Artnet Universes

Hi,
Wondering if anyone could tell me if the direct onboard art-net output of the Hog 4 range of consoles is limited by hardware of software?
I understand the Hog 4 Fullsize is capped at 16 universes and the Full Boar at 12 but wondering if there is any possibility this could be increased easily in line with other consoles in a similar price range?
With several fixture manufactures creating fixtures that have very high channel counts in full expanded mode I'm thinking this situation is only going to continue in an upward only direction.

Regards C

    Interesting, it seems you are correct about Titan mobile, that does seem a lot of native artnet for a budget solution. Their top of the range Sapphire Touch also has the same though so it seems more of an argument for expanding the Nano rather than the flagship console.
    I understand your point regarding modern fixtures requiring more channels, however I also understand manufacturers having to limit the console and sell expansion to maintain an income and I'm not sure how else they would do it. Maybe limit by fixture quantity rather than universes?
