Frontier
Design Group's new TranzPort® represents a revolutionary way to
interact with your Windows® or Mac® digital audio workstation (DAW).
Instead of being stuck in front of your computer to compose, record,
and produce music/audio, TranzPort gives you the freedom to control DAW
functions from anywhere in your studio.
TranzPort
is easy to set up and use. Right out of the box, it's compatible with
popular DAW software such as Pro Tools®, Sonar®, Logic®, Cubase®,
Digital Performer® and others. You can arm tracks, use transport
controls, set markers, control pans, punch in/out, start loops, and
more from TranzPort's simple and intuitive interface. TranzPort is a
bi-directional controller, so it also provides feedback to you on
signal levels, timecode position, track names and more, via a backlit
LCD display and LED indicators.
Unlike
infrared remotes, you don't need line-of-sight between the TranzPort
and your computer. TranzPort uses high frequency radio waves (RF) to
send and receive control data, and uses advanced coding and
frequency-hopping techniques to operate without causing interference,
even in the presence of other wireless devices.
Using TranzPort, you can
- Adjust
monitor mix settings from inside an iso booth, or easily record
instruments that are physically incompatible with your workspace
(piano, drums, etc.)
- Get creative in an environment away from
the computer (living room, lounge, etc.) without having to run back and
forth to the workstation
- Control your recording while physically removing yourself from unwanted computer noise and monitor hum
- Add a set of basic DAW controls to a second location in a studio (producer's desk, separate room, etc.)
- Remotely control your computer from onstage in live performance without messy cable runs
- And much more!
TranzPort
is small and lightweight, runs on standard AA batteries, is mountable
to a mic stand, and even has a footswitch input. As a very affordable
alternative to keyboard/mouse DAW control, TranzPort offers control
tools that will speed up your workflow.
Compatible
with Windows 2000/XP and Mac OS X (10.2.8 and above), and requiring
only one USB port for the small receiver, TranzPort is the remote DAW
control solution for everyone from personal/project studios to large
commercial recording facilities.
