Waves SOUNDGRID Server One-C Half Rack is a compact half‑rack SoundGrid DSP server designed to offload Waves plug‑in processing from your computer. It lets you run hundreds of plug‑ins in real time for live mixing and studio work, delivering ultra‑low latency of about 0.8 ms across all supported sample rates.
The rugged all‑metal 2U chassis is only half the width of a standard 19" rack, making the One‑C both tour‑ready and easy to carry to any session. A quiet, temperature‑controlled fan, Neutrik etherCon network connector and clear status LEDs for network and temperature monitoring ensure reliable performance in demanding environments.
Waves SOUNDGRID Server One-C is powered by a modern 10th‑generation Intel CPU and 8 GB of RAM, providing plenty of DSP headroom for plug‑in‑heavy sessions. You can use it with SoundGrid audio interfaces (including DiGiGrid I/Os) or with standard ASIO/Core Audio interfaces via SoundGrid Connect, so integrating the server into existing live or studio systems is straightforward.
