The Vi5000 and Vi7000 systems feature Local Rack and Stagebox inputs and outputs (I/O). The Local Rack houses
the system DSP (audio processing), data connections, and some direct digital and analogue audio connections. It is
designed to remain local to the control surface and connects via the supplied Console-To-Local-Rack cable.
The Stagebox connects to the Local rack via MADI and is designed to provide physical inputs and outputs on-stage.
The system can connect to multiple Stageboxes via multiple MADI cards. Many different types of I/O are available for
the system with the ViSi Connect series of optional interface cards designed to fit either the Local Rack or the
Compact Stagebox (and in some cases, the Vi Stagebox).
