Can I use two dongles.

Post by Gordonmoore1 »

I need to upgrade our lighting system from a very basic 8 channel incandescent system. Due to our physical setup, we have two dmx cables leading out from the sound booth. Can I use two dongles on a single computer and control the lights with a single instance of Freestyle?

Nope. I'm afraid FS only supports one interface at the moment, so this isn't possible. However, you can run two interfaces from two separate computers otherwise you'll need better software.

Peace 8-)
