Cadac has finalised its licensing of SoundGrid technology with Waves Audio. The agreement enables the two companies to develop an interface between Cadac’s proprietary MegaComms networking technology and Waves’ SoundGrid and plug-in products.

‘The intention is to integrate Waves MultiRack SoundGrid with our MegaComms networking technology,’ says Cadac Brand Development Manager, Richard Ferriday. ‘This will give Cadac users access to the huge range of Waves MultiRack plug-ins, which can then be incorporated with the console’s own processing options.’

‘Waves is pleased that more and more live engineers are able to se the SoundGrid platform,’ says Mick Olesh, Waves Audio EVP. ‘Consoles fully loaded with SoundGrid make it easier than ever to bring Waves quality audio processing to the stage.’

Cadac MegaComms is an advanced audio networking technology that provides high bandwidth and performance in a digital audio networking protocol. The technology currently supports transmission of 192 channels of 96kHz, 24-bit audio on a single cable over distances of up to 150m with very low latency. Future development will see capacity expanded to 256 channels. The agreement with Waves Audio is a key element in a development programme that will provide MegaComms interface solutions for all current industry standard networking and transmission protocols.
