This thing works great. Of course there is a learning curve. Once you get it It is easy to set up and use.

We use for DJ and theater they work great..

Great product - easy to set up and works well. Customer likes having the ability to change as they need.

In the middle of my show I lost all communication with it and my show went completely sideways and the high school students was depending on me to make there show a success and it was a disaster especially for the seniors.

This product will take your DJ gigs to the next level. I knew very little about DMX and programming lights and took the leap of faith in purchasing this costly product.After spending a few hours playing with it and watching YouTube tutorials I can’t believe how easy it is to program my moving heads and Different brands of wireless par lights to do what ever I want.It also works flawlessly with different Donner system's Which was a concern of mine.I have zero regrets on my purchase and would highly suggest any DJ that consider him / herself a professional to make the investment.

For context, I knew very little about DMX lighting and programming prior to buying this bridge. For a somewhat unique project, I needed wireless control and a traditional DMX mixer wouldn't have done the job. After having learned more about available options, an ethernet/dmx bridge and wireless hub might have been a better (and cheaper) option.The main downside to this bridge is that you're (currently) locked into using the official ADJ app for iOS. The developer had indicated that they're hoping to add support for ArtNet and other protocols, which would open the hardware up to working with other, potentially more robust, solutions. The app itself is quirky, and feels very "1.0" in regards to design and workflow, but it does get the job done. I was able to patch in three different types of fixtures and run a total of 18 individual lights quickly. The even we're producing hasn't occurred yet, but will update my review if anything notable occurs while using the software for a performance.As an example of the 1.0 / quirkiness to be found: if you change the WiFi password (which is encouraged in the manual) but need to reset the custom password, you have to open the case and use jumpers to create a short on the logic board. Feasible, but not exactly user friendly. I'm hoping that ADJ will continue to support development of their app adding value in additional software updates, or open up the hardware to working with other apps like Luminair.

This has worked trouble-free for me. I use an iPad Pro to control my lights and a laptop for the music. I have had no hitches with the software controlling the lights. The controller is usually within 15 feet of my laptop. It responds instantly and eliminates a cable and I am no longer using a lighting controller (I was using two). I can pre-configure the fixtures, settings, and chases and no longer have to remember where they are programmed on the controller.I am a little concerned about the antennas in transport. They are a little flimsy the way they are attached to the box.

Love it. I have used many other hardware and software solutions before and this one is more reliable and simple to set up. Learning DMX is a challenging learning curve, but once you get the basics you can figure it out.
