WAVES Proton Duo

WAVES Proton Duo in stock and available to buy now from Nifty Audio, the UK’s exclusive Waves and DiGiGrid distributor.

The Most Compact and Portable Waves Processing System Yet

The Proton Duo combines a Waves Proton SoundGrid server, an Axis Proton customized computer, and a built-in network switch all in one slim, elegant unit. For the first time, you can add plugin processing power and run Waves applications like eMotion LV1 or SuperRack from a single compact device, rather than using two separate units.

Preconfigured, prewired, and ready to use straight out of the box, Proton Duo is built for speed and simplicity. Just connect it to your SoundGrid I/O, and you’re ready to mix anytime, anywhere with Waves’ world-class plugins.

In addition to providing powerful DSP processing, Proton Duo is optimized to run a 16-channel eMotion LV1 live mixer or the 16-channel SuperRack SoundGrid plugin host. With server, computer, and switch combined, it delivers exceptional portability and ease of use all in a half-rack, carry-on-sized form factor.
