You can still Record & playback audio using a SoundGrid audio interface and a DAW (without low latency or offloading capabilities) If this is what you are looking for…
In this setup, SoundGrid Studio is used simply to configure your SoundGrid audio interface to work with your DAW. You will use the ‘ Patch ’ page > Device to Device view within SoundGrid Studio to patch the inputs and outputs of your SoundGrid I/O and your DAW.
Components:
A computer running the SoundGrid Studio application, and a DAW with the Waves SoundGrid Driver (ASIO or Core Audio) selected as the playback engine
