Blue Cat's Remote Control is a collection of audio plug-ins for controlling and monitoring MIDI-controllable plug-ins and external hardware from a customizable interface. It is intended for musicians and audio producers who want a shared control surface for parameters that would otherwise be adjusted in separate plug-in windows or on complex devices. The plug-ins can also serve as a MIDI monitoring and remapping tool within a music production setup.
The control interface brings selected parameters together so they can be adjusted and observed in real time. MIDI Learn helps assign controls without manually entering every mapping, while automation support lets compatible hosts record and play back parameter changes as part of a project. Users can shape a control's response curve, which is useful when a hardware knob or MIDI controller needs to produce a different range or feel from the destination parameter.
Remote Control can also translate MIDI assignments: an incoming controller message can be mapped to a different controller number and channel, with a custom response curve applied along the way. This makes it useful when a controller or device sends messages that do not match the controls expected by a plug-in. The interface can be customized, including with Blue Cat's Skinning Language, for users who want to build a control layout suited to a particular instrument, effect, or workstation.
The plug-ins support undo and redo for changes and can load and save presets in a host-independent format, making settings easier to reuse across projects and compatible host applications. DirectX and VST formats allow the tools to be used in audio software that supports those plug-in standards. Typical uses include consolidating controls for several plug-ins, creating a more accessible surface for hardware, monitoring MIDI activity, and adapting controller messages between devices and software.
Blue Cat's Remote Control is distributed as demo software. Its listed Windows support includes Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10; users should check that their audio host supports the required plug-in format. It is an audio-production utility rather than a standalone instrument, and its usefulness depends on the MIDI capabilities of the plug-ins, devices, and host in the setup.
