I met up with Joe De Max at NAB 2024 to talk Central Control. He showed me two great new things that will improve remote workstation control from X-Keys and Central Control Link.

X-Keys Bundle

This is a multi-button unit running Central Control from inside the device. The end result makes this a stand-alone unit. Once you program the keys, you can simply take the board with you – no computer necessary.

The main device he had at the booth was a standard panel switch with buttons and a T-bar. Since X-Keys are customizable, you can create it however you need to with buttons, jog wheels, and more.

The Bundle is running an Orange Pi inside for control. You can pair it up with your ATEM Mini, vMix, Hyperdeck, and many other devices. Once paired, the keyboard will control the device via the LAN.

Central Control Link

Joe also announced Link – a way to pair your controller via NDI within the software. What this means is you can have a switching console – from X-Keys, to Stream Deck, to another controller – on one side of the room, and through NDI, you can set up to control the devices across the room.

If you set up a portal, you could even remote control a device from another location.

Link is new, and will be out around May. For more information, check out CentralControl.io
