Decentralized Audio Network
RockNet is a genuine audio net work plat form, designed purposely for live sound applications and op-
timized for audio contribution and distribution.
RockNet provides a virtual distribut ed audio matrix with a capacity of:
•
768 inputs
•
768 outputs
•
160 transport channels over CA T.5
In multiple stage setups the high amount of inputs can be used to build an audio network that covers
all stages with only one FOH console and multiple monitor mixing consoles.
The S naps hot functionality of the included online remot e cont rol software RockWorks (please see t he
RockWorks Operating Manual) allows to partially activate a net work that carries 160 audio channels
while having up to 768 inputs.
This functionality can also be used in any application where more than 160 inputs are required in total
but not more than 160 inputs are active at the same time.
The high amount of outputs can be used for large drive systems and to distribute audio to several
destinations within one infrastructure. It offers an almost unlimited number of splits in practical terms.
