DSPro StageGrid 1000 / User Guide

Introduction
DSPro StageGrid 1000 is a compact I/O device for eMotion LV1 live mixing systems. It features eight analog mic/line
inputs and four balanced analog outputs, plus one channel of AES/EBU digital I/O. All channels are digitally controlled.
There are two headphone outs with independent volume controls. All components are carefully selected and tested to
ensure continuous system stability and maximum dependability. Built in a compact, robust 1U rack-mountable chassis,
DSPro StageGrid 1000 provides a seamless solution for live sound applications, coupled with the modularity and power
of SoundGrid technology.
SoundGrid is the Waves high-speed networking protocol for moving audio, clock, and other information between a host
system and I/O devices—and between I/O devices themselves. A SoundGrid host manages the network and assigns
servers and I/O devices to mix, process, and record, depending on the host. All SoundGrid devices connect to the host
with standard Ethernet cable.
SoundGrid is scalable. Connect one I/O device to a DAW and you have a high-quality sound card. Add more I/Os and
your system becomes more flexible and powerful. Depending on the host application, a SoundGrid host can assign up to
sixteen I/O devices. Complete SoundGrid systems can be networked together to share devices.
Add a server to a SoundGrid system to offload plugin processing from the host CPU to a SoundGrid DSP server.
This dramatically increases processing power and enables greater plugin counts, as well as providing very low
system latency.
