    DMX Cat

    City Theatrical's DMXcat system is designed for use by the lighting professional who is involved with the planning, installation, operation, or maintenance of theatrical and studio lighting equipment. The system consists of a small hardware interface device and a suite of mobile applications. Together, they combine to bring DMX/RDM control plus several other functionalities to the user’s smartphone for use wherever and whenever they are needed. Developed with input from designers and technicians, the DMXcat is an indispensable tool for lighting users.

    DMXcat hardware is built into every Multiverse Transmitter. This means you can now access, configure, and control your Multiverse Transmitter with the free DMXcat app. DMXcat technology means that you no longer have to touch or even be close to your Multiverse Transmitter to make changes to it. Update your current DMXcat app or download it today to connect your Multiverse Transmitter.

    DMXcat's new Multi Fixture feature includes a patch that can be implemented to group and control lighting fixtures together to save time and improve workflows. This patch also allows users to assign numbers to channels or fixtures, which can be useful in creating a consistent and simplified numbering system between creative and technical teams of a given production or installation project. DMXcat users can use the patch to save, name, and re-load setups across various rigs, for use on future projects

  • Multiverse Node 2.4Ghz
    Multiverse Node 2.4Ghz

    Each Multiverse Node is a transceiver. As a single universe transmitter, it functions in a similar plug and play manner to the Multiverse SHoW Baby and legacy SHoW DMX SHoW Baby products, and also has a full user interface, with four buttons and a backlit LCD display. As a receiver, the Multiverse Node is the primary single universe standalone receiver in the Multiverse system and can be part of a larger multi-universe setup.

    The Multiverse Node 2.4GHz contains a 2.4GHz radio and can be used worldwide.

    FEATURES

    • mDMX (Multiverse SHoW IDs only) 
      mDMX is a form of DMX optimized for wireless broadcast that dramatically reduces data being broadcast, thereby reducing unneeded radio energy.
    • mRDM (Multiverse SHoW IDs only) 
      Multiverse is able to broadcast RDM information without disrupting the DMX broadcast. This feature is not available even in wired RDM systems. (Not available on SHoW DMX Neo SHoW IDs.)
    • SHoW Key Security (Multiverse SHoW IDs only) 
      SHoW Key is an additional three-digit code that can be added to the Multiverse SHoW ID that will prevent any other system set on the same SHoW ID from interfering with your system.
    • Forward Error Correction (Multiverse SHoW IDs only) 
      Allows the Receiver to detect and correct errors that may occur in the wireless transmission of data.
    • Ultra-Low Latency 
      Total average system latency of 4ms.
    • User Selectable Adaptive Spread Spectrum Frequency Hopping 
      Adaptive Spread Spectrum Frequency Hopping identifies and masks off hopping channels that contain interference, replacing them in the hop sequence with alternate channels.
    • Adjustable Output Power 
      Sometimes an application calls for the most available broadcast power, but many entertainment systems can utilize lower output power to reduce detrimental effects on other radio systems in the venue, reduce reflections, and improve performance.
    • User Selectable SHoW IDs 
      City Theatrical has always produced wireless DMX products that allowed the user to select the optimum transmission method. Users may select full bandwidth hopping, hopping limited to a section of the spectrum (including areas of the spectrum outside of the Wi-Fi range), or adaptive hopping.
    • Protocols supported: ANSI E1.11 DMX512-A; E1.20 RDM
    • Compatible with all Multiverse and SHoW DMX Neo products
    • Users can select a single universe to receive
    • A very simple user interface to set SHoW ID and universe
    • RDM proxy and responder functions
    • DMX 5-pin in and out/thru ports
    • Rugged cast aluminium enclosure
    • Omni Broadband 900MHz/2.4GHz, 2dBi/4dBi (P/N 5902); Omni Broadband 2.4GHz, 4dBI (P/N 5903)
    • Auto-selection of transmit or receive mode
    • Firmware updatable via USB port
    • CL2 power supply with locking connector
    • Built-in auto select DMX512 termination
    • Selectable display timeout and brightness level
    • A hanging bracket for hanging from pipe or truss

  • Multiverse Show Baby 2.4Ghz
    Multiverse Show Baby 2.4Ghz
    City Theatrical’s new Multiverse® SHoW Baby® is a wireless DMX transceiver that delivers breakthrough plug and play wireless DMX and RDM transmission.
    In its default mode, it works like any other SHoW Baby 6 Transceiver, with six user selectable SHoW IDs. By connecting an RDM controller, like DMXcat® Multi Function Test Tool, all of the revolutionary new 2.4GHz Multiverse SHoW IDs are accessible.
    Right out of the box, Multiverse SHoW Baby is fully compatible with all legacy SHoW DMX SHoW Baby® systems.
    Use it to build new single universe Multiverse systems, or use Multiverse SHoW Baby as a receiver on multiple universe systems with a Multiverse Transmitter.

  • Multiverse Transmitter 2.4Ghz
    Multiverse Transmitter 2.4Ghz
    The Multiverse® Transmitter opens a new world in wireless DMX/RDM.
    Its Ethernet input allows it to take in Streaming ACN (sACN) or Art-Net and to transmit between eight and 10 user-selectable universes of DMX/RDM, depending on the type of Multiverse Transmitter product used, with the ability to use less radio energy than a present day single universe wireless DMX transmitter.
    The Multiverse Transmitter has a Bluetooth radio receiver built in that allows it to communicate with City Theatrical’s DMXcat® app from the user’s smartphone.
    This gives the user smartphone control of any lighting fixture that is part of the Multiverse setup, whether it is a lighting fixture with a Multiverse Module inside, a lighting fixture receiving its data from a Multiverse SHoW Baby or Multiverse Node, or any wired fixture downstream of those devices.
    The Multiverse Transmitter is Wi-Fi enabled, allowing for communication and control from tablet based Wi-Fi lighting controllers like Luminair.
