They're just used within Resolume to organise your output. Tip! Lumiverses are not a common DMX term. Also, you can quickly change between different nodes, without having to rebuild your pixel map from scratch. When it's showtime, you can then quickly assign a whole Lumiverse to the actual Art-Net node. This way, you can prepare your pixel map at home.

You use a Lumiverse to arrange and order your fixtures. Like regular DMX universes, a single universe consists of 512 channels. To do anything with DMX Fixures, first you will need to create a DMX Lumiverse.Ī DMX Lumiverse is basically a set of DMX universes, except it only exists virtually, within Resolume. Make it part of your stage design and take charge of the lights as well as the video. This means you can play your videos on low resolution LED strips or other lights that support DMX input. Resolume Arena can output the color or brightness of your pixels to LED strips or other light fixtures via DMX. If it's still not working send screenshots of the QLC input/output page (on mapping), the artnet config page, and the relevant pages in unreal and resolume and I'll see if there's anything obviously wrong with them.DMX Output is only available on Resolume Arena! What programs are you running on what machines?

You can output the same universe over both adapters from the 'mapping' section.
#Resolume 5 artnet software#
Using a loopback adapter (or the default 127.0.0.1) is needed for some pieces of software when you've got more than one program running on the same computer. Looking at the QLC artnet documentation, and with this example, in the artnet configuration set the target IP address with 255 as the last octet (or the last 3, shouldn't matter). There is no communication between input and output. It can take in universes for dmx triggers/control, and it can separately output artnet for pixel mapping fixtures (or controlling other things, if you're feeling fancy).

Thanks for the advice, which seems to always be use QLC. I'm redoing my current set in unreal 4.26 preview 2 but will post a video when I get it all up and running.

I figured that if I used local host in resolume I could switch QLC to my ethernet address, and technically I can do that and it shows up in Soundswitch, but when I do unreal can't hear on that port! Haha! I don't know. In resolume I chose local host ( 127.0.0.1). I have managed to get things working for now! I had to turn on my wifi adapter that is redundant to the ethernet network I had, and I put its input and as the input and output in QLC+.
#Resolume 5 artnet how to#
Is there a way I can have both programs listening simultaneously? I was using QLC as my artnet interface before, and I know it does artnet forwarding, but I never really understood how to use it well, and jumped on the chance to just use resolume when I saw it offered the functionality. It works well enough, but when I opened unreal to try it all together the Resolume input drops anytime unreal is listening. Thought it would be cool to sync the tint of the visuals to the color of a par via rgb dmx channels. I'm new to resolume and was trying to mess with controlling it via DMX. I'm using soundswitch to generate a lightshow and using Resolume as an artnet adapter to output DMX to unreal, as well as the visuals via NDI.
