Maestro Tips/Tricks - Connecting MaestroDMX into Capture

[@quest419]

Are there any cheaper DMX Adapter/Dongle options that would be suitable for this?

[@michaellakeland3799]

Hi, great video! Would I need an artnet license on the dongle or does it come with one?

No license required. the dongle receives DMX input and passes it along to QLC+ (free software). QLC+ then has a feature to merge that DMX input into ArtNet output which can then be used by Capture. You could also purchase a device to convert DMX to ArtNet without the need of the dongle/software. A device like the following would do the trick and would just need to be configured to send ArtNet data to the IP of the PC running capture. www.amazon.com/Pknight-bi-directional-Ethernet-Controller-Interface/dp/B0B1YRTYB7/ref=sr_1_1?m=AZSSLIJDOQNV3&marketplaceID=ATVPDKIKX0DER&qid=1702416139&s=merchant-items&sr=1-1&ufe=app_do%3Aamzn1.fos.18630bbb-fcbb-42f8-9767-857e17e03685

@@joedeejay9076 Thank you so much for this! I hadn't realised you'd replied so sorry for the delayed response, I've just unpacked my maestro recently and am getting into it now. Much appreciated for your advice!

I guess I need a license for capture to get the visualisations setup?
