High End Systems Road Hog 4 Lighting Console

The most cost-effective Hog ever, the Road Hog 4-21 strikes the perfect balance between performance and economy. The programming interface remains familiar, and the ergonomics of the console’s compact chassis are unparalleled, while the shared Hog software environment lets the user transition across the whole range without sacrificing workflow.

Programmers will love the 21.5”, high-resolution display providing ample space for customized screen layouts with one additional video output. Four on-board DMX universes drive the rig, and two gigabit Ethernet ports are provided for Art-Net, sACN and console networking. This Hog packs an enormous punch!
