My studio setup I have mix of many systems.
I have some number of super-cheap Neewer 300W strobes (AC only), I have another battery powered Neewer (Flashpoint brand, but it's actually Neewer), and I have 2 of the Flashpoint AD200. That Neewer-Flashpoint is using different remote than the R2-AD200 remote.
Usually I just trigger the AD200, and everything else is in optical slave so they'll follow in manual mode. Since it's studio setup, easy to modify powers manually when setting up, and then just keep shooting.
I did some experiment on the 2 different trigger systems, and I found out I can trick them to be used. I also have 4 of the yongnuo 622 triggers, originally bought for my speedlites.
So if I want to use the Neewer-Flashpoint and the AD200 on remote (for example can't use optical slave due to other photographers or too bright sunlight), they Yongnuo and R2 can be physically stacked but they don't work correctly. However, I can mount just the Yongnuo on camera, then mount the R2 on another Yongnuo, and that'll trigger everything correctly.
