Com over redundant CAT5 using Dante

I am looking really hard at three of these for our church. Seems like exactly what we need two on the platform and one in the booth. They would support he mains, sub, IEMs from the front, and all our booth inputs and outputs for recording, foyers cans ETC in the booth.

How do you expect to control the preamp gain?

These are also similarly priced to the allen & heath ones used on the qu and gld mixers.

The QU hardware is proprietary The Yamaha uses Dante I will be controlling it including preamp gain with AMP. I didn't upgrade my SAC license so I don't know what SAC supports anymore.

Is this with the Dante PCI card or through the virtual soundcard?

the Dante PCI card, which features a redundant connection. This provides 128x128 channels.

Frank,

We have used SAC with rednet pcie for many years in our Church.
We are using a Yamaha big cousin RIO 1608 and rednet 4's preamps.
The Yamaha RIO can use the RIO remote but SAC does not control preamp gain for those devices directly to my knowledge.
The Rednet preamps new control will allow saving preamp configurations just not controlled from SAC.

Hi,
why not use two S-16? In this case you can control the the Gain via the unit at the FoH or using a plug in for SAC (which would need a midi connection to the stage).

How do you get AES50 In and Out of your computer then? Yeah you can use those ADAT ports but that's the entire point of going with Dante, to get rid of all these damn ADAT optical ports which were never intended for this use and are always flacky. AES50 is also point to point, not a network like Dante. With Dante you can build a true star network and drop mulitple I/O units where you need them without the need to create a daisy chain like you do with AES50 or MADI or Blulink, etc...

Yamaha has an application you can run on Mac or PC to control any of the RIO or the TIO box. It's the last tab on the product page on the web site.

Plus I would spend $1K on a Yamaha box any day over spending $900 on anything from Behringer.
