Frequently Asked Questions
The dual Dante interfaces allow for seamless failover; if the primary connection fails, the secondary takes over instantly, minimizing interruption to the show.
The LiveBox Dante is designed primarily for Waves plugins via the SoundGrid platform. While technically possible with workarounds, it's not officially supported and may lead to instability.
While the core processing is handled by the i7 and SoundGrid, the USB 2.0 ports can become a bottleneck for transferring large plugin presets or firmware updates, especially when multiple devices are connected.
