HOG 4 OS 3.5.0 OFFERS NEW FEATURES AND ENHANCEMENTS

High End Systems has released its latest OS for Hog 4 lighting consoles. Hog 4 OS 3.5.0 offers new features and enhancements for the platform’s wide user base; the company is also touting new features in development for release in the near future.

Hog 4 OS v3.5.0 fully supports compound fixtures providing easy scheduling and patching along with communicating directly with several video matrix switcher products over Ethernet. This allows smaller productions to control video equipment directly from a lighting console without the need for additional control systems or operators.

Hog 4 OS supports a number of series like Barco MatrixPro-II SD/HD/3G-SDI, Blackmagic Smart VideoHub, Lightware MX and the AJA KUMO 16x16 series switchers.

Jonathan Kemble, Control Systems Software Manager, High End Systems said, “We are building further on this incredibly powerful and intuitive platform making Hog users ever more productive and creative. With no less than nine major new features in development, we are proving our commitment to make Hog the most competitive and versatile control system in the world.”

Jeff Pelzl, General Manager at High End Systems said, “High End Systems is pleased to offer our dealers and user base increasingly powerful versions of our Hog 4 software. The new features we will be unveiling promise to make the Hog platform an even more popular and full featured platform for leading lighting designers, programmers and operators.”
