Waves Soundgrid Server Diy Password But It

I just built one from an old MB and got lucky as it works Im loading plugins in StudioRack within Pro Tools.

You dont need to click anything here, instead click on the Boot selection-Dropdown - select Syslinux 6.04 from the Boot selection-Dropdown - hit START.

Youll get some warning dialogs, as well as some dialogs where you need to allow Rufus to download syslinux.

Zip - navigate to C:ProgramDataWaves AudioSoundGrid FirmwareSGS - open the.wfi file with 7-zip - extract the content to your USB stick - eject the USB stick and put it in your server.

I was a little surprised as offloading plugins to SoundGrid incurs about 6000 samples of latency at 44.1.

Has this also been your finding.

Waves Soundgrid Server Diy Password But It

I changed the password but it didnt save because of the nature of the bootable USB image.

It would not hurt the PC or USB as content is booted into RAM.

Hi folks) I started the server and everything works fine (for now).

For some reason the server is in safe mode, tried updating the firmware it didnt help.

Any ideas.

Hello Folks This may be a bit off topic but I wanted to share a test I did on mix session where I used the same SoundGrid server PC and then I loaded a vanilla Windows 10 on the same system with AudioGridder and the same Waves plugins as in the DAW PC.

Below are my proscons from both servers: AudioGridder vs SoundGrid: 1) AudioGridder can load almost any type of audio DSP VST while SoundGrid at the moment only works with Waves plugins.

There are some issues with some brands where AudioGridder will fail to recognize those.

Performance wise, on the same mix project which I looped in playback for around 1 hour both servers performed almost exactly on the same CPU load.

This was very surprising for me as AudioGridder needs to run on full blown OS (Windows 10).

Both systems reported random late buffers (Im using Cakewalk and it provides late buffer information) as I was testing on a mix with a lot of plugins.

Doing an offline bouncing of the mix using SoundGrid server (at least on Cakewalk) requires moving all processing back to DAW PC.

This takes a bit of time as it needs to offload back, then render on the DAW and then when it is finish move all DSP back to the SoundGrid server.

This makes it, at least in Cakewalk, way faster.

I need to check for errors and glitches on the AudioGridders bounced mix).

GUI response on plugins was better on SoundGrid as the plugins and GUI is hosted on the DAW side while AudioGridder streams the GUI interface via the network.

NOTE: A properly configured Windows 10 system with AudioGridder could get you a smooth GUI response.

Initially I had terrible GUI response from AudioGridder and I had to VNC to the server for plugin configuration.

This is an easy one, SoundGridcommercial while AudioGridderOpen source.

SoundGrid allows for sidechain communication between plugins, AudioGridder doesnt have this function yet.

Nevertheless, I love that you could assign automation on the available controls a plugin provides in AudioGridder by simply clicking the drop-down for that plugin.

NOTE: for the short amount of time AudioGridder has been out it works very, very well.

Im considering dropping my SoundGrid effort and moving entirely to AudioGridder.
