Aputure has released the Sidus Four CRMX/DMX lighting-control system.


Sidus Four simultaneously supports transmission of up to four CRMX universes and four wired DMX universes — and more, thanks to the ability to link multiple units together. Following the Sidus One and the Sidus Link Pro, this new combination makes the power of console-level programming available via mobile app.


Feature highlights include an array of networking protocols, including CRMX, DMX, Art-Net and sACN over EtherCon, and Sidus Bluetooth; the ability to expand from four universes to eight, 16 and beyond; color-coded UI with iconography that can be seen from a distance on a bright TFT display; an IP65 dust- and water-resistant rating; 2,620’ long-range, dual-band antennas; and a variety of power options, including a V-mount battery plate and 80-minute backup battery.


Aputure’s Sidus Link Pro takes the features of Sidus Four even further. Users can see and configure all the settings of their Sidus Four, with the ability to change output, choose the universe for each of the four wireless transmitters, send link commands to any universe, and monitor and configure lighting networks.


The Aputure Sidus Four lists for $2,490.
