Perhaps Harmony makes a basic inexpensive remote. I use one of their mid price models for my home theater.
Cambridge CXC: Help finding a small, programmable remote?
After much research and searching, I was pleased to purchase and receive the Cambridge CXC transport. As some mentioned, the CXC remote is ungainly, crammed with buttons for other products I don't intend to purchase.
Does anyone have a lead on a small, programmable remote — something the size of a Roku remote? This makes much more sense. Having input buttons for specific tracks would be nice, too. (Cannot *believe* they left those off. FFS.)
Hopefully any answers might also help folks with other products who, like me, hate their remote.

@ericsch - Yes, the Harmony database does have the CXC codes but when I downloaded them to one of my Harmony remotes some controls didn't work well so I went for a simple solution I could control manually and was familiar with. You probably could "teach" a Harmony remote in the same way I did the Sony but I was already familiar with the Sony so went with it. |
Would there be reason to think earlier remotes from Cambridge would not work? Eg https://www.ebay.com/itm/CAMBRIDGE-AUDIO-CD-32-34-Original-Remote-Control-GENUINE-FREE-UK-DELIVERY-/... |
As some mentioned, the CXC remote is ungainly, crammed with buttons for other products I don’t intend to purchase.And the buttons needed are all at the bottom, where one hand operation is awkward to hold and press. Get a cheap ebay learning remote which has no buttons needed the bottom 1/3 of it. This ones expensive https://www.ebay.com/itm/Rotel-RR-1050-Learning-LCD-Remote-Control-W-Original-Box/114088790789?hash=item1a9038cb05:g:1X4AAOSwkUxeMGlX But there are 1600 others to choose from https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2334524.m570.l1313.TR8.TRC1.A0.H0.X+learning+remote.TRS0&_nkw=+learning+remote&_sacat=0&LH_TitleDesc=0&_osacat=0&_odkw=simple+learning+remote Cheers George |
