So as i continue to work and try to find new ways to set up a system one thing i have never really used much of is opto splitters, mainly ive just used dmx straight out of the console or networked through a switch with various nodes. my question is if I was to use an opoto out of my console how does it work for the patch. Obviously the idea is that you run a universe out and it runs from universe A for example to a series of moving lights, dimmer rack, leds etc. That universe is obviously patched for whats in the chain, when you add an opto i understand how it can best the signal after a certain length but how does it work in the patch as there is i in and 6 out and usually the outs are going to different devices. trying to understand how this all works since it seems like a less expensive/ efficient way to utilize information out of the console.
