I tried the remote section, but could not get it working. Just using transport control and several custom buttons would make Wavelab 8 easier to work with. Steinberg should be able to put the same hardware controller information inside Wavelab for Mackie Controller, etc
I have an Icon Qcon which uses Mackie layout.
Yes, I’m able to get the basics. (transport options) which is really all I wanted when working with Wavelab. All my other commands are done by key command.
Good luck!
