Waves Audio announces Hear Technologies Dante-WSG XS, a compact Dante-to-SoundGrid bridge
InfoComm, Las Vegas, NV, June 17, 2026 — Waves Audio (booth 6453) announces the Hear Technologies Dante-WSG XS, a compact, affordable way to connect Dante® audio networks directly to Waves SoundGrid systems. The Dante-WSG XS offers a dramatically smaller footprint than previous devices, with a more accessible price point, bringing powerful Dante-to-SoundGrid integration to even more live sound, broadcast and installed audio applications.
For Waves LV1 Classic users, the Dante-WSG XS offers a compact, cost-effective way to expand and integrate their systems into Dante-based workflows. As Dante adoption continues to grow across live sound and installed audio, the Dante-WSG XS enables seamless scaling and network integration. It also provides reliable Dante connectivity for all Waves SoundGrid users, including LV1 and SuperRack systems.
Dante-WSG XS delivers the trusted low-latency audio networking performance users expect from Waves SoundGrid systems, while fitting easily into streamlined rigs and mobile setups. Supporting 64 channels of bidirectional audio between Dante and SoundGrid at 44.1-48 kHz sample rates and 32 channels at 88-96 kHz, the Dante-WSG XS provides a streamlined and dependable solution for connecting SoundGrid systems to Dante networks.
Its compact half-rack design makes it ideal for flypacks, portable production systems, houses of worship, touring engineers and compact installations where space matters. Measuring just 8.66” W x 1.64” H x 8.95” D and weighing only 3 lb., the Dante-WSG XS is easy to integrate into both mobile and fixed setups and can be conveniently mounted on a rack shelf or with optional rack-mount accessories.
