No license or ongoing payment to Orban is required to operate this card. You just download the driver from the Orban site and that's all you need to get the legendary Orban sound. No XLR breakout cables are included. The card has been tested for correct operation using Windows 10 64 Bit on a fairly old machine. \u003cb\u003eWindows 11 has not been tested and is not guaranteed.\u003c\/b\u003e Under Windows 10 I can't guarantee that the driver is compatible with state-of-the-art hardware such as would have been designed for use with Windows 11, instead I recommend that you operate this in a PC that's similar in age to the card and the driver code if you want the smoothest install. I tested the card under the driver software available at the Orban FTP site. A screenshot taken during the testing of your card will be included in the package for your peace of mind. No documents, cables or accessories are included, the cable set may be purchased on line from Orban dealers for about $200 if required. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrban Optimod-PC 1101 Main Features \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDramatically improve audio consistency dynamically with that world-renowned Optimod sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMost universal professional audio card with features not found anywhere else\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrevents the top listener complaints: loudness variation and program inconsistency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNow two sound cards in one, for professional content\/commercial insertion systems, and watermark encoding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDedicated onboard DSP saves host computer CPU cycles for more streaming encoders and ensures against audio gaps or dropouts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNetwork control of audio routing, mixing, and processing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCBS Loudness Controller controls subjective loudness to ATSC A\/85:2011 and EBU R 128 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFull details may be obtained from the User Manual at:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/image.prostudioconnection.net\/2507\/Orban_PC1101_Manual_qr-code.png\" alt=\"https:\/\/www.prostudioconnection.net\/2507\/Orban_PC1101_Manual_qr-code.png\" width=\"243\" height=\"243\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"https:\/\/www.prostudioconnection.net\/2009\/PC1101_31710704.png\" src=\"https:\/\/image.prostudioconnection.net\/2009\/PC1101_31710704.png\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDescription\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Orban Optimod-PC 1101 professional Microsoft Windows audio processing card for PCI bus systems offers dedicated, broadcast-quality digital signal processing on-board for audio processing, mixing, and routing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptimod-PC works great for both live streaming and on-demand programming. Its three on-board Freescale DSP56367 DSP chips provide a loud, consistent sound by performing stereo enhancement, automatic gain control (AGC), equalization, multiband gain control, peak-level control, and subjective loudness control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptimod-PC's audio driver allows it to appear as two standard sound devices to the computer's operating system. With one Optimod-PC, netcasters can replace selected content (such as commercials in a program originally created for radio broadcast) and inject watermark encoding for ratings. This approach maintains the same audio processing path on both program and inserted audio, delivering a polished, consistent sound while eliminating the number one listener complaint: loud commercials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"https:\/\/www.prostudioconnection.net\/1608\/P1313368b.JPG\" src=\"https:\/\/image.prostudioconnection.net\/1608\/P1313368b.JPG\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptimod-PC audio processing works with all digital transmission media and channels. It tailors your audio signal to help you compete in audio netcasting, HD Radio (both primary and multicast digital channels), DAB, DRM, and other dedicated digital radio services, FMExtra and other digital subcarriers, mastering, audio production, and many others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptimod processing algorithms simultaneously control audio gain and peaks, artistically, musically, and naturally, to give the illusion that processing is not taking place. Optimod algorithms intelligently adapt themselves to the input program material. Once Optimod-PC is tuned for the sound texture required for the broadcast or netcast format (which is made easy by the many format-specific presets), it will provide excellent consistency regardless of the level or texture of the original program material. Its automatic gain control and equalization achieve a consistent sound, while accurate peak control maximizes loudness. Booming bass is tightened; weak, thin bass is brought up; highs are always present and consistent in level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptimod-PC is also an excellent mastering processor, offering soft knee multiband compression with knee and ratio controls available separately for each band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptimod-PC comes with over 20 great-sounding presets that make it easy to create a sonic texture that's just right for your target audience.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Orban","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45426805440535,"sku":"Orban_PC1101","price":485.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0119\/2496\/3387\/files\/57_bfe7e7ba-066b-4b36-b278-7b45ce6e4c89.jpg?v=1778435221","url":"https:\/\/prostudioconnection.com\/products\/orban-optimod-pc1101-5-band-digital-audio-on-air-processing-card-pc-1101","provider":"ProStudioConnection LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
