Remote controls let you control all of FreeStyle's transport controls and recording features from your MIDI keyboard. They are designed so that you can record an entire song from start to finish without ever touching your Macintosh. You can assign a FreeStyle command to any key on your MIDI keyboard. In order to use the key as a remote control, you first hold down a command trigger so FreeStyle knows you are not just playing a note. The trigger can be a single controller, such as a foot pedal, or it can be a “clump” of keys that you would never want to play simultaneously while recording. You can smoothly switch between recording and “remote controlling” FreeStyle by pressing and releasing the trigger keys. For information on specific features within the Remote Controls window, use balloon help.
