Dante Virtual Soundcard (DVS)
DVS is a software application which allows a Mac or Windows PC’s onboard
Ethernet port to act as a Dante soundcard. This software is not a requirement for all
Dante systems, but is a very useful tool. It is provided free-of-charge with
many RedNet products.
To download DVS, please register your RedNet product at www.focusrite.com/register
using the bundle code found in the box. After registration, a link will be provided with
details of how to obtain DVS.
