I am using the Vello Freewave Fusion. I bought it at B&H Photo. Works well with my Nikon D5500 and Sunpak 555 and Sunpak 26SR.

I'm with Goofy on this one. For me, one transmitter and a receiver for each of the 4 strobes.

Jbravi I use the Phottix Odin TCU TTL Flash Trigger Transmitter for Nikon...

The Phottix Odin TCU TTL Flash Trigger Transmitter interface is nearly identical to your D750's Master CLS configuration... making for an extremely easy transition...
I use the Phottix Odin transmitter and receivers with my Nikon SB700, SB910 and Shanny SB600SN (a Nikon SB910 clone). Below is imagery taken with a Nikon D3x in HSS using Phottix Odin Transmitter and receivers driving 4 Shanny SB600SN's through a 72" parabolic. Yes this piece of kit can easily overpower direct sunlight...
Hope this helps or is at least food for thought...
I wish you well on your journey Jbravi

Are you considering a complete flash system (the lights themselves) with a built in system or one dedicated to your camera or a external set of radio triggers that you will use with you present flash units?
If it is the latter, I recommend the Pocket Wizards. I have used these since they were introduced and find them extremely reliable under constant and heavy-duty use. I find they have the longest range of any of the others that I have tried. The latest units are still comparable with the first models that I purchased.

Forget the YN setting it is a pig ..The best economic buy is the Godox X! system as you can still put a flash on the camera and its easy to set.

I use a PocketWizard Mini-TT1 on my camera and put the flash on a PocketWizard Flex-TT5. Those units support TTL metering. If you get those, download the PocketWizard Utility from their website. You connect the PocketWizard to your computer with the supplied USB cable and program it with the PocketWizard Utility.

I've recently moved to the Godox system from Yongnou (had two flashguns and one failed). I've bought an AD200 and a receiver for my Nikon SB700. The thing that I like about the Godox system is that the Godox on camera trigger is camera brand specific but the majority of the Godox flahguns have receivers that accept the signal coming from the signal whatever the brand of camera. This means that my friend who shoots Canon, who also has an AD200, and I can trigger both units using our respective Canon and Nikon on camera triggers.

I have a set (4) of Yongnuo RF 605N triggers for my Nikon Flashes (1 sb700, 2 sb600s). They cost me about $60-$70 and have been just fine going on two years under regular use. Dropped them several times. No problems. Great range, fairly well built, easy on batteries, reliable, intuitive. Manual is a waste of time. So if you already have lighting system AND you want something cheap that is fairly plug and go, you might want to consider them. NOW...if you are buying a into a "lighting system", everyone pro I know (3) uses 100% Godox and is very satisfied. Good luck.

I used pocket wizard with alien bee, sb 700, sb800 and Metz. Yes it worked but for a real photo shoot-one time- no more. I got me the flashpoint system.....
