Are there any devices that can act as a footswitch record button? In other words, if I'm recording a track, and no one else is there, I have to click the mouse, run into my booth to do vocals, and then get back as quick as possible....it would be great if I could use a footswitch from the booth to start and stop when needed...........is this possible without paying too much or getting a huge front end deal?
 
Why don't you just buy a cordless keyboard and mouse? I have the Logitech Cordless desktop and it could easily do what you want.
 
That would work, but I'd be interested in something like that too. It's a pain when you're working by yourself. A footswitch would be perfect.
 
That looks incredibly cool. Forgive me, but I'm a bit electronically challenged. Would it be possible to, say, wire up a simple Radio Shmack momentary switch to 1 of the terminals and use that? (or obviously, more of them).

Also, how does one assign a key function to a switch? Is this done via provided software?

Potentially, this could be the coolest thing since sliced bread (IMO).
 
guys, let's move the discussion to the other thread, so others can improve the idea.
