Hear Technologies WSG Bridge for Dante

Bridge the Waves SoundGrid and Dante™ protocols

Description

Hear Technologies WSG Bridge for Dante

Add Waves’ Real-Time Processing to Dante™ Networks

Bring Waves’ powerful, award-winning plugins into your Dante network with the rack-mountable WSG Bridge. Fluent in SoundGrid and Dante, WSG Bridge bidirectionally routes up to 64 channels between Dante and SoundGrid networks for processing, audio interfacing, and much more.

In addition, dedicating a Waves SoundGrid Server to running Waves and 3rd party SoundGrid plugins adds ultra-low latency processing capabilities for up to 64 channels of your Dante network.

  • Bring the award-winning sound of Waves plugins into Dante networks
  • 64 channels of bidirectional audio between Dante and SoundGrid
  • Port for redundant power supply (optional, purchase separately)
  • Supports sample rates from 44.1 kHz to 96 kHz
  • Rugged, 1U rack-mountable enclosure
  • Clock source: SoundGrid/Dante, and synchronization over Ethernet

System I/O

Latency

Typical Dante to WSG or WSG to Dante Latency:*
0.787ms @ 44.1kHz
