    Version 3.3 4.5. Big systems There are some limitation to consider when using the grandMA2 in big systems. Gigabit The following is exploring some of these limitations running one session in a good network. There is the general limitation regarding the parameter count: It can control a maximum of 65 536 parameters.

  • Page 38: Media Systems And Citp

    There is no universal solution that fits all and makes everyone happy. MA VPUs are made to be controlled and programmed from the grandMA2 system. Media servers from other manufactures can be integrated into the MA system. They can be controlled via direct DMX, Art-Net, sACN or other network protocols.
