Dante Spoken Here

Dante audio networking is used extensively for live performance events, commercial installations, broadcast, recording and production, and communications systems. Our growing range of Dante audio networking cards and dedicated Dante-enabled I/O expanders makes it easy to integrate our dLive, SQ and ME systems into a Dante network.

What is Dante?

Created by Audinate, Dante audio networking utilizes standard IP networks to transmit high-quality, uncompressed audio with near-zero latency. It’s an economical, versatile, and easy-to-use audio networking solution, and is scalable from simple installations to large-capacity networks running thousands of audio channels. Dante can replace multiple analog or multicore cables with a single affordable Ethernet cable to transmit high-quality multi-channel audio safely and reliably. With Dante software, the network can be easily expanded and reconfigured with just a few mouse clicks.

Dante Domain Manager Ready

Dante Domain Manager (DDM) is network management software that enables user authentication, role-based security and audit capabilities for Dante networks, while allowing seamless expansion of Dante systems over any network infrastructure. All Allen & Heath Dante-enabled products are DDM ready.

Dante Virtual Soundcard

Dante Virtual Soundcard is software from Audinate that lets you connect up to 32 channels from your SQ or dLive system at 96kHz, or 64 channels at 48kHz, directly to your PC or Mac via its Ethernet port, ideal for multitrack recording and playback, or working with popular processing plug-ins. Dante Virtual Soundcard licences can be purchased from Audinate.

If you’re interested in delving deeper into the world of Dante, you can find a wealth of online training and learning resources on the Audinate website.
