Audinate - Dante Virtual Sound Card - Dvs-4.4.1.3 Standalone ((install)) Guide
Dante Virtual Soundcard (DVS) v4.4.1.3: A Professional Audio Overview
- Multichannel audio I/O: Exposes the PC/Mac as a Dante device with configurable channel counts to send and receive multiple simultaneous audio channels over Ethernet.
- Low latency and tight sync: Leverages Dante’s clocking and packet timing to deliver deterministic, low-latency audio suitable for live sound, broadcast, and studio use.
- Native OS integration: Acts as a standard audio device in Windows and macOS, so DAWs, conferencing apps, playback tools, and broadcast software can route audio via Dante without extra hardware.
- Simple configuration: Select the network interface, choose the channel count and latency profile, and let Dante Controller discover and route channels across the Dante network.
- Compatibility: Works with the broad Dante ecosystem—mixers, consoles, interfaces, and processors from many manufacturers that support Dante audio networking.
- Standalone licensing: The standalone build activates DVS directly on the host machine (as opposed to bundled OEM or hardware-tied options), simplifying deployment on laptops or single workstations.
