Dante Virtual Soundcard setup
RedNet 4 only, no switch, straight to host Ethernet port

CAT

6

Ethernet
Cable

8 Channel Mic Pre

This shows the very simple network required if your system does not include a RedNet PCIe card.

The host computer would instead have the Dante Virtual Soundcard installed, and a single Cat6

connection between RedNet 4 and the host’s resident Ethernet port would suffice. This system would

be ideal for basic high-quality recording but would require monitoring to be through an amplifier/

speaker system connected directly to the host computer’s resident audio output.
