Why Choose Focusrite REDNET 1 Dante Audio Interface?

Networked audio is about flexibility. A RedNet 1 in each room means microphones, instruments and monitors can be routed from software instead of re-patched, and the whole system can grow by adding units rather than rewiring.

Key Features

• 8 analogue inputs and outputs: eight electronically balanced inputs and outputs on DB25 connectors.
• Dante networking: audio over standard Ethernet with JetPLL clocking for stable timing.
• Up to 192 kHz: 24-bit conversion at sample rates up to 192 kHz.
• 119 dB dynamic range: high-quality conversion that suits professional recording and broadcast.
• Selectable reference level: 0 dBFS equals +18 dBu or +24 dBu to match studio or broadcast levels.

Best Suited For

Studios, broadcast facilities and live venues building or extending a Dante network with analogue sources and destinations. That is the buyer the Focusrite REDNET 1 Dante Audio Interface is built for.

Setup and Connection Guide

Connect the unit to the Dante network switch, wire the DB25 analogue I/O to the patchbay or wall box, select the reference level for the facility, and route channels in Dante Controller before assigning them in the DAW or console. Once connected, the Focusrite REDNET 1 Dante Audio Interface is ready for its first session.
