How about an "AP"

So we've got DPs...any thought of an ArtNet Processor?

Similar to a DP it could connect to the Hog-3 Network via switch and send multiple lines of ArtNet out...no need for all manner of 3rd party hardware converting DMX from the DP to ArtNet.

  • Well sure, pure ArtNet out of the desk would probably be a big load for it to handle.

    What I imagine is another rack mount unit similar to a DP, it could have its own processor as well, so the load is at the "AP" and the desk drives it similarly to a DP.

    It could even take the place of a DP if all you needed was ArtNet.

    Connect direct to the desk via crossover cable, or go right into a network switch along with your DPs.

    You're just changing the output protocol right?:confused:

    This way when you've got a bunch of ArtNet lines on a show you dont' have to eat up DMX space from DPs.
