At the 2024 NAMM Show in Anaheim, Audiomovers announced OMNIBUS 3.0, the latest version of its audio routing software that adds networking capability and flexibility as well as an upgraded user interface.
The software — designed to operate like a virtual patchbay for Mac — now offers support for NDI and AVB network protocols. The new networking functionality means OMNIBUS 3.0 can communicate with nearby Omnibus instances running on other machines via one of the networking protocols, simplifying wireless routing between devices and machines.
OMNIBUS also now has a more flexible virtual device channel count. Each OMNIBUS virtual device can have anything from two to 256 channels, depending on preference and use case. Engineers can also add only the audio devices they wish to route visible in the interface, adding and removing any audio device, from both the list and the routing matrix.
And, the softare will now allow engineers to capture audio from specific applications (as well as audio devices), regardless of their audio device output routing, and route the audio as required, so engineers can route application audio separately or combine audio sources.
OMNIBUS 3.0 will be available for purchase in Q2 2024, with upgrade options for existing OMNIBUS 2.0 owners.
