Patching Shared Devices 
Patching Shared Input Devices 
When a device is shared, all of its inputs are available to all users. The shared 
device appears in the Patch window along with the non-shared devices. 
Learn how to patch in and out of the mixer, within the mixer, and between 
devices in the SoundGrid network in the next chapter, The Patch Window. 
PATCHING SHARED OUTPUT DEVICES 
Once assigned, a shared I/O device appears in the client’s Output Patch window. “IO Sharing, Remote 
Device” is shown on its icon. Patching shared I/Os follows the same conventions as patching unshared 
SOE devices. There are, however, a few considerations when sharing devices. In the example on the 
next page, the device “B-IOS” is owned by System 1 and is being shared by System 2.
