CONNECTING THE VIRGIL OB TO A DANTE NETWORK
The Virgil OB is a network audio device utilizing the reliable and versatile Dante®
audio over IP protocol. Dante is a proprietary system (although very widely used) the
originators of which are Audinate.
The information below is only meant as a very basic guide. Full details of the power
of Dante network audio and instructions for using it can be found at
Two Audio Inputs
There are just 2 audio inputs to the Virgil OB from the Dante® network. One input is
routed to the left ear and the other to the right ear of the headphone amplifier. If you
would like the same audio source in both ears then this can be achieved by routing
the same source to both the inputs channels in Dante controller.
Getting Dante Controller
If you are connecting the inferno to a new Dante network the first thing you will need
to do is to get the free Dante controller software from Audinate.
This can be downloaded by visiting Audinate’s web site at
Connecting Virgil OBs To A Network
Virgil OBs can be connected to the network that you are going to use for your audio
distribution simply by plugging in the network connection on the rear. Once
connected to the network it will be possible to see the Virgil OB from within the
Dante® controller and route the audio circuits.
Audio Over IP Network
We strongly recommend that you consider your network topology carefully and
would not recommend sharing broadcast audio and general data on the same
network.
