Learn how to set up ‘SG Connect’ to offload plugin processing to a dedicated SoundGrid server, using a non-SoundGrid audio interface, SoundGrid Studio application and the StudioRack plugin. This setup is intended for mixing purposes only.
All SoundGrid applications and driver require selecting a SoundGrid network port. Some systems will display a list of available network ports; follow these steps to identify the correct port.
