I have a need to setup a remote (has to be wireless) control station for the transports of SONAR.... My guitar work area requires me to sit to perform (specialized pedal board where I need both feet moving and I have to sit). 
 
I can set up the recording session at the PC but once I sit down, I would like to control the recording transports and rewind to re-record or listen while sitting on the chair of the guitar session.  The best scenario would be for me to have the remote control device on a stand as well for organizational reasons.
 
Any suggestions are welcome. My desktop is equipped with a wireless networking but if there exist some blue tooth solution, I am not opposed to checking that out as well.
 
I thank you in advance and walking back and forth is a buzzkill, let alone how all the guitar and headphones wires get entangled.  I would like to sit down and do as many takes as I need for the guitar tracking sessions.

Wireless keyboard for your PC? Or is it too far away for that?

Scott.... too far away for the wireless keyboard (which I do have).....  tried it and I get nothing.

I use an iPad running AC-7 core HD. Works very well.

How about trying a really long keyboard extender cable?
 
It might be "old school" - but it works!

Bristol,
 
I don't want any more wires.... I have a hard enough time keeping the cans/guitar and mic cables separated..... I have an iPad and an SURFACE.... 
 
JB, 
 
Is the AC-7 core hard to setup?
 
Thanks for the suggestions.

Not really. There is a video on YouTube that helps you through connecting it to Sonar. You need to install some software on your pc first, but I got it up and running quite quickly, with only a little swearing.

Yep, you can also use TouchDAW on Android. Not sure about Windows Surface.

There is another more expensive app that apparently works even better with Sonar - you can open the prochannel in it amongst other things.  The developers worked with Cake.  There should be something on the Cake site somewhere.
 
Can't think what it's called.  It costs about fifty of our English pounds.  AC-7 is about five-ish.
 
If you only want it to start and stop, then youAC-7 is more than enough.

If you have the Surface, you can use remote desktop and control the daw that way.
