Tired of going back and forth between control room, iso booth; suggestions?

As a solo "artist" in my studio, I'm tired of going back and forth between my control room and iso booth when tracking. I usually have to bring my mic into the control room to get the levels right and then take it back in. And then there's hitting the record button and running in there.
I've tried ProTransport from Far Out Labs as a device to control my rig from inside my iso booth. It's choppy and doesn't always work, so I'm not a fan (at least not yet). I know there's "ProRemote" from them that lets me see levels too but if ProTransport ($8) isn't smooth/easy, I don't want to lay out $40 or so for ProRemote.
I tried just having my laptop in the iso booth with all else (preamp, A/D interface, hard drive) on the other side of the wall (cords running through a small hole). This is ok my the laptop still has some noise (and I want to record quiet/acoustic material).
I've thought about buying an external monitor, keyboard, and mouse and just having those in the iso booth (connected via the hole in the wall), but that would cost money, of course.
I was just wondering what others in the same situation do.
Thanks.

I'll add my voice to the chorus, Tranzport. You learn how to use it fairly quickly, it uses bluetooth to connect but will go quite a ways away from the console because it has this 'antenna' to get the signal stronger and closer to your source.
Now since you also have the problem of controlling mic levels etc... the Tranzport won't control your preamp. For that I use the Universal Audio DCS. This is a piece sent from heaven. GREAT Mic preamps (2 of them) full remote control over them, AND you get to control the headphone mix in the remote control unit. The weird thing is that UA decided to discontinue it, so you might find it on eBay or somewhere for cheap. I am not sure why they discontinued it, it's a wonderful piece of gear.

  • My iphone 4 and my girlfriends seem to be sharing messages. The display shows one person typing but it is actually going back and forth between devices. Any ideas?

    We share and icloud and itunes account. But we have seperate carriers and phone numbers obviously.  She sends me a mesage and it comes through on my ipad.  I send her a message and it shows up on her phone as coming from her own number (no name is displayed, just the phone number). And the entire stream shows on her phone on the right hand side in blue as if she was doing all the typing. 
    Then a conversation I was having with another contact showed up on her phone displayed as if she was discussing.  It was not a joint message but this contact is also one of her contacts. And the name displayed at the top was the other contact.  She could join in the conversation too but her messages showed as mine.  The other contact saw all messages but they showed as coming from my email address not imessage.  I recently did the firm ware upgrade but she did not.  Her phone says there is an error when trying to locate it.
    Any messages sent to other contacts by her are only showing to the other contacts and not to me.  And they are displayed properly.
    It only started today and this has never happened before. We have both power cycled a couple times and wiped out all messages to start fresh as well.  Nothing has worked so far.
    Any ideas??

    Note that if you are sharing the same AppleID when you activated iMessage the very first time, then you are literally sharing the same iMessage account.  The primary account ID for iMessage is the AppleID used to verify the service the first time - then it associates phone numbers and email addresses as aliases to that account.
    One of you needs to create a new AppleID and use it JUST for iMessage, so you each have a separate and unique iMessage account to use.  So you can continue to share an AppleID for iTunes and iCloud and all your purchased content, just use different AppleIDs for iMessage.
    If you need another email for AppleIDs (an AppleID is literally just an email address) just grab a gmail account to use.  In iMessage, tap on the AppleID and log off, then log back in with the new AppleID and it will activate a new iMessage account using that AppleID.

  • Facetime does not log in.  Goes back and forth between two pages

    Created an entirely new Apple ID and password.  On WiFi and good speed.  Not a tech noobie.  When I open Facetime, enter username and pass, select "Sign in"  it will go to the "next" page, and display, "People will call you using your email address....., and displays the email address, with a "next" button at the top.  That page will then quickly disappear, and will go back to the original sign in page.  Nothing happens.  I have tried everything, turning Facetime on and off, resetting the iPad, etc.  Seems that lots of other folks are having problems with this app  too.  Do I need to reinstall IOS 5.0.1?  Please help.  Thanks.

    OK, it's now working.  I followed each and every step in the troubleshooting area, including making sure date and time are set properly (they were), and turning on "Set Automatically" (it wasn't), then restarting the device.  Here are the steps.
    If you encounter issues making or receiving FaceTime calls, try the following:
    Verify that FaceTime is enabled in Settings > FaceTime.
    If the issue persists or if you see the message "Waiting for Activation", try toggling FaceTime off and then on.
    If you don't see the FaceTime setting, ensure that Camera and FaceTime are not disabled in Settings > General > Restrictions.
    Verify that the date and time are set correctly:
    Tap Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Toggle Set Automatically on.
    Verify that both parties are connected to a Wi-Fi network and have an active Internet connection.You cannot make or receive FaceTime calls using a Cellular Data network connection.
    FaceTime uses push notifications to send and receive invitations. Verify push functionality using Mail or other applications that use this feature.
    Restart the device.

