For over 50 years, Orban has been the undisputed leader in professional audio processing. Founded by industry legend Bob Orban, the company revolutionized the airwaves with the invention of the OPTIMOD—the world’s first integrated FM processor and stereo generator.
Today, Orban remains the go-to choice for top-tier broadcasters like iHeartRadio, Disney, and the BBC to ensure their sound is loud, clear, and consistent across every platform.
Why Orban Powers the Modern Stream:
- Signature OPTIMOD Sound: Achieve that "big radio" texture with industry-leading peak limiting and multiband compression.
- Loudness Consistency: Advanced algorithms maintain perfect levels (ITU-R BS.1770-4 compliant) without the "pumping" artifacts found in cheaper processors.
- Streaming Optimization: Exclusive PreCode™ technology cleans up audio before it hits low-bitrate encoders, ensuring your mobile listeners get high-fidelity sound.
- Hybrid Ready: Whether you are running traditional FM/AM or purely Digital/HD Radio, Orban hardware and software (like the PCn 1600) offer total control over your station's sonic identity.
