Martin Professional and Multiverse Connect Module Partnership

Multiverse Connect Module on MAC Aura Raven XIP

City Theatrical and Martin Professional are proud to announce the release of the Universal Connect Module (UCM) standard, an open interface designed to simplify how lighting fixtures integrate wireless DMX when connected with City Theatrical’s multi-award winning Multiverse® Connect Module. This standard is a simple way for manufacturers to integrate advanced features and for end users to keep pace with changing production requirements.

Martin Professional has incorporated UCM slots into its MAC Viper XIP, MAC Aura Raven XIP, and new MAC Encore Two fixtures with many more to come.
