Looks like I'll be doing some regular work in another local college theatre/PAC, built *just* before the pandemic, and now finally launching.
Aside from the Ion xe20 (which I largely know how to run) and the Yamaha QL5 (which was enough like my LS9, that I know how to run it, now), the centerpiece here is Extron, a name which doesn't strike fear into as *many* hearts as Crestron, but certainly enough.
We have an IPCP, a 16x16 AV switcher, a bunch of Extron's equivalent to HDbaseT remote boxes, and half a dozen wall and desk panels. And LOTS of really big TVs mounted everywhere; they spent about $18M on the place, I'm told.
So I'm going to be interested in pointers, if anybody has any, about how to get the Extron macro programming to talk to the Ion, the Yamaha, our Paradigm houselights, and probably some Zigbee/Z-wave if I can talk everyone into what I want to.
