Linking USB boxes together for more universes?

Hi. Is it possible to link more than one USB box to get more universes in the program? Or use more than one box at the time?

I am using the first class box, but am thinking about expanding my universes so I don't have to drag a big, extra desk when doing bigger shows.

Hi marius4560,

sure you could buy another Suite 2 FC interface and got 6 DMX universes.
Another option could be an Art-Net to DMX-convertor, Suite 2 FC can output 4 Art-Net universes.

Yes, artnet would probably be the cheapest way. Artistic licence sell some good value artnet-dmx converters
Not sure which interface you're using:
Suite2-EC : 2 artnet universes
Suite2-FC: 4 artnet universes
Suite2-FC+: unlimited (around 40) artnet universes
