Tranzport Demo: May 25, 2007

 

 

The TranzPort control surface makes Cakewalk SONAR version 4 and later even easier to use! Its intuitive layout allows your creativity to flow freely. All

the critical controls for tracking are right at your fingertips, even if you’re in the next room. And unlike many control surfaces, it is quick to learn,

small, very portable (did we mention that it’s wireless?), and easy on your wallet.

Gordon Kent of Dancing Dots demonstrates this wireless remote controller for audio software running on your PC.
