The processing is done by the motherboard and SPFGA chips on the desk, and in all SD series consoles you can add a Waves card (each console has a different one) wich the console will see as additional io. A&H, Soundcraft, Presonus, Mackie, Behringer and Midas all can interface with a MR native/SG via either propietary cards or the built in firewire or usb ports. However, there is no Soundgrid or waves card for Venue consoles. V9.1 Plugins will work with those, but not the very new ones (vitamin, abbey road, etc).  I believe there is no limit to the number of racks you can set up in your session. The limit is given by the hardware you are processing them, ie computer in MR native or wich server you use in MR soundgrid. If you add another server to the network, it will become redundant server. You cannot allocate different plugins on different servers. You can, however, route differnt inputs on both madi streams to Multirack or recording/playback computers. This is very flexible.Redundancy on almost every console is very easy implemented and you don't need double licenses. You simply add another server to the network and give it another ID and the system will reconize it as redundant. On the SD7 you do need double servers and double licenses, although I'm not sure that you do have to pay twice. The few times I've used the SD7 with waves I had only one engine running, thus only one server/license.For example, I use on tour a SD8 with double Impact servers and have 23 racks and about 40 plugins on a 56 channel input list, and the performance meter on the servers gets only to 60%.Hope this helps...</blockquote>
