Home of Gruntled. Go here . RemoteRecord RemoteRecord allows you to start and stop recording in Cakewalk Pro Audio from a remote location.
Operation is done using a footswitch.
It allows you to distance yourself from the computer and monitor if your instrument picks up noise, as some guitars do. Of course any recording involving a microphone will benefit from separating the mic from the computer and its noisy fans. RemoteRecord works with versions 6.x, 7.x, and now 8.x of Cakewalk Pro Audio. RemoteRecord is free. The zip file contains the program and plans to build the footswitch.
