11.3.2. Dante Controller settings

When you start Dante Controller, the Network View opens first.
In Network View, you can specify the audio routing between the Dante devices. This screen shows all Dante
devices on the network. Click the cell [+] at which the transmitting and receiving devices intersect so that all
channels are shown, and then specify the audio routing. When a route is established, a green checkbox icon
appears.

For details, refer to the Dante Controller user manual.
For details regarding the Dante channel to which the output of a transmitting device (e.g., digital mixer) is
assigned, refer to the manual of the transmitting device.
