Hog4PC via Artnet with Widgets Question

I don't own any DMX widgets, so I was curious about the whole Artnet out on Hog4PC. I understand you have to have a Hog widget inline. Can someone elaborate as to what excactly you get? If you have a single DMX widget and a DP2K, does that mean you can only use one DMX port via Artnet on the DP2K? Does the DMX port via Artnet mirror the DMX widget or can you actually expand more universes of DMX?

  • Like Scott said and I mentioned above, and also written in the brochure:
    Art-Net/sACN Support for Hog 4PC
    Hog 4PC can output Art-net/sACN up to 8 universes. Each universe of output is enabled when a matching USB widget output is mapped and physically connected.

    Again, we should be happy about that feature and not complain. Before we didn´t even had Artnet from HOG3PC, it always took a DP8K.
    And with other brands they do exactly the same (ok, I know with Chamsys you can output Artnet for free). MA does unlock 4 universes with their PC-Wing attached, expandable to 8... Same behaviour....
