DIGIGRID DLS/DLI
3.6.2 Reserving Channels
DLI/DLS can stream up to 64 channels, which you can use for processing or I/Os—or both. Once you’ve congured the I/Os between
the DLI/DLS and SoundGrid, choose how to use these channels.
Locate the DLI/DLS in I/O slot A. From the menu, select “Assign to StudioRack.” You will see a count of StudioRack channels in
blocks of 16, up to a maximum of 64. Each block represents the inputs and outputs of one active DigiLink connection. Examples of
connections may include:
■
DL1 Avid Expansion ( I/O 1: 1–16)
■
DL1 PCI Card (1: 1–16; 2: 1–16)
For each block, decide if you want to use it for DSP processing or to send it to
an I/O. Please refer to the StudioRack user guide to learn more about server-
based processing in I/O mode.
Adding a DSP server to a Pro Tools HD/HDX or HD Native system does not
aect Pro Tools functionality.
As described in the previous chapter, channels
assigned manually to StudioRack route audio
through the I/O to the DSP server and back.
These channels will not be used for I/O and
will not appear in the SoundGrid Patch. Note
the there are no patch points for DLS-1. If all
channels have been assigned to StudioRack,
there will be no I/O for that device.
