Waves Audio has announced the addition of dedicated MADI-ready units to its new line of SuperRack LiveBox native live processing units.

Waves’ SuperRack LiveBox enables access to the power of all your favorite studio-grade VST3 plugins, from Waves and all other manufacturers, all running natively in a simple and robust turnkey solution. The new SuperRack LiveBox MADI features unrivaled low latency, PSU redundancy, the reliable industry-standard SuperRack Performer audio plugin host, the Waves Live bundle with over 50 must-have plugins for state-of-the-art live mixing, and MADI connectivity—all in one 2U unit. The MADI I/O supports 128 channels: 64 MADI Coaxial & 64 MADI Optical.

The SuperRack LiveBox MADI unit is available to pre-order now for $6,999 USD, with shipping scheduled for August 2024. In addition, SuperRack LiveBox units with Dante connectivity, available for orders since earlier in 2024, are now shipping.

Waves has also released an updated version of SuperRack Performer software (both the version included in LiveBox, and the standalone software). The update includes Waves’ ProLink integration: a completely redesigned, forward-thinking protocol for integration with DiGiCo systems (LAWO coming soon as well). DiGiCo users will benefit from a faster, more powerful console integration of the SuperRack Performer system that includes session and snapshot integration, plugin control and tempo control.
