Important:  If you are recording via Dante Virtual Soundcard, stop the recording before you stop Dante Virtual Soundcard. Stopping Dante Virtual Soundcard during a recording can lead to driver instability issues.

Note:  Dante Virtual Soundcard can be either on or off (running or stopped) when the Dante Virtual Soundcard Control Panel is started. It will always be in the state it was in when the Control Panel was last closed. If the computer is power cycled, Dante Virtual Soundcard will resume in the state it was in when the computer was powered off.

When Dante Virtual Soundcard is running, it will be visible in Dante Controller. By default, the device name shown in Dante Controller will be the same as the name of the computer on which it is running.

Most Dante Virtual Soundcard settings can only be changed while it is stopped.
