What is REAC?
The REAC (Roland Ethernet Audio Communication) protocol is a low latency, high quality audio transport protocol used in RSS Digital Snake and RSS V-Mixer Systems. Up to 40 channels of audio can be sent via the REAC protocol on a single CAT5e cable. REAC allows the signal to be "split" to as many positions as required such as monitor, broadcast and recording splits using the RSS S-4000-SP or any standard gigabit Ethernet switch. This protocol also allows REAC users to record 40 channels of audio into a PC on a single Ethernet connection.
What is the SONAR REAC Recording System?
The SONAR REAC Recording System when used in conjunction with REAC Systems, provides the most comprehensive live recording, mixing, mastering and delivery product available. This is the next phase in product development of the REAC driver, which Cakewalk engineered for Roland as a way for users to record from their REAC devices directly into SONAR. The SONAR REAC Recording System includes:
- SONAR 8 Producer
- REAC Technology Driver v 1.0
- Cakewalk Approved Hardware Monitoring Device
- SONAR Templates
- Users Guides
How does it work?
The REAC protocol provides up to 40 channels of audio to be sent via a single CAT5e Ethernet cable. The REAC driver, developed by Cakewalk, allows a digital split from the RSS® V-Mixer or Digital Snake Systems to be connected directly to a PC via a single Gigabit Ethernet connection. Users can record up-to 40 channels of audio being transmitted over into Cakewalk SONAR 8 Producer as discrete audio channels. A Cakewalk SPS-66 FireWire audio interface is provided as a confidence monitoring device for use during the recording process and as a professional audio interface that can also be used for the editing and mixing of the project in SONAR.
