ALLEN & HEATH SQ-WAVES Network Card

ALLEN & HEATH SQ-WAVES Network Card

ALLEN & HEATH SQ-WAVES is a professional I/O expansion card designed for SQ series mixers and AHM matrix processors. This module provides a 64x64 channel 96kHz or 48kHz interface to the Waves SoundGrid network, allowing engineers to use Waves plugins with ultra-low latency, perform multi-channel recording, and digitally route signals.

With this card, the SQ mixer becomes a full-fledged part of the SoundGrid ecosystem. This not only allows the use of top-class audio processing tools during live sound events but also connects the mixer to other Waves-compatible devices via standard Ethernet infrastructure. The SQ-WAVES is an ideal choice for studios and concert tours where flexible integration with computer-based Digital Audio Workstations (DAW) is required.
