MIDI Remote is an external device whose main purpose is to be able to control MIDICar Player (in its latest version) via remote control. In addition, it also allows you to present the title of the currently playing song, and visualize the MIDI data stream you are listening to.
It uses the MIDI protocol for communication, which is natively supported by MIDICar or via the SIO connector, allowing it to be used with other MIDI devices, such as MIDIBox or MIDIMate.
The remote control can be used to control program functions such as Play/Pause/Stop, next/previous track, type of song/list looping (loop mode), moving through the list, changing equalizer parameters for DreamBlaster S2 (volume, low, mid, treble)
