Setups
Native DAW with a DiGiGrid IOS-XL
Offloading Audio Processing to the IOS-XL's Built-In SoundGrid Server
This setup shows a typical studio that includes a host computer with a Native DAW and a single I/O interface connecting mics, instruments, headphones and monitors.
DiGiGrid IOS-XL
Host computer with a Native DAW
By using a DiGiGrid IOS-XL with its built-in SoundGrid DSP server, you can offload audio processing from the DAW. This affords much more processing power (up to 8 plugins per StudioRack insert). Plus, you can use StudioRack in conjunction with the eMotion ST mixer. This enables you to record and monitor with very low latency and increases the number of plugins you can use simultaneously.
One Computer, One I/O with a DSP Server, One Expansion I/O Unit, One DAW
You probably want to run more plugins. Perhaps you want to record small ensembles and then mix with a large number of plugins, or record and monitor with very low latency.
By adding the IOS-XL's built-in DSP server to your SoundGrid network you can offload your audio processing. This greatly increases the number of plugins you can use simultaneously. Plus, it enables you to use the eMotion ST mixer, which lets you create personalized monitor mixes from your DAW mix and from outside sources, and also allows you to open 64 StudioRacks and use them for low-latency monitoring.
DAW (Pro Tools, Nuendo, Cubase, Logic, etc.) with SoundGrid Studio installed
Multi-input SoundGrid I/O device with server – DiGiGrid IOS-XL
SoundGrid expansion I/O – DiGiGrid IOX
Need more I/Os? Simply connect a DiGiGrid IOX expansion unit to your DiGiGrid IOS-XL using a single Cat 5e or Cat 6 cable, and now you have 12 more inputs with top-grade preamps, 6 line outs, and 4 more individual headphone outputs.
Running Various DAWs Simultaneously Using a Single DiGiGrid IOS-XL
This configuration is for running audio from multiple DAWs simultaneously and mixing them in real time.
DiGiGrid IOS-XL
Host computer with Native DAW
Computer 2 – Native DAW
Computer 3 – Native DAW
Computer 4 – Native DAW
1 GB network switch
Each of the four computers is connected to the DiGiGrid IOS-XL Ethernet switch via a single Cat 5e or Cat 6 Ethernet cable.
Every computer in a SoundGrid network uses the SoundGrid driver to stream audio into the SoundGrid network. In this setup the main host computer running the SoundGrid Studio Application patches between all host computers within the network and configures their ASIO/Core Audio driver ins and outs.
This is a classic case where the eMotion ST mixer can come in handy. Outputs from all DAWs are routed to the eMotion ST mixer, which controls all of them globally, including processing, routing, and feeds to your monitors, whether in the studio or on stage.
USB port (emergency port to boot server – support function only)
Reset switch
2 Headphone outputs with analogue level controlls
Settings for different broadcast level formats via jumpers on all analog I/Os
