Axis Proton
Axis Proton is a custom-designed computer, optimized through meticulous selection of components to run Waves audio applications such as the 16-channel eMotion LV1 live mixer and SuperRack live plugin rack.
With its SoundGrid connectivity, it integrates seamlessly with SoundGrid I/Os and servers, acting as the “brain” of a SoundGrid system. Designed to perform with maximum stability, Axis Proton is optimized for use in live setups of up to 16 stereo channels.
