You might want to research the Strand CD80 dimmer rack; doubtful that the labor cost of re-engineering the entire rack (including controlling the fans), mounting the firing card in each module, and sending DMX to 46 dimmer modules would be the most desirable answer when the CD2000/3000 solution uses plug-in connections to simply replace the card cage.It could turn the existing dimming cabinet into a DMX512 controllable one.
My problem is I have 2 full racks of amx CD80 plus 2 racks of 0-10 volt (10 6k dimmers) for the houslights along with work light relays in same cabinets. Completed in 1986 it’s a combo analog house/digital stage lighting system. I feel half on sea and half on land.
Would be happy to do Johnson system upgrade for the cd80s, but there seems to be no easy fix/update for the houselights.

The nice thing about 0-10v is how easy it is to interface to.
I'm fairly certain there are ready made DMX to 10V decoder boards.
