Dante Virtual Soundcard
(DVS) is a software application
that turns your PC or Mac into a Dante enabled device allowing up to 64
channels of bi-directional audio for recording, processing and playback
when connected to a standard computer Gigabit Ethernet port, either
direct from the M-DANTE card or via an Ethernet switch. No additional
hardware is required.
Note For minimum system requirements and support information please
visit the Support section at Audinate: www.audinate.com
Note Install Dante Virtual Soundcard on the computer you intend to use
for recording. Once registered the licence cannot be transferred to
another computer.
Note Computer based recording applications use a lot of processing
power and memory. For best results we recommend that you do not run
other applications on the computer while recording. Refer to Audinate for
more information.
Windows The DVS uses Steinberg’s ASIO audio interface and can be
used with any audio application that supports ASIO.
Mac OSX The DVS uses the standard Core Audio interface.

Audinate for information on how to install, configure and use the DVS
software.
