Introduction 

City 

Theatrical’s 5904 Multiverse

®

 Studio Receiver 900MHz/2.4GHz brings the advanced 

features of the Multiverse wireless DMX/RDM system to the film and video world, where fast 
setup and reliability are key objectives. The Multiverse Studio Receiver contains a long-life 
lithium-ion polymer battery giving 20 hours of use. The Multiverse Studio Receiver has a full 
four button user interface with a backlit LED display that makes setup easy and gives 
feedback on system performance.   
 
The 5904 Multiverse Studio Receiver contains two built-in radios, 2.4GHz (for worldwide use) 
and 900MHz (for use in the Americas only), which allow the user to select which single 
universe to receive, and which radio band to use via the Multiverse SHoW ID. 
 
The DMX corded connector allows the Multiverse Studio Receiver and external antenna to 
hang below the lighting fixture, giving improved data fidelity. 
 

5904 Multiverse Studio Receiver Features 

 

 

Choice Of Broadcast Radio 

Transmit and receive on either the 2.4GHz band or the 900MHz band. 
 

 

Long Life Rechargeable Battery 

20 hour battery life with default settings 
 

 

User Selectable SHoW IDs 

City Theatrical has always produced wireless DMX products that allow the user to 
select the optimum transmission method.  Users may select full bandwidth hopping, 
hopping limited to a section of the spectrum (including areas of the spectrum outside of 
the Wi-Fi range), or adaptive hopping. 

 

 

mDMX 

(Multiverse SHoW IDs only)

 

mDMX is a form of DMX optimized for wireless broadcast that dramatically reduces 
data being broadcast, thereby reducing unneeded radio energy. 

 

 

mRDM 

(Multiverse SHoW IDs only)

 

Multiverse is able to broadcast RDM information without disrupting the DMX 
broadcast. This feature is not available even in wired RDM systems. 

 

 

SHoW Key Security 

(Multiverse SHoW IDs only)

 

SHoW Key is an additional three-digit code that can be added to the Multiverse SHoW 
ID that will prevent any other system set on the same SHoW ID from interfering with 
your system. 

 

 

Forward Error Correction 

(Multiverse SHoW IDs only)

 

Allows the Receiver to detect and correct errors that may occur in the wireless 
transmission of data. 
 

 

Ultra Low Latency 

Total average system latency of 4ms. 
 

 

Adaptive Spread Spectrum Frequency Hopping  

Adaptive Spread Spectrum Frequency Hopping identifies and masks off hopping 
channels that contain interference, replacing them in the hop sequence with alternate
