IOX
1.3 Software Installation
After you register your new IOX, you can download the installer from the Download/Hardware Drivers section of the Waves website.
Since SoundGrid enables you to access an I/O device from any computer in the network, you will need to install the software on
each computer in the network.
The IOX installer consists of:
■
The IOX I/O hardware driver.
■
The SoundGrid ASIO/Core Audio driver, which serves as a bridge between the DAW and the SoundGrid network.
■
The SoundGrid Studio Application, which manages all SoundGrid network resources and assigns devices to computers.
■
StudioRack, a software plugin rack, or chainer, that hosts up to eight plugins and can move their processing from the DAW to
an external SoundGrid server. (External server not included.)
■
eMotion ST, a software mixer that provides low-latency plugin processing and monitor mixing. Requires an external server.
1.4 Licenses
DiGiGrid Native I/O devices do not require a license to operate in a SoundGrid network. However, certain advanced features, such as
using StudioRack and eMotion ST for low-latency recording and monitoring, or offloading processing from the host CPU, require a
server and a SoundGrid license. This license is included with the purchase of IOX.
When you register your device, the relevant licenses are deposited in your Waves account. Use the Waves License Center application
to activate your licenses and install them on your computer or on a USB flash drive.
