Audinate has announced full availability of the Dante Application Library software development kit (SDK). The library is an SDK for PC and Mac that provides software developers with an easy-to-use access to products and solutions connected via Audinate’s Dante, including microphones, signal processors, amplifiers and loudspeakers.
‘The success of any audio software application hinges upon customers being able to easily connect to audio devices in the system they are using,’ says Audinate Senior Product Manager, Nick Mariette. ‘Dante Application Library brings Dante network functionality directly into applications, giving users access to an ecosystem of more than 3,000 Dante-enabled audio products from more than 500 manufacturers.”
Dante Application Library provides a ‘seamless, useful and robust’ solution for developers seeking to reach customers within this widely adopted ecosystem.
Developers can integrate Dante device discovery and subscriptions directly into software products for conferencing, recording, lecture capture, media playback, or other applications. Dante Application Library can simplify set-up of Unified Communications applications, allow easy deployment of software-based digital signal processors and audio utilities, streamline use of lecture and courtroom capture software, automate connections to DAW applications for recording and processing with flexible licensing.
‘Each application runs its own instance of Dante, allowing multiple applications to send and receive networked audio independently from one another,’ Mariette says. ‘The possibilities for real-time audio processing and capture are endless thanks to Dante Application Library.’

- Integration of Dante into native Windows and macOS applications.
- Full compatibility with all Dante hardware and software implementations.
