INSTALLATION

1. Download the Editmote Preference Pane from http://www.digitalrebellion.com/editmote onto your editing machine and double-click to install it.

2. Once the preference pane launches, put the switch in the On position.

3. If you have set up a custom keyboard layout for your editing application, set this up in the Keyboard Layouts tab.

4. Launch Editmote on your iOS device.

5. Select the name of your computer in the list.

6. Make sure a supported app is running and use the controls to remotely operate the application.

Note that not every button is functional on every application - for example, QuickTime Player has no marker capabilities so the marker buttons do nothing when pressed while QuickTime Player is running.

7. Customize the button layout to fit your needs by going to the Actions button and tapping Edit Button Layout. When in edit mode, tap a button to choose a different function for that button from a list. When finished, tap the Done button.

I love this app! but i was just informed by apple that it will not work with ios 11. i would love to keep using it, so is there any way to update editmote?


Functional and Hilarious

Great app that works as advertised. Setup is as simple as it gets. Honestly, I initially purchased this to prank my coworkers in adjacent edit suites. This app is well worth $5 whether you use it for business or pleasure.


Perfect

Hardly works for Avid MC 5.5.2

Thought it'd be a fun cool app to show clients, but was disappointed. While I can mark a clip and go to the in and out I can't play. At all. If this doesn't get fixed it's $5 down the drain...


Works great, fun for clients

It's always a good idea to put your client in a good mood before they have a screening, and showing them how to control the edit system from an iPad is a good first step. I think once the novelty wears off, this will still be a very useful tool for screenings: The controls work very well - there is no noticeable delay between hitting a button and FCP responding. Markers are very useful for clients suggesting edits Pretty cool for $5 I've only used this on FCP7 so far.


Excellent job!

Using with FCP X while screening final editing. Very convinient tool.
