  • [QUOTE=MLorenz;61969]I would go for the solution with the 2 x DP8000

    Then you can use your other 2 RHFB for other stuff, or as backups etc

    Also cabling would be easier: just 1 network-cable to your control/dimmer-room and up to your pods with 5-pin XLR

    Other solution would mean from FoH: 12 x 5-pin XLR or all 36 x 5-pin XLR, 2 Networkswitches at console-position, 2 or 3 Artnet-Nodes.

    Yep for sure, i hear you on the cabling thing, I am over running miles of DMX back to the desk, we do not currently own a DP8 and sometimes we have 8 x universes back to the desk with a superwidget. 1 x CAT6 with ethercon connectors sounds good to me.. By USB-Extender do you mean Superwidget??

    Thanks heaps for ya help on this..
