This question is pretty much directed to anyone who has experience with the Yamaha CL, or QL series mixing console, the Rio 1608-D or similar, Dante Controller, Remote R, CL Editor, StageMix, Dante Virtual Soundcard, and Dante networking over wired and wireless networks.
For the past few days, I've been trying to network all that mess together to one end: I want complete wireless control over my Yamaha CL1 and my three Rio 1608-D's, using either StageMix (when I'm on the stage using my iPad), or Dante Controller, CL Editor, and Remote R (when I'm sitting down in the house with my windows laptop).
I also use Dante Virtual Soundcard, which requires a wired Ethernet connection to the Dante network (I drop a cable down from the booth during tech week for that).
Now, all of this is connected to a 4-port wireless Belkin router which is shared with our Ion light board, so our LD can control the board from his Android. If I should keep all my sound traffic on a separate router, that's okay with me.
So far, I've been almost successful with getting every program to talk with every piece of hardware on my subnet by using static IP addresses for the Rio's, but I can't seem to set a static Dante IP for the CL1 itself. It seems to have three separate IP addresses, one for networked remote control, like StageMix, another for remote head amp control, and the last one for the actual Dante network interface.
I've tried using Dante Controller to set a static IP for the CL1, like I did with my Rio's, but it doesn't seem to work.
Has anyone successfully set up a control scheme like I'm trying to do? Is my approach incorrect? I want all my software to be able to see all my devices over wi-fi, but also be able to seamlessly switch over to wired when I have to use Dante Virtual Soundcard and still have control over my hardware.
