    ETCnomad Education Package

    Calling all lighting students and educators! Do you want your own professional yet affordable control system? We have just the answer for you: the ETCnomad Education Package. It’s an ideal foundation for students interested in lighting control.



    What does the Education Package include?

    It includes a base ETCnomad USB key (2 universes) and a Gadget II 2-universe USB to DMX/RDM interface. The tiny USB key plugs into a Windows PC, turning it into a flexible controller that runs the latest in both Hog PC and Eos family software. Start programming real lighting rigs with Hog PC right on your laptop! Experience how easy it is to get a show up and running using on screen console mimics and keyboard shortcuts, or by connecting budget-friendly MIDI panels you can configure for yourself. The ETCnomad USB Key unlocks DMX output using the Gadget II interface, and also outputs sACN and Art-Net Ethernet-based lighting protocols directly from your laptop, giving you real-world experience right at the start of your career. Programming skills learned on Hog PC translate directly to the rest of the Hog family of lighting control consoles.

    The recommended retail price for the ETCnomad Education package is $350 /350€ / £300 (+ tax), which is the usual retail price of a Gadget II.
