Wholehog 3 & USB DMX?

To my knowledge Whole Hog 3 has no onboard processing ability. You will need an external DP8000 to get output

Doesn't the USB DMX widget do that? That's all Hog3PC from the same era needs.

The USB dmx widget has no processing power it's just an extra port for a processor to get physical DMX out of, like if you needed a DMX cable for universe 9 instead of ethernet

So they put a virtual DP8000 in Hog3PC for free, but not in what I'm guessing was their top of the line console at the time? wtf. Is this documented someplace I should have found it? Would a DP2000 work?

I believe when it was launched it shipped with an external DP2000 processor. I am pretty sure 3.2.0 was the last version that supported the DP2000, if you are running a later version it would require a DP8000

Disappointing, but thank you. Time to leave the hog world behind.
