DiGiGrid DLI iGrid Networking Hub for Pro Tools Systems and SoundGrid

The DiGiGrid DLI is a networking hub that bridges Pro Tools systems and SoundGrid. With two DigiLink ports delivering up to 64 inputs and outputs, the DLI lets you get more from your existing setup. DLI works in one of two modes – I/O and SGP – which offer different capabilities to meet the needs of your application.

In I/O Mode, the DLI bridges Pro Tools systems with SoundGrid I/Os and DSP servers. In this mode, the HD/HDX or HD Native system remains your playback engine, while the DLI appears as individual I/O units from which you can expand your studio by connecting additoinal SoundGrid I/Os and by offloading your plugin processing to additional SoundGrid servers.

In SGP Mode, the DLI enables you to control a variety of DigiLink-enabled I/Os, bridge your favorite DAW (Logic, Cubase, Nuendo, Ableton, Pro Tools Native etc.) with SoundGrid applications and ASIO/Core AUdio drivers, and offload your plugin processing to a SoundGrid Server.

DiGiGrid DLI comes with the complete SoundGrid Studio System software, which includes the SoundGrid Studio application, StudioRack, and the eMotion ST mixer. With full plugin integration inside your DAW, you can run up to hundreds of SoundGrid-compatible Waves and third-party plugins at an incredibly low latency of only 0.8 milliseconds.