  • Apple TV -- going back and forth between primary and secondary library

    If have a good deal of music and pictures in the primary library of Apple TV, is there any reason why can't for a while switch to streaming additional pictures and photos from iTunes? Does the process involved in doing this act to delete materials in primary library? Understand that can't do both at once.
    Thanks.

    (Please excuse my unsupported nomenclature)
    A primary library will both sync and stream (with the exception of photos which have to be streamed). Anything in your primary library which you have not opted to sync will automatically stream, unless you have instructed it not to do so. Any content which is currently synced, which is subsequently unchecked for syncing will then be streamed.

  • Premiere CS6 and CC: any compatibility issues working back and forth between both versions?

    Hello,
    What are the compatibility issues with Premiere CS6 and CC versions?  Can the user go back and forth?  I run a computer lab at a college and we will be upgrading to CC but many students will still be using the older CS6 version of Premiere until we update all the computers....  Will students run into problems?
    Thanks,

    My concern is going back and forth between the versions...  I read somewhere there are compatibility issues with Premiere....Can the user working in CC go back to premiere CS6? and vice versa?

  • Can you move files back and forth between an iPad and a PC using iTunes?

    If I read this article correctly, http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4094 I should be able to connect my iPad to my PC, fire up iTunes and then on the Apps tab in iTunes I should be able to click on an app, Pages for example and then just drag files onto the Pages Documents column from a Windows Explorer window.
    This is great.  I was hoping to use DropBox but it is such a hassle I don't know why people are so thrilled with DropBox on iPad.  If I can just move files back and forth using iTunes that should be fairly easy.  I wish there was a way to just upload my files to iCloud from my PC but the iCloud control panel app for Windows only seems to connect Outlook, Photostream and Bookmarks. I want to be able to just carry my iPad and not have to deal with a computer. 
    I thought that they said that you didn't need to have a computer to have an iPad.  I guess if you have a computer and then GET an iPad its a different story, unless you have a Mac of course.
    Anyway my question is: can you move files back and forth between a PC and an iPad using just iTunes?

    I still need to do some trial and error testing with DropBox and my iPad.  But can I link my iPad to my DropBox account so that I can always see the files on DropBox when I open Pages on my iPad?  I just want one place to store my documents, and iCloud doesn't seem to be up to the task when it comes to opening a fil;e, editing it and then saving it back to iCloud.  I just want a networked storage location that works like a networked drive on my LAN.
    I realize that hollywood and the music industry are up in arms about file sharing on the Cloud which is why so many things are made more difficult than they need to be.

    It's clearly not impossible, just different than you expect. Create your playlist as you want it to appear in the Current tab (meaning don't dump every single song from your library in there, just the ones you want) and then save the playlist.

  • HP PhotoSmart 6525 Switching Back-and-Forth between Wireless and USB

    Hi,
    I setup my HP PhotoSmart 6525 using the "Wireless with a router" setup instructions (i.e. not Wireless Direct).  I am able to print from my laptop through the wireless network.  I would also like to be able to print from my laptop using the USB connection at times when my laptop is physically sitting next to the printer.  At times when it is not, I want to continue to be able to print wirelessly.
    Is it possible to setup the print drivers on the laptop so that I can easily switch back-and-forth between USB printing and wireless network printing?  I suspect that it may not be possible because the user guide has a section describing how to "Change from a USB connection to a wireless network" that has you click on a menu item called "Convert a USB connected printer to wireless".  There are no instructions for how to convert back to USB.  Moreover, the use of the word "convert" does not make it sound like you can maintain both print methods simultaneously on a single computer.
    Does anyone know whether it can be done, and if so how?
    Thanks in advance,
    Paul2
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hey Paul2,
    I see you have the HP Photosmart 6525 installed for Wireless printing capacity and would also like to add a USB driver so that it is available for use when near the printer.  Please follow the steps below to add a copy of the printer for USB printing.  The below steps are for Windows 7 and below based computers.  If you have Windows 8, then the steps will be slightly different so let me know.  Please let me know if you have a Mac, because I can provide those steps at that time.
    Press the Start menu of the computer
    Select All Programs
    Open the HP Folder
    Open the folder for the HP Photosmart 6520 series
    Select "Printer Setup and Software"
    Select the option to Add a new printer
    Select the USB option
    Plug the USB cable in when the software requests it and proceed through the install process
    This will leave the Wireless driver support in place and add a second printer under the Devices and Printers window for USB printing.  The USB printer may contain Copy 1 in the name as a differentiation, however the other one should also state Network in the printer name to indicate it is the wireless option.
    I hope this helps,
    Jason
