Hear Back PRO SoundGrid Card / User Guide

Introduction
The Hear Back PRO Waves SoundGrid card enables a Hear Back PRO Hub to communicate with any pro audio
equipment on a Waves SoundGrid network,
including directly out of a PC or Mac using only its Ethernet port. Each card
connects 16 channels of simultaneous audio input and output. Two cards can be used per Hub to allow A/B input
switching between two banks of 16 channels over standard Ethernet network connections.
The card supports sampling rates of 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2 kHz, and 96 kHz.
SoundGrid is the Waves high-speed networking protocol for moving audio, clock, and other information between a host
system and I/O devices—and between I/O devices themselves. A SoundGrid host manages the network and assigns
servers and I/O devices to mix, process, and record, depending on the host. All SoundGrid devices connect to the host
with standard Ethernet cable.
SoundGrid is scalable. Connect one I/O device to a DAW and you have a high-quality sound card. Add more I/Os and
your system becomes more flexible and powerful. Depending on the host application, a SoundGrid host can assign up to
sixteen I/O devices. Complete SoundGrid systems can be networked together to share devices.
Add a server to a SoundGrid system to offload plugin processing from the host CPU to a SoundGrid DSP server. This
dramatically increases processing power and enables greater plugin counts—it also provides very low system latency.
