FIT Controller for eMotion LV1

Typical eMotion LV1 Setup with the FIT Controller

An eMotion LV1 system consists of at least the following:

1. Host computer: Controls the eMotion LV1 mixer as well as the SoundGrid network that connects all devices. The eMotion LV1 application is located on this computer, as are your plugins and preset files. eMotion LV1 runs on both Mac and Windows and supports multiple displays
2. SoundGrid server: This is where your plugins are being processed. The power of the server has direct impact on the number of plugin instances you can run
3. At least one SoundGrid I/O: Ranging from 2-channel preamps to multiple 128-channel audio interfaces (such as the DiGiGrid MGB/MGO SoundGrid-to-MADI I/Os). All I/O devices are connected to the SoundGrid network via Ethernet
4. SoundGrid-compatible 1Gb Ethernet switch: Links the host computer, the server, and all I/O devices
5. Waves FIT control surface

Large eMotion LV1 Setup with the FIT Controller

Here is a larger eMotion LV1 mixer setup, with extra control surfaces, more audio interfaces, a redundant server, and more:

1. Host computer running the eMotion LV1 mixer
2. Second multi-touch screen for eMotion LV1 (optional)
3. SoundGrid server
4. Redundant SoundGrid server (optional)
5. SoundGrid-compatible 1Gb Ethernet switch
6. SoundGrid I/O
7. Additional computer for playback/recording (optional)
8. Waves FIT control surface
9. Outside feed

When multiple devices are used on stage, it is advisable to connect all of them to a single Ethernet switch that connects to the main switch. Daisy-chaining Ethernet connections in these setups is not advisable.
