Installing the Waves SoundGrid host application will also install applicable device drivers and ASIO/Core Audio drivers. 
Your devices will appear in the Inventory of your host system. If a device is not visible in the Inventory, you may need to 
install a specific driver from 

Waves Central

—please see below. First, however, check the device’s connections and 

power.
