the Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit). Plug in your instrument, microphone – or both, and launch your favorite music app to begin streaming.
