# AudioGridder
AudioGridder is a network bridge for audio and MIDI that allows for offloading
the DSP processing of audio plugins to remote computers running macOS or
Windows. This can come in handy when mixing complex projects or running CPU
intensive instruments for instance. AudioGridder comes with a plugin and a
server and supports VST2, VST3 and AudioUnit plugin formats. Plugins can be
hosted and accessed across the network: simply run the AudioGridder server on a
remote machine and connect your DAW using the AudioGridder plugin. This allows
you to add remote insert chains or instruments into your DAW's signal paths. The
DSP code of the loaded remote plugins will be executed on the remote machine and
the remote plugin UI's will be streamed over the wire. With AudioGridder you get
an experience very close to hosting the plugins directly in your DAW but not
using your local CPU.
