WHAT IS THE ETCNOMAD?
LIGHTING CONTROL WHEREVER YOU WANT TO GOPPING FROM GIG TO GIG AND CAN'T BRING YOUR CONSOLE WITH YOU? DOING THE LIGHTING IN A VENUE WHOSE DESK HAS SEEN BETTER DAYS? WANT TO UNLOCK MULTIPLE PLATFORMS WITH JUST ONE DEVICE? THAT'S WHERE ETCNOMAD CONTROL COMES IN. SMALL ENOUGH TO FIT ON YOUR KEYCHAIN, THE ETCNOMAD USB PLUGS INTO YOUR COMPUTER AND OPENS UP THE POWER OF EOS, COBALT, AND HIGH END SYSTEMS' HOG 4 PC SOFTWARE, SO YOU CAN PROGRAM AND RUN SHOWS ANYWHERE.
It can serve as a primary controller, a backup, or a client device – or work offline entirely – operating on either a PC platform running Microsoft Windows® 7 or higher, or natively on a Mac running Mojave (v10.14) or later.
ETCnomad is available in a base or unlocked version. The base unit supports 1024 outputs while the unlocked version supports 6144. (Note that Eos Software 2.8.X or earlier unlocks the base at 512 rather than 1024.)
Note that without the USB key, the software functions in offline or mirror mode. The ETCnomad is upgradeable to reach maximum capacity.
