Multiverse® Wireless DMX in Two New ETC Products
After a decade of research, something brilliant launched yesterday: ETC’s Source Four LED Series 3 and Desire Fresnel light fixtures, which are already setting standards that are far from standard.

Both fixtures feature City Theatrical’s Multiverse® protocol for integrated wireless DMX/RDM, and can be easily configured using ETC’s Set Light app via both NFC and a Multiverse Transmitter. These fixtures provide the brightness you need, the color you’ve been craving, and the control you deserve for the most efficient workflow.

Luke Delwiche
“Multiverse was the obvious choice for these new, state-of-the-art fixtures. We wanted to ensure that their wireless DMX capabilities would be scalable, reliable, and easy to incorporate into venues and rigs of any size – Multiverse delivers on this promise. Look for more and more ETC fixtures with native Multiverse support.”

QolorFLEX Multiverse Dimmers at Peery's Egyptian Theater in Ogden, Utah
As part of a lighting renovation project at Peery’s Egyptian Theater in Ogden, Utah, the design and installation teams were looking to install a reliable wireless DMX system that would allow them to add DMX controllable fixtures, like LED Tape, in otherwise impossible locations in the theatre, like faux windows and grills. They wanted those new fixtures and LED tapes to be similarly lit to the theater's original color accent system, but provide brighter light and more color control. Learn how they used 23 QolorFLEX® 5x2.5A Multiverse Dimmers (P/N 5942), 8 reels of QolorFLEX® 5-in-1 RGBACW LED Tape, one Multiverse® Transmitter (P/N 5910), and a custom made harness to realize their vision at the theater.
“QolorFLEX and Multiverse products were chosen due to the nature of utilizing a system of components that are cohesive and known to work well together. In the opinion of much of the team taking on this project, City Theatrical is the industry leader of wireless DMX. Our prior experience using SHoW Baby devices has shown reliability and responsive wireless DMX.”
