Just out of curiosity, has anyone used one of these?

I have. It works. I might wait and get the upcoming City Theatrical DMXCat, much more functionality and wireless connectivity for a little more money. The DMXCat interface is much more friendly for multi-parameter devices.

Thanks. I saw it in a catalog and it looked interesting. Knew someone here would have hands on use!

I just saw that BMI has the DMXcat in stock, and was wondering if anybody had tried it yet.
I was also wondering how it wirelessly deals with the possibility of multiple control sources (i.e. some other joker with an iPhone hijacking my control!)?

Hi Eric, I am with City Theatrical and can answer any questions you might have about the DMXcat. For your concern once you are connected no one else can even see your DMXcat when they scan to connect to a device. Also when you start up your DMXcat it will connect to your phone automatically.

Eric,

I just saw your post so you may have already picked one up. I got my DMXcat from Light Theatrics. I had a few questions about it and when I contacted them they gave me a discount code for their website. I got it for $50 off and free shipping. I don't know what their stock is like now but it might be worth it to check them out.
