SHARING A DEVICE
Device sharing enables different hosts to assign devices that are already claimed by other hosts and route available
device I/O channels. A host that patches I/O channels from a device that’s been assigned to another host (the
manager) is called the client of that device. A host can be a manager of some devices and a client of others. A
device can have several clients, within the limits of the device’s maximum output to the network. Each destination
establishes a direct connection from the shared I/O device.
For example, a 128-input MGB
patched to four hosts will use up the 1 Gb network capacity of the SoundGrid
network.

In this case, the device will output 128 x 4 channels=512 channels (at 48 kHz).

DiGiGrid MGB and MGO MADI-to-SoundGrid interfaces are used to connect MADI-enabled devices to a Waves SoundGrid network. The MGB
unit is equipped with MADI BNC connections; MGO is equipped with MADI optical connections. Refer to the MGO user guide, which is available
on the Waves Manuals download page
