I am a pro audio installer who getting into control. I am would like to begin learning more on the side of creating devise drivers and more customizable systems (I can't afford to wait around for others to develop what I need.) So my question is what are some suggestions as far as a useful language to begin learning?

I know that many brands use different languages from Java to C+ and C# and I am hoping for some guidance as to what one would be the most beneficial.

I am familiar with the RTI products and a bit with the Xantech commercial line of touchpanel remotes, and have looked a bit into Stardraw Control, however I am open to other touch panel remote control options.

Thanks
MJ

You might get some helpful responses to this topic if you also post in the Crestron, RTI and the professional Pronto forums. Those forums are much more likely to have readers who know what you're talking about!

Also, don't just copy and paste this. Carefully read this out loud, and listen to the exact words:


When I saw that, I instantly went to your profile to see what nation you're in because that is not English. That made me think you were talking about something else. Maybe explicitly state in the thread titles in those other forums that you're referring to programming languages, not just languages.

If you go onto RTI's dealer website and look at their application form for getting the tools to write drivers, it asks what your experience is in specific programming languages. I'd assume those are what you'd need to know for RTI.
