Shared and Un-Shared Devices in the Patch 
 B-IOS, owned by System #1  System #2, using shared device B-IOS 
Device B-IOS appears as an assigned device 
in the output patch of System #1 (left) and as 
a shared remote device in System #2 (right). 
When an output patch is made in either system, the corresponding I/O channel in the other system is 
colored orange to indicate that the patch is in use.  
System #1 (left): Analog line outs 6 and 8 are 
orange, indicating that those channels have 
been claimed by another system, in this case, 
System #2. Local patches are shown in green. 
System #2 (right): Analog line outs 1, 2, 4, 
and 5; headphones 2L and 2R; AES 1 and 2 
are patched by System #1, the device 
manager. Therefore, they are unavailable for 
patching by other systems.  
A manager can always disconnect an I/O channel and establish its own connection.
