1 Multiple OmniControllers can be used to control multi-axis rigs and can be synchronized, but it is a bit time consuming and less convenient than using Evolution.
2 DitoGear™ Trito allows to control up to 3 axes at once with 3-axis joystick for live-action shooting. It’s ideal for controlling OmniSlider + OmniHead combo.
