Blue Cat's Remote Control

Blue Cat's Remote Control is a plug-in that allows you to control and monitor in real time several MIDI controllable plug-ins or devices from a single customizable user interface.

Is the user interface of your favourite plug-in is not satisfying? Your favourite hardware device is too complicated to control? Your project contains hundreds of plug-ins and you would like to control them all from a single user interface? Do you need to undo/redo all of your modifications? Would you like to instantly recall all settings of your favourite MIDI devices from your DAW projects? If so, then this product was designed for you!

With Blue Cat's Remote Control, you can choose any type of control (switches, faders, joysticks, knobs) or meter, assign a MIDI channel and CC number to each control, customize its response curve. You can also choose a built-in skin that suits your needs for every instance of the plug-in, or create your own (see the Skins section): this is the best way to create your own user interface to control your entire Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) and external hardware the way you have chosen. Since the Remote Control can also be controlled via MIDI, you can also use it to remap and transform MIDI messages, from one MIDI CC to another, with different response curves or MIDI channels.

Typical applications: MIDI remote control, MIDI CC mapping, MIDI CC values monitoring, transform automation to MIDI and MIDI to automation, custom user interface.
