Orban Optimod-AM 9400 Digital AM soundprocessor

The only processing common to the two channels is the AGC and stereo enhancer. Beyond this front-end processing, you get two of everything: equalizer, five-band compressor/limiter, and peak limiter, each optimized for its intended transmission channel. For example, the analog-chain peak limiter uses Orban’s exclusive multiband distortion-canceled clipper and overshoot compensator, while the digital chain uses an advanced, low-IM look-ahead limiter to make the most of low bitrate codecs. Moreover, both processing chains are stereo, making the 9400 ideal for CQUAM® installations. This is truly one AM processor that does it all.

• rides gain over an adjustable range of up to 25dB
• increases the density and loudness of the program material
• precisely controls peak levels to prevent overmodulation
• compensates for the high- and low-frequency rolloffs of typical AM receivers with a fully adjustable program equalizer 
• stereo processor that fully protects CQUAM® transmissions
• supports the iBiquity HD-AM® system
