Ether2DMX8 – Why do you need it?

Today’s shows and installations require thousands

of DMX channels. And with the increased use of

LED fixtures and video mapping, it is now
mandatory to have fast DMX response and
proper network load management.

With its fast processor and unicast Artnet mode,

the Ether2DMX8 ensures instant response and

lower network load.

Ether2DMX8 – Fast and Synched

One of the most serious issues faced with large systems is the synchronization between

universes on the same EtherDMX device, and even more important is the synch

between devices. A lot of attention has been placed on this and through some clever
algorithms our engineers have found a way to achieve synchronicity between each
DMX frame.
