Dustin- your helpful comments along the way during each video (shortcuts, things to avoid etc.) were very helpful. So much easier to understand than class in Rockleigh NJ. I suppose it's the fact that we can stop and go back and benefit from your real world experience. Hope to see more content moving forward.

Very Helpful

Colbee, training client

Dustin, your help has been excellent. I learned a lot from you – even though we only talked a few times. I may call on you for your help again – who knows – and I don’t mind spending money on good help. Thanks again and good luck with everything.

Great Resource

John, Facebook Page Subscriber

Dustin! The website, videos, and blog are all coming together and look great! To everyone that comes through, reads this, and is looking for additional information, knowledge, and foresight into the world of audio visual programming, you have found a fantastic individual and great resource.

Built first System!

Gerald, YouTube Subsciber

The material you have provided at the Pro AV School You Tube Channel is Gold. I was able to build a test conference room from some surplus gear we had. (DMPS-300-C, 2x RMC-100-C, MPS-200, TPMC-8X, iPad+Mobil G app). Ever since I cobbled together that room using the MPS-200, it has been an addictive process to see what these controllers can do.

FAQ

  • Could I do this course at my own pace.... and time...?

    Absolutely! All the videos are pre-recorded and you can log into the portal and go through them as you have time.

  • How Long Do I Have Access to the course?

    The login doesn't expire so you have as much time as you need and can go back later to review things.
