FOH/Monitor linking through a switch
This example shows two iLive systems using Dante as a digital mic
splitter to share the Mic Preamps for FOH and Monitor mixing. The
Gigabit switch is needed if you want to add recording and other Dante
equipped audio devices.
Bridging the console network over Dante
This example shows an iLive MixRack with one of its Network ports
connected to the Dante Control Network port so that the console Editor
software can be run on the same computer as Dante Controller.
