Quick Start Guide

INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE

Launch Waves Central.

Click on Easy Install & Activate. Log into your Waves account. Any products that are not currently activated will appear on the list. Make sure that your DiGiGrid Desktop interface driver and SoundGrid Studio are checked, and click on the

Install & Activate button.

Restart your computer.

SOFTWARE SETUP

The ﬁrst time you launch SoundGrid Studio, the Wizard will open. The Wizard will scan the network and automatically add and conﬁgure the connected devices. If the Wizard does not start automatically, click the Start Auto Conﬁg button, which is next to the Network Port.

Choose “NEXT” to start automatic conﬁguration. This will take a few moments. Choose “CANCEL” to conﬁgure manually.

If the Wizard cannot locate your DiGiGrid Interface, then check they are turned on and connected properly. In such a case the Wizard will allow you to rescan the network or work as a Driver node slaved to another system. For more information please refer the SoundGrid Studio User Guide.

When conﬁguration is complete, close the window. If there’s still a problem, you can use the System Inventory page to assign devices, control the network, and manage clocking. To learn how to use this page, please refer to the SoundGrid Studio Application user guide.
