What controller with input pin/triggers can run 700 tls3001 12 bit pixels

I could, and it's less than 10mtrs between them. But the way the cables are run that would be about 40mtrs of cable and I already have the network cable waiting for me. Plus, perfect excuse to get another different type of controller. I really am a glutton for punishment. I think I have one of every brand of pixel controller except Kulp and SanDevices.

Understand, I am mostly posting the suggestions for others who are reading or stumble on this thread later.

You could avoid the switch, the pixlite, the input1 all by running a cable to carry the button signals from your prop location to the show player (eg network cable could carry at least 4 buttons, potentially up to 7) but I understand that may not be what you want to do.

You could avoid even more by connecting the buttons to a Pi Zero W2 that are right next to the buttons, connecting the Pi0W2 to WIFI, and have it's GPIO inputs trigger the commands on the main player. Very simple to setup.
