Add I/Os
Adding I/O devices not only increases the number of I/O channels, but lets you have separate devices for stage and
FOH, or live room and control room. When you have more than one device in the SoundGrid network, use a "star"
network configuration with a 1GB Ethernet switch. Only use switches tested and approved by Waves.

You can connect and assign up to 16 SoundGrid I/O devices to the network, depending on the SoundGrid Host
Application. All SoundGrid I/O devices, hosts, and servers are connected through the Ethernet switch. You can also
add more computers to enable audio streaming among hosts.

To add a server to your SoundGrid system, just connect it to the Ethernet switch and configure it in your host
application. This moves all DSP processing from the host computer to the server, which provides a higher plugin
count and enables the eMotion LV1 and ST mixers. Visit the
SoundGrid servers. Consult your SoundGrid host application’s user guide to learn about using servers.
