City Theatrical LDI Show 2025 Preview

DMXcat-E is an addition to City Theatrical's multi award winning DMXcat Multi Function Test Tool system of solutions that allows for Ethernet control of a lighting fixture.

City Theatrical and Environmental Lights will be exhibiting together, demonstrating new lighting technology in Booth #1903 at the LDI Show 2025, held at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, from December 7 to 9.

Product demonstrations include City Theatrical's new DMXcat-E, the return of Candle Lite Unlimited Flicker Candle with a new LED upgrade, Multiverse Connect Module as part of the family of Multiverse wireless DMX/RDM solutions, as well as City Theatrical's expansive beam control and hardware collections. City Theatrical will also be offering an LDI 2025 event giveaway of one free DMXcat-E device, to one randomly selected event participant who registers with the City Theatrical team in Booth #1903 before the event concludes. The winner will be announced via email one week after the show.

DMXcat-E is an addition to City Theatrical's multi award winning DMXcat Multi Function Test Tool system of solutions that allows for Ethernet control of a lighting fixture. In addition to all the functions DMXcat users currently enjoy, including utilization of the DMXcat free smartphone application for iPhone and Android to plan, install, operate, and maintain theatrical and studio lighting equipment, DMXcat-E allows users to view and send Ethernet protocols, including ArtNet and Streaming ACN (sACN).

DMXcat-E users can download or update their DMXcat smartphone app from the App Store or Google Play to start using five new apps in the DMXcat suite when connected with a DMXcat-E device, including: Timecode app, MIDI app, Ethernet app, Cable Testing app, and PoE Testing app. Learn more in City Theatrical's DMXcat-E overview video at: www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsU3bWz2EqU&list=PLB3OteiEHRlwsJzMuROX5Oz-_upCXdIC8&index=1&t=4s.

Candle Lite Unlimited Flicker Candle is back by popular demand and now in stock for immediate order. The original incandescent Candle Lite models were a long-time favorite among designers and prop teams. They've now been upgraded to LED, keeping the same flicker effect while improving efficiency and durability, the company says.

Winner of LDI Show 2023's Best Debuting Product Award in the Lighting Controls Category and ABTT Theatre Show's Lighting Product of the Year, City Theatrical's Multiverse Connect Module is a small device that brings all the capabilities of Multiverse wireless DMX/RDM to a lighting fixture built by an OEM manufacturing partner of City Theatrical, such that the fixture, such as Martin Professional's MAC Viper XIP, has a Multiverse plug built into it. The chassis of the device plugs into the fixture, and with a few menu changes on the fixture, it becomes wireless using the Multiverse Connect Module. Multiverse Connect Modules are Multiverse wireless DMX/RDM receivers encased in ABS plastic. The 2.4GHz model uses the 2dBi Indoor Omni Antenna, 2.3" as used in Multiverse SHoW Baby devices, and the 900MHz model uses the 2dBi/4dBi Omni Broadband Antenna (P/N 5980), as used in Multiverse Transmitter and Multiverse Node devices. Multiverse Connect Modules include seamless RDM integration and can be configured through host fixture UI/RDM. The Multiverse Connect Module uses a USB Type-C Plug connector, runs on 5VDC, and is IP64 rated.

Other City Theatrical demonstrations at LDI Show 2025 will include award-winning Multiverse wireless DMX/RDM technology. The Multiverse system can deliver more data while reducing the amount of radio energy required for wireless DMX by as much as 90%, enabling scalability never possible before for entertainment lighting installations. Multiverse wireless DMX/RDM technology is currently offered in a range of City Theatrical solutions, including the Multiverse Studio Kit that provides all the tools needed to quickly plan, setup, and operate wireless DMX/RDM on a film & video set, as well as onboard wireless DMX technology native to many current and future ETC brand light fixtures as part of an OEM manufacturing partnership.
