Waves SOUNDGRID DSPRO StageGrid 1000 is a compact SoundGrid stagebox / I/O unit designed for eMotion LV1 live mixing systems. It is perfect for placing near your console at FOH or in the monitor world, or on stage when you need high‑quality inputs and outputs within the Waves SoundGrid network at ultra‑low latency.
StageGrid 1000 provides 8 premium mic/line analog inputs, 4 balanced XLR line outputs, a stereo AES/EBU input and output, plus 2 independent headphone outputs with their own volume controls. Operating at sample rates from 44.1 to 96 kHz, it connects via a gigabit SoundGrid Ethernet port (Neutrik EtherCON) and shares the same proven audio interface design as the larger DSPRO StageGrid 4000, while remaining a 1U rackmount unit.
The rugged, road‑ready construction of the DSPRO StageGrid 1000 makes it ideal for touring and fixed installations alike. Fully compatible with the Waves SoundGrid ecosystem, it serves as a flexible I/O node at FOH, for monitor systems, on stage, or in hybrid setups together with Waves servers and plug‑ins running in real time.
