Overview

RME Control is a lightweight macOS control layer for the RME ADI-2/4 Pro. The current implementation is a Hammerspoon script built to make frequently used controls available without repeatedly working through the full ADI-2 Remote interface.

The project focuses on fast interaction, minimal visual overhead, and predictable behavior from the desktop.

Current implementation

The Hammerspoon version provides the working prototype and interaction model. It uses Lua and macOS automation/accessibility capabilities to bridge the desktop controls to the existing RME workflow, with a compact on-screen HUD for feedback.

Next direction

The planned next phase is a native macOS menu bar application. The current Hammerspoon implementation will serve as the behavioral reference while the native version is designed and built.
