I have a 24AI from MOTU which has AVB built in and it can run long runs with a built in latency of 2ms. The routing from MOTU is a bit confusing but you can save as a preset when your done and recall it.On another note companies like presonus include it on their digital mixers and long runs to and from the stage are a simple Cat5 cable.
on linux i work almost the same but inside the programs on the pc, there are some protocols for work over network but i idint used, there are some that works even with friends on other city. i think its a game change about digital snakes with losses quality on distances. its there a little latency but the future would be so. thats a better option than have a tons of cables and hardware conected.
I've been trying to use Cubase as my main daw, but with the limitation of not being able to share I/Os to record and external efx, this solved the problem, I can create virtual channels using the same hardware I/Os and use my patchbay, finally I will quit Logic. thank you Warren
This is similar to the way I was able to access and use my old HP Win ME computer with dual sound cards and Jaws for windows with lots of inputs and outputs. Man it had good sound software. The Gateway had a lot of inputs and outputs as well, and Jaws was good with that too, but the sound while adequate was not as good as that ME sound drivers and software. Maybe it was DFX. I need to check it out again, and give it a new cmos. I like the clarity of this software. I liked being able to keep track of what all was hooked up where!
Pc users! RME Audio interfaces include a mature digital mixer router backed into their hardware. I can create any routing including loopback, pans, channel groups, etc just as any external mixing board would do and then some. I am not affiliated with RME audio in any way!
So now Mac users can do some of the things, that Linux users are used to for decades with Jack audio server, or several years with the newer Pipewire system. Somehow I'm not particularly overwhelmed. I really thought, that this functionality would come out of the box with MacOS. Surprised, that Linux seems to have been the better media OS for decades now. I was aware, that Windows was way behind, but didn't expect this from MacOS. I haven't tried yet, but I see documentation, that AVB is also available on Linux as an ALSA driver. Jack, or Pipewire will just see yet another audio interface. Though for Audio Networking in a LAN, NetJack2 looks like the more efficient protocol to me, and for low latency over long range WAN connections JackTrip fits the bill best.
@@Producelikeapro Gave it a whirl to route my Quad Cortex 3/4 > Apollo Virtual 3/4 and that's very simple to set up. Just the latency seems to be an issue even setting Omnibus buffer size to 64. I don't know whether that is due to the QC USB or whether it is an Omnibus issue but I can use the QC in Luna and Logic with no problem for tracking.
Different use cases. If you need to go to the analogue domain Flock makes sense, but this (OB3) is aimed more at moving digital audio around, so you skip the DA/DA conversion process at each step and go digital to digital. I have a number of Flock units. Considering this, but struggling to know how many OB3s I need to buy. As there's no info anywhere to confirm if I can install it with 1 license on multiple machines or if I need a license per Mac client. I want to connect 3 Macs in same studio. OB3 seems a good option, but I'm also considering MADI too.
this looks awesome i will buy if i can use it to route my daw ( Logic ) audio and midi to OBS and then be able to stream it on youtube and over streaming sites with the microphone routing my audio through OBS too though a scarlet focusrite interface really hoping this omnisbus will do this been wanting to stream music live through daw for years and be able to talk through a mic at the same time let me know enjoyed the vid thank you
unfortunately nope..but...i'm using omnibus 3 for atmos and calibration with Kushvew Element software (free)...it's a plugin host , so i open my sonarworks in element receiving 12 channel audio from omnibus to Element, than in Element i send output to my interface and speaker...i also do bass management in Element because i can add plugin and route audio as well.. In omnibus i create a few snapshot that full 7.1.4 out, LCR out. Sides out, Rear Out, Top OUt so i can auditioning speaker part by recalling snapshot
@@fredrikmixer both combine make an awesome setup…if using sonarworks as room calibration, then we can set and forget and enjoy calibrated atmos setup all the time without bothering to bypass sonarworks while bounce project ..
Good to know that there is another company doing what Audinate did with their Dante system 20 years ago (2003). Maybe Omnibus becomes an alternative. As far as I know Dante to this day is the industry standart and is not as expensive as you may think (in fact cheaper as Omnibus) ;-)
Dante is a completely different story. I use Dante inflationary but for multitrack recording or similar tasks. this is about internal routing of all physical and virtual in and outs. including software playback and this is exactly where Dante has no access because of the IPV4 protocol
@@curtis_chip No. Dante can route audio from apps to apps as well. No only physically from one machine to another but INTERNALLY. As you mentioned above. It has nothing to do with IPV4!? What does this has to do with Dante's protocol!? It is just a cat cabel but not using an internet protocol. You use Dante?? I really don't believe you do. Look for "Dante Via" that is the software to route apps for example.
@@curtis_chip Someone is messing up the comment section here. There is no real chat history anymore. So to keep it short: You can use Dante Via to route audio between apps and devices. This is not new as I said above. In fact back in the days we used different tools, open source most of the time, to route audio on WinPCs. For example if you use multiple soundcards. Or if you work in Cubase and want to pre-listen to some samples on the winamp and didn't wanted to shut down Cubase for that purpose. Well, this is yeeeaars ago, now things changed, Cubase changed. But internal audio routing is pretty common since the early days of making music on a computer.
AVB has always been an option on Macs, but an app to simplify the process is quite welcome … but $199 seems a bit steep. I mean, that’s what I paid for Logic.
How does this compare to Dante Via? Dante Network Latency is only 250microsecs. Can the Omnibus 2ms latency be compansated automatically in the recording DAW?
Yea, it looks like Windows looses again! I never understood why Microsoft never cared about audio! They broke Thunderbolt also! Windows 11 is the death of Microsoft! If I was younger, I would move to Apple in a second, but it is not worth rebuying everything!

This is amazing!!!
Marvellous!
I just barely wrapped my head around the UAD Console but I get how useful this could be.
Haha I hear you! Always new things to learn!

an alternative is "Loopback".
works according to the same principle
I have both, Loopback is quite limited in many aspects and adds more latency. It's handy...but this omnibus is another level.
Seems cool, wish I had a use for it :)
Thanks for sharing
Looks okay. Might try.
Marvellous!
how could I replace my patchbay with that? It can´t connect analog signals, or am I missing something? cheers :)
Unfortunately no! It's digital only, not an analog solution
@@Producelikeapro ah I saw that you changed the video description, right? :) cheerio!!
Tip: when it sounds like he says, “I go into brothels,” he’s saying “I go into ProTools”! 😂
Haha what if we didn't hear that way? What does that mean?
Would you opt for this or a flock Audio patchbay?
The Flock is great! It takes analog signals and allows you to control the patching digitally. This is all digital only
Different use cases. If you need to go to the analogue domain Flock makes sense, but this (OB3) is aimed more at moving digital audio around, so you skip the DA/DA conversion process at each step and go digital to digital.

this looks awesome
i will buy if i can use it to route my daw ( Logic ) audio and midi to OBS
and then be able to stream it on youtube and over streaming sites
with the microphone routing my audio through OBS too though a scarlet focusrite interface
really hoping this omnisbus will do this
been wanting to stream music live through daw for years
and be able to talk through a mic at the same time
let me know enjoyed the vid thank you
How would you, go about connecting outboard gear
That's an analog issue, do you have a patchy?
Can you put in delays and eq to the output? I’m thinking that it would make any device useful for Dolby Atmos.

Not really. This is exactly like the Dante Controller. Existing for years... ;-)
@@Mitsch76 I knew that there was NO Windows support! I was just bringing up the fact that there a couple of companies that do at least try!😁
Do it for windows

No greater than 2ms.
