SoundGrid Connect is a new feature of the SoundGrid driver, allowing users to connect any ASIO/Core Audio-compatible audio interface to SoundGrid technology and dramatically boost the capacity of their system. By offloading plug-in processing to the server, users can smoothly run hundreds of plug-ins. freeing their computer’s CPU for other tasks. Users who already have a SoundGrid I/O can also use SoundGrid Connect to expand their SoundGrid network and add to it any ASIO/Core Audio interface. SoundGrid Connect is available free of charge to any owner of at least one Waves software product.
