VST Plug-in processing for Your Dante System
The Yamaha RUio16-D Dante audio interface is a smart solution for live sound engineers to integrate plug-in processing with their live performance rigs. Use its VST Rack Pro software application (Mac/Win) to load up your plug-in processors of choice, then use its 16 x 16-channel Dante connectivity to interface with your console. As a bonus, the RUio16-D offers a pair of premium mic preamps, both with +48V phantom power as well as an input pad for hot signals. With all this packed into a compact and rugged enclosure that's built for life on the road, the Yamaha RUio16-D Dante interface with VST Rack software offers streamlined plug-in processing for live sound applications.
VST Rack Pro software
The Yamaha RUio16-D connects to your Mac or Windows computer via USB to take advantage of the VST Rack Pro software, allowing you to create your own effects chains using your favorite VST processors. Over 30 popular plug-ins are included, and you can use any VST and VST3 plug-ins you already own too. And with 16 channels of Dante connectivity available to interface with your console, you have a ton of routing flexibility. We especially appreciates the RUio16-D's bypass button — if you happen to have any issues with your computer hosting the VST Rack Pro software, you can immediately bypass plug-in processing to prevent any possible disruption to the performance.
