Connecting Dante Devices
The following example illustrates two Vi1 consoles 'House' and 'Monitor'.
Audio inputs are sent to the monitor console, these can be connected directly to the console or via a
stagebox attached via a MADI card to the monitor console.
A direct output from each input of the monitor console feeds the FOH console which is patched to
receive audio from the Dante option card.
The FOH console mix is returned to two spare channels of the monitor console and the direct
outputs of those inputs are in turn patched to the system outputs; once again these can be directly
on the console or attached via a MADI card to the monitor console.
The link between the Dante cards may be via a switch as shown with a solid green line or direct from
card to card as shown by the dotted green line.
NOTE: Once configured the PC is not required.
NOTE: Dante may operate in redundant mode, this is not shown for simplicity.
