INTRODUCTION
The Livemix LM-DANTE-EXP is an add-on option card for the
MIX-16/32 that allows the Livemix personal monitor system to
connect to a Dante network. The system can receive up to 24
channels from the Dante network. Any published channel can be
assigned to any of the 24 available channels in the Livemix personal
monitor system.
Audinate’s Dante network protocol delivers a no hassle, self

integrated control data with sub millisecond latency, sample-
accurate playback synchronization, extreme reliability and high

NOTE:
It is important to
understand how your
Dante devices publish
audio streams to the
network. Many digital
consoles have multiple
output options and many
of them can be published
to the Dante network.
Consult the manual for
your particular Dante
device to ensure you have
published channels to the
network.
