Default Omni and Izotope RX without PT?

I am using an Omni and an HD Sync with Pro Tools HD native. I am on Windows 10 with an old, but previously Avid qualified HP Z400. I do have a Digilink license. All is working fine.

I would like to use the Omni to get audio into the computer for other software. Specifically, I would like to get audio into Izotope RX 6 without using Pro Tools. There are many threads here about getting audio OUT of an Omni, but that is not what I want to do.

Yes, I do know about RX connect and that does function as a work-around. Yes, I do know about RX Monitor and that also doesn't completely address this.

I also know about the ASIO Avid driver in RX preferences. I suspected that may be the solution but it didn't seem to help when I tried it. I really don't know much about it.

Has anyone here been able to get this to work?

Thank you.

First off, is Windows set(in Sound>Properties) to use HDN/Omni as its default playback device?

The vast majority of Windows systems are best off with Windows set to use the computer's on-board sound card as the default playback device. So with that in mind, could you take an optical SPDIF output from the motherboard and connect that to a matching input of the OMNI and then use the Omni's monitoring function(its SUPPOSED to allow any input to be monitored).

Thank you for taking the time to read and reply to my question.

Please understand that I am trying to get audio IN to RX and, of course I am talking about RX stand-alone, not when used as a plug-in.

No, I do not see the Omni as a choice for the Windows device. ...and that of course is my problem.

The Z400 does not have motherboard digital connections.....only analog. I guess that I could use a sound card but I am really hoping to essentially use the Omni and Avid Dgilink card as a soundcard.

So perhaps a better question might be.....
Windows users: does the Omni show up as a choice in Windows control panel for default input/output device?

Again, thank you.

Just got RX6 and it's pretty amazing. For standalone I had to go into the preferences for RX and select my audio interface (Avid 11 Rack) for the ins and outs. Should be the same for Windows I would imagine.

Is the OMNI available under Sound Properties>Recording? You could also record into Pro Tools session and then Drag&Drop the audio from the session Audio Files folder, directly into RX

Source-Nexus (if you were mac) allows you to pipe audio around your programs.
I am sorry I do not know of a windows equivalent.
