Introduction

SuperRack SoundGrid is a software host that lets live sound engineers run multiple, simultaneous instances of the
same award-winning Waves plugins used in recording studios and mixing rooms the world over. It provides a
software equivalent of outboard hardware processing racks. SuperRack can be configured with up to 64 racks, and
each rack can host up to eight plugins. You can view and control one plugin, or one rack, or up to 64 racks at a time.
SuperRack SoundGrid operates in a SoundGrid network, and each host can assign up to eight servers. This moves
plugin processing from the host computer to the server and significantly increases plugin count, minimizes latency,
and enables the host and I/O devices to be far removed from each other.
The first chapter of this user guide is about getting started: installation, configuration, the basics of using SuperRack.
Read it; it may be all you need. The rest of this guide provides detailed descriptions and about every section of the
product. You'll also find explanations of some of the concepts that you need in order to effectively run a networked
system (e.g., clock, I/O sharing, chaining, latency). There's a comprehensive table of contents that will quickly take
you to the topic you need, and throughout the guide there are internal links that jump to relevant information.
