Rack Installation
STAGEGRID 4000 is a standard 19" rack mount, four RU in height.
A fan at the rear panel provides proper cooling for the unit.
Air exits the enclosure through front and sides. Do not obstruct
the air low.
To ensure that the equipment operates within the full rated
temperature range, it is necessary to maintain a distance of one
rack unit from other equipment.
If more than one STAGEGRID 4000 is used, it is possible to group
two units together, as shown in this figure.
Regularly clean the dust filter located on top of the fan—without using water or any other liquid.
If a replacement is required, a 45ppi filter should be used.

Setups
Studio
The simplest implementation of the device is to use the STAGEGRID as an audio interface for a native
DAW.
Using SoundGrid driver, all channels will be seen as a local interface and the control panel will allow you
to set all equipment parameters.

Live
By adding a Waves server, all real-time processing is offloaded from the host computer, allowing for
more power-demanding plugins.
With eMotion LV1 on the host computer, you'll have a complete 32-channel software mixing console.
eMotion LV1 is a light, flexible,and powerful mixing console with up to eight plugins per channel.

Large PA
To increase the channel count, more STAGEGRID 4000scan be added to the system.Network components
are connected with Ethernet switches, so configurations can easily be modified according to the needs of
event.
In this example,two servers are used together for redundancy, significantly increasing fault tolerance. The
system is divided between between stage and house mix positions.
