I ask mainly because I have no experience with the Hippo. Though I have heard good things. But also interested in the fate of the Axon.
The DML-1200 will use a reduced version of the Hippo v3.
The Axon isn't going anywhere and will continue its own development in the DL.3 as well.
Personally I hope this is only for the initial release/first run of the DML units.....
I am not a huge fan of the Hippo servers.....much less a reduced version of one.
Any chance that you guys will be "re-working" the fixture (mechanically as well as the server)???
I certainly hope so b/c I see several things that will be a huge pain long term with these fixtures.
Plus if you put a DL/AXON style server in there you have much more continuity across fixture lines as well as development. And for users, things like changing a shows' inventory/hang from one fixture type to another will be much easier.
Just my personal opinion.:cool:
