Looking to add more SoundGrid Servers to your Waves eMotion LV1 Classic mixer? In this video, I’ll show you how to add external Waves SoundGrid servers—even though the eMotion LV1 Classic already comes packed with a powerful built-in server. We’ll walk through connecting additional servers, configuring SoundGrid settings for maximum plugin processing power, and ensuring smooth, stable performance. If you’ve been looking for a way to handle larger channel counts, extra DSP headroom, or just want some good old-fashioned redundancy, this tutorial has you covered!
