Connect to Dirac Standalone Processor from another PC?

[Martin-Andersen]

Would like to know if it's possible to connect to the Dirac standalone processor, from another pc on the same network.

I would use my laptop for the measurements. And I have installed Dirac Live on it. Just unable to connect.

Dirac live have an option to connect to an IP address. I tried it but with now luck.

Can it be a firewall issue or is it not supported?

Setup. Music PC running win11 pro with dirac processor and roon.
The Music PC is connected to my Holo Audio May DAC

It can be done with the right tools. For example, I have been interconnecting my music Server (PC), a multichannel prepro and a multichannel DAC with multiple routings using Ravenna networking. In fact, I am planning to add another PC for independent Dirac processing.

Hello Kal, I don't if I have a similar question, but will ask anyway. I have veen using DLBC on my destop and a notebook in my 2 channel room, but also want to run it on another notebook in the HT room for 2 ch music listening.

Problem is, DL has now enforced the 2 devices limit and there is no price adder option for use on a 3rd device. Do you know if a way to run DL on my 2nd notebook PC via network? I am thinking of the old PC anywhere (you may be too young to know of that one )that used to let you run software on a remote PC so I don't know if win10/11's remote feature can do the same, with DL.

Sorry. I don't know.

Hi, reviving an old thread! I don't know if this is what you wanted, but I use a headless Windows mini pc server which has JRiver with the Dirac plugin, plus Roon to tie it all in. I even connect a turntable by using a radio streamer and connect through Roon! Just use the JRiver Wasapi as the audio out for the whole system and select it so in Roon. For audio control I use a USB Volume Knob. No need to use a screen and keyboard as I use TeamViewer to connect remotely and can control the mini pc through my laptop. It's worked pretty much flawlessly since day 1 and can even get out of the room to do the measurements!
