MTRX Studio with Dante Virtual Sound Card
I’m going to replace my HDIO on the main PT HDX system with an Avid MTRX Studio. This is where it will live 99% of the time connected via the two digilink connectors to the HDX card in my Mac Pro tower.
What I’m wondering is if for occasional travel use would the MTRX Studio work as a laptop interface using just Ethernet and Dante Virtual Sound Card software? Ie no HDX card on the laptop.

Re: MTRX Studio with Dante Virtual Sound Card
The Dante virtual sound cards becomes your interface/playback engine. The MTRX is a switchbox/matrix connected where you can input the Dante and output to analog using Dadman, but it doesn't show up in Protools as your interface. That's only when connected to Protools via digilink.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong though. |

Re: MTRX Studio with Dante Virtual Sound Card
Definitely works, but DVS has higher latency (4/6/10ms) and I've had trouble getting it to work with the builtin Ethernet port of newer Macs. And it doesn't yet support Apple Silicon. But a new version is supposedly in testing...

Re: MTRX Studio with Dante Virtual Sound Card
Jeff said something about Dante interfaces not working well or maybe even not working at all with the Mac Pro 10 GbE ports and that he recommended using a usb network adapter. Kind of sad if that is the case.. how can it possibly not work with something when these are all standards!?
