GarageBand - Bluetooth remote control for Sony T68i
Authored by: frankxiv on Mar 17, '04 02:20:23PM

I don't think I understand the usefulness of this hint. Why would you want or need to tell Garage Band to start or stop recording if you are in the "other room having a beer???"

What are you telling it to start or stop recording if you aren't in the room?

Am I just missing something?

Later, Frank

[Rolls eyes] I'm guessing you have never recorded original live music before....

1. The beer is essential. Inspiration. Muse. Refreshment. Guinness, preferably.

2. Any Mac with decent processing power -- and GarageBand isn't exactly light on its feet, or on the CPU(s) -- will be LOUD: fans in particular. Unless you're recording industrial goth speed metal, ambient noise is, in technical terms, bad. Hence, placing the Mac in another room is a really good idea.

So, yes, I'd say you are missing something: it's not the musician who isn't in the room -- it's that noisy Mac. A way to stop/start recording without having to get up and risk spilling your beer on your Strat or SG would be killer.

Yes hans solo , you've got it man...
we like to listen to a few iTunes over a few beers in my back room (iTunes now totally controllable with the Sony T68 & Salling Clicker...very cool!) then after a few more cleansing ales & a pipe or two, we fire up either Cubase or GarageBand & lay down some more tunes ourselves... the hassle with having to run back into the computer room , press record then run back & make the recording is now fixed with this script & Salling Clicker!...ahhhh

and good point about the noise issue....another problem solved.

youve gotta love OSX...and homebrew.
