7. Audinate Software Tools
Dante Controller
The Dante Controller is a software application provided by Audinate
which allows users to configure and route audio around Dante
networks. It is available for PCs running Windows and Apple Macs
running OSX 10.5. Dante Controller must be installed on one or more
PC/Mac computers on the Dante network in order to change any signal
routing or clocking in the network. Dante Controller is not required,
when everything is pre-configured, for running audio between Dante
devices over the network.
Dante Virtual Soundcard
The Dante Virtual Soundcard is a software application that turns your
PC or Mac into a Dante-enabled device, allowing Dante audio traffic
to be transmitted and received using the standard Ethernet port.
No additional hardware is required. On Windows, the Dante Virtual
Soundcard uses Steinberg's ASIO audio interface, and can be used with
any audio application that supports ASIO or WDM. On Mac OSX, the
Dante Virtual Soundcard uses the standard Core Audio interface, and
can be used by almost any standard audio application.
