Back in the days when I didn't know too much about lighting and I was a mindless board op a designer I worked with used the
theatre's
ETC express for the conventional lighting and then HOG 3 PC to run our intelligents. He used a
DMX USB converter but it wasn't the hog widget (which runs about $1,200). As a high school student I can't afford the widget but I would love to use the Hog 3 PC software to control some of the new fixtures at my school. The software is free but does anyone know of a cheaper way to use the HOG 3 PC so send out a DMX signal?
