Recently High End Systems released a software update and a number of new products to their range which are available to order and ready to ship early-mid November.

HPU - The HPU replaces both the DMX Processor 8000 (DP8K) unit and the Rack Hog 4 in a modern, 2U rack mounted unit. This processor can be run in either Rack Hog 4 mode with a 16 universe capacity, or in Processor mode with a 64 universe capacity.

Road Hog 4-21 - A familiar favourite has received an update. The Road Hog 4-21 now features a new motherboard and a 21.5" 10-point touch screen. The console also now includes dual display port connections for up to two external monitors or touch screens.

HedgeHog 4X - The HedgeHog 4X is now the sole member of the HedgeHog product range, with the complete networking capabilities of the Hog 4. It has dual display port connections for up to two external monitors or touch screens and six universes of output.

Hog 4 OS v3.14 - This Software includes several advancements in functionality in addition to bug fixes. A new patching structure allows users to patch to internal universes, which then get mapped to outputs on consoles, DP8Ks, Widgets and Gadget II units, sACN and/or ArtNet. Individual patch universes may be mapped to multiple outputs as needed and can be moved from one output to another without universe cloning.

Adjusted keyboard shortcuts include additional mappings to make programmable USB keyboards function more smoothly. Finally, OSC/MIDI control of faders and encoders for everyone - the requirement to have matching hardware to enable OSC/MIDI control of faders and encoders has been lifted for all consoles with HogNet and Hog 4 PC with or without any ETCnomad dongle.
