Can Hog 4pc do this?

Hello -

Complete newbie here....I'm looking for dmx software that can be controlled from a DAW(Reaper or Live) via a midi track, that has a timeline or can be synced to backing tracks easily, has an FX generator and a visualizer. I've watched some of the training videos on Hog 4pc, which looks really cool, but REALLY deep...lol...can Hog 4pc do all of this?.....and would I just need the USB DMX Widget to do this? I really only need one universe....

Is Hog very cpu intensive?

Also can Hog 4pc be ran from parallels on a mac?

THANKS for any help....

    Yes Hog4pc can be be triggered via midi from reaper...
    Hog4pc cannot scrub or track forewords or backwards with Midi or LTC. It can however hit Midi or LTC jump points in any time interval that you program.

    Hog4pc has an FX engine, but it is not a FX generator that can auto generate FX based off of peaks and troughs of an analog or digital signal.

    Hog4pc does not have an included Visualizer, but can be combined with any previz software out there that will take DMX, Artnet, Hognet or sACN.

    It is not very CPU intensive, just make sure you look at the system requirements..

    If you only need one universe, then just one widget would do, although I would just buy a super widget since it's a lot more bang for your buck.

    I believe H4pc can be run on parellels, but it is better to have a dedicated machine to run ONLY H4pc from which should be a PC.
