Stand alone Console

Waves has Digigrid. UA already has hardware DSP. Wonder if it's possible for them to make a stand alone that can route for input monitoring of any core audio or ASIO sound card...

I get that there maybe limitations of something like that actually working, but this is the "Wants and WISHES" forum. You know what they say about wanting in one hand and "wishing" in the other.

Yes thats a great idea!!!!!!!!!!!-There is something coming out soon - Audinate Dante Via - Which will do what you want - So with the Apollo having an expansion plate on the back it would be an idea to have a Dante port expansion card that enables the connection to a network via cat5e [ethernet cable]-

Audinate already have the Dante Virtual Sound Card where a cat5e cable goes into the motherboard on your [PC / er Mac *can I mention PC here?]-LOL-

Focusrite have their Red Net [hi-end] solution - where users have a pci-e card to use the audinate sofware as above but the latencies are much lower but the price is much higher £699- for 128 I/O -and that doesn't include the hardware I/O boxes - ouch its expensive-

Apollo already has a Pro Tools mode - So full integration with that would be awesome maybe via a mini-or not mini digilink card that Avid use - There could be a UAD equivalent digilink expansion plate on their Apollo's-

This would give UAD access to one of the best audio network solutions in the world - as there is a Focusrite Red Net to get into Pro Tools - It may be an idea for Focusrite to do a Red Net unit for Apollo users - Its already been done for Pro Tools-

Like you mentioned musicman815 - This is the wants and wishes forum - But this tech exists - Its up to UAD to liase with other companies to implement something - The audinate is great as there is a low cost option and a very expensive option - and even the cheaper option is pretty good -

I'm digging this too. I hope UA comes out with a AVB/Dante card for the Apollo!
