In a boardroom, you might have a Dante-enabled microphone array (like Shure MXA920) and Dante-enabled speakers. Your DSP could be purely software-based (like Dante-enabled Teams or Zoom Rooms). DVS allows the conferencing PC to receive mic audio from the network and send processed audio back to the loudspeakers, all without a physical DSP box.
Under the hood, DVS converts your computer’s standard network interface card (NIC)—whether built-in Ethernet or a high-performance Thunderbolt adapter—into a Dante endpoint. It captures the audio from your application, packetizes it using the Dante protocol, and sends it across a standard IP network to any other Dante device (Yamaha console, Shure wireless mics, QSC amplifiers, or another computer running DVS). audinate virtual sound card
