Best remote control for WL7 ?

Can I load the remote control map in Wavelab without having installed a CMC, because I couldn’t find a way of doing that: at least then I’d be able to see which buttons were connected to which WL functions.

You can’t, as the map is loaded automatically according to the detected device, but what you can do, is to visualize all the parameters that you can control, from the Remote Control editor. Select any MIDI input (as far as you have at least one), then click on the Edit map button.
