Hear Technologies Dante-WSG XS
he Hear Technologies Dante-WSG XS is a compact half-rack interface that bridges Dante™ and SoundGrid® networks, enabling seamless integration between Dante systems and Waves eMotion LV1 mixers or SuperRack systems. Supporting up to 64 channels of bidirectional audio, it provides a simple, reliable way to connect SoundGrid-based workflows to Dante infrastructures in live sound, broadcast, and installed audio environments.
Designed for portability and deployment flexibility, the Dante-WSG XS delivers the same Dante-to-SoundGrid functionality as previous bridges, in a unit that is half the size (half-rack 1U) and half the weight (only 3 lbs).
Whether you're adding Dante connectivity to an eMotion LV1 system or integrating SuperRack plugin processing into a Dante-based setup, the Dante-WSG XS makes it easy to connect, route, and manage audio between both ecosystems.
