Hi All,  
Looking for options and feedback on what others are doing for interoperability with MADI and/or DANTE??

To connect with MADi i use a Digigrid MGB. No issues, gives you 128 channels each direction @48k. No SRC though.

AFAIK the only device doing direct Soundgrid-to-Dante is the Hearsafe WSG bridge ([https://www.waves.com/hardware/hear-technologies-wsg-bridge](https://www.waves.com/hardware/hear-technologies-wsg-bridge)). I think the next best option is to go WSG-MADI and then MADI-Dante.

I have to correct myself: the Yamaha RSio64-D with some WSG-Y16v2/v3 can do Soundgrid-to-Dante too.

While quite a bit more expensive, the Digico Orange Box with Waves and Dante or MADI cards will work.

A bit late, but worth mentioning as another option is IMO the EXBOX.SG from directout, it can do Soundgrid to MADI ([https://www.directout.eu/product/exbox-sg/](https://www.directout.eu/product/exbox-sg/)). Their Prodigy line is an even more versatile product with multiple I/O options including SRC and DSP processing, a bit more costly though ([https://www.directout.eu/product-category/devices/](https://www.directout.eu/product-category/devices/)).
