Ron Scelza Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 Remote roll using Macbook or Ibook with recording programs: Dear All, Is anyone using Boom Recorder, Metacorder on a Macbook with a remote -- (pickle), or a MotuTraveler foot pedal? Any other tested remote control device or interface designed for Macbook or Ibook to work with recording software?

Darren Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 I remote roll Metacorder using MMC (midi machine control) from my Yamaha 01V96 mixer. This is my standard way of rolling/stopping with Metacorder. -Darren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Scelza Posted July 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 Dear Darren, Thank you for the MMC tip, The MMC will keep a few people in thier chair maybe me too. I’m hopeful that this discussion will offer many options. -- Just posted on RAMPS -- “Frogboard†$149.00. In anticipation of having to make the right decision. Following is an axiom and a measuring indicator to determine the relationship between the amount time spent in your chair vs. the cost of a device. (1). Buck Limiter Axiom = Eight pennies can be found in every nickel, understood by most producers. (2). Drop Ass Chair Indicator = (undetermined) Sincerely Ron Scelza http://ronscelzasoundrecording.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 I forgot to mention... I have an additional Remote for Metacorder as well. It is fairly small, lightweight, cost effective, and extremely versatile. And it will run for months on rechargeable AA batteries. It will allow you roll, stop, play back, change your metadata, arm tracks, and much, much more! It's a bluetooth keyboard! I have two. One is from Apple, I think it was around $60. The other one was around $100 but it is VERY compact. It is a Think Outside "Stowaway". http://www.thinkoutside.com/stowawaybt_product.html Pictures of the Apple one on my cart can be found in the pictures section of this web board. Cheers! Darren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Posted October 28, 2006 Report Share Posted October 28, 2006 Also forgot to mention the Tranzport. Support for the Tranzport is built right into Metacorder. It is supposed to work with most DAWs. It can be used as a remote for your software via cable or Bluetooth.

takev Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 Hi, So I was playing a bit with the new Apple Remote that you get with all the new Apples and I thought that would be a nice thing to use for remote roll. Anyway I implemented it, but I have to update the manual for it. You can get a preview at: http://www.vosgames.nl/downloads/BoomRecorder-7.17.dmg The play/pause buttons toggles the recording. The next and prev buttons will select the scene from the scene list (and resets the take field). Cheers, Take Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramsay Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 It works Take! Can I roll from my home if I'm too tired to go in?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takev Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 Hello Patrick, It works Take! Can I roll from my home if I'm too tired to go in?? There are a couple of options for that, yes. Although I think you want someone there to put on the microphones and swing a boom around. Cheers, Take Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
