dogcop Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 greetings one and all I have in my possession two 6 10amp channel beta packs made by zero88.They are at this time being run by a prehistoric analogue desk which has really seen better days. we are in the process of buying a DMX desk. Is there a gizmo (technical term) which can be put into the beta packs to make it compatible with a DMX signal or is it a case of buying new DMX dimmers - if so which ones would the esteemed panel suggest for running par 64's and a couple of blinders as ever remaining your humble servant Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fleeting Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Hiya, There are two companies that do de-multiplex boxes that I know of. Zero 88 do a demux 24 a DMX to 24 channels of analogue control for about £360.00. The other is pulsar they do a 18 channel DMX/rs232/MIDI to analogue for around the £230.00. THe pulsar unit will need to have the connection leads modified as they don't wire there control the same as most of the other manufactures. Hope this helps Fleeting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robloxley Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Speak to Zero88 as to whether they have any internal DMX conversion cards left for the early betapacks also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard_cooper Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 I've had one of these for a year or so now and it's been fine. It's pretty much identical to the Strand S72 demux which could be another option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
