I started visual Astro about 2016. Moved to EAA later that year (could figure out why I couldn't see colour visually - dooh). Within 3 years I was doing AP (but still doing EAA).
To me, AP was like an extension of EAA. Except - now use guiding, longer exposures (EAA was between 10-30sec), different software (not sharpcap, astrotoaster) and post processing is way more involved (which I enjoy). I use the same scopes as I did for EAA, but have a better mount (do not scoff at my CGEM!).
You can try processing your sharpcap individual images, or stacked image. I started with this, but .... You'll be wanting more.
As for combining different rigs - I don't know how or why. People with monochrome cameras used to image the colour part at a lower resolution (binning) to reduce noise? But that's before my time
All good fun Chris
