Overview

The Response Show Control Gateways are a family of reliable, portable devices that let your Eos or Hog4 family console communicate with MIDI, SMPTE, Serial or other third party devices.

The Response MIDI Gateway can send and receive info in all flavors of MIDI: Note, Show Control (MSC), and Time Code (MTC). The Gateway also translates MIDI to and from UDP for ultimate integration with ETC and third-party products.

The Response SMPTE Gateway brings SMPTE LTC timecode signal to your Eos or Hog4 family console reliably to make sure everything stays on track. The Response Serial Gateway ensures reliable bi-directional RS-232 data communication for system integration.

The Response Analog IO Gateway is the ultimate integration aid. With 12 analog inputs and 12 relay outputs, it has the power to integrate with a large selection of devices using industry-standard protocols including UDP, ACN, and sACN. In addition to third-party integration it speaks natively to Eos consoles, Unison Paradigm, and Unison Mosaic control systems.
