The Dante SDK, Connect Edition provides everything needed to build Dante into your cloud-based software application. By using the Dante SDK, you gain the ability to easily send and receive audio signals in uncompressed Dante format to any Dante device or software application.
When using the Dante SDK, you enable the connection of thousands of existing-on premise Dante devices to your cloud-based software. Over 4000 devices from 600+ manufacturers include Dante for audio transmission. When customers license Dante Connect, these devices can be easily connected to your application for audio transmission, processing and production output.
By using the Dante SDK, your application joins the growing suite of cloud-based applications that enable production flexibility for a demanding customer base. As customers demand more flexibility in the use of their existing hardware, cloud-based tools are well-positioned to enhance productivity.
Existing cloud-based applications that support Dante natively through the SDK, and applications that connect using cloud-based Dante Virtual Soundcard include:

When you utilize Dante SDK, Connect Edition, the licensing costs are carried by the end customer. When a customer licenses Dante Connect from Audinate, the Dante signal transmission is enabled in your software product, without cost to you, the developer.
Customers have options when selecting how audio is transmitted, mixed and output in their productions. Competing audio solutions require complex muxing of audio with various video streams in productions. By using Dante Connect, audio professionals gain the flexibility to transmit and produce audio independently before downstream integration into final output.
Using the Dante SDK, your product gains access to Dante audio streams from over 5M Dante-enabled products deployed in the market. Your application can accept up to 256×256 channels of bidirectional audio at 48kHz with support for PTP-based precision clocking.
Any software application using the SDK will be compatible with all Dante-enabled devices, software implementations, and with Dante Controller and Dante Domain Manager. The SDK allows you to validate your own designs for performance and capability, ensuring solid reliability for end users.
Developers looking to integrate Dante into their applications will find a rewarding experience with the following high-level requirements:
