V-Stack

V-STACK
4 – 36 Setting up your system
Requirements
The following equipment is required for VST System Link operation
with V-STACK:
• One computer running V-STACK.
• At least one other computer running a VST System Link compatible
application (e.g. Cubase SX, Cubase 5.2s or Nuendo 1.6 or later).
The computers can be of the same type or use different operating systems. For exam-
ple, you can link an Intel-based PC to an Apple Macintosh without problems.
• Each computer must have audio hardware with specific ASIO drivers,
installed and working.
• The audio hardware must have digital inputs and outputs.
Of course, to be able to connect the computers the digital connections must be com-
patible (i.e. the same digital formats and connection types must be available).
• At least one digital audio cable for each computer in the network.
• To be able to hear the audio, one of the computers needs to have
more than one physical set of audio outputs.
When using V-STACK with e.g. Cubase SX, you would typically want the Cubase SX
computer to have one set of outputs (digital) connected to the V-STACK computer via
VSL and another set of outputs (analog or digital) connected to your listening equipment.
