I/O Sharing
A single SoundGrid system consists of a host computer with the SoundGrid Studio app running, an Ethernet
switch, at least one SoundGrid server, and a least one I/O. These elements communicate through a SoundGrid
SOE network. All connected I/O devices within this system can be assigned and patched to the host.
All I/O devices, servers, and local drivers in
this SOE network are seen in the System
Inventory.
CONNECTED SYSTEMS
Multiple SoundGrid systems can be linked by connecting their
Ethernet switches. This enables hosts within this “Super System”
to build private networks from all connected I/Os, servers, and
drivers. These assignments are exclusive; devices assigned to a
host are available only to that host until they are un-assigned.
Other users will see the assigned devices in their System
Inventories, but they will be grayed out and unavailable.
Individual I/O channels cannot be shared in this configuration.
