Pedal for Teleprompter: Donner Wireless Page Turner DMB-1
This remote control is designed to work as a pedal. While being a different concept, it serves the same main purpose as every other teleprompter remote: advancing through your script and adjusting the text display speed.
The main difference between this kind of design and other more conventionally shaped remotes is that you can operate it with your feet. This feature is interesting for those who need to use their hands while speaking to the camera and will mostly depend on how much of your torso is showing in your shots.
It is equipped with an easy mode selector:
- Mode 1 will allow you to Play/Pause and rewind your script in increments.
- Mode 5 will allow you to change text speed.
Note that you will not be able to change font size remotely with this device, so you will need to adjust this feature directly on your iPad or tablet. However, this is not a major drawback since once your font size is set to the desired number you will not be modifying it often.
This remote is silent and well-constructed, so even if less versatile than the first, it is an interesting option for shots that require the speaker to be hands-free.

Pedal for Teleprompter: AirTurn PED pro
This pedal remote has the slickest design in our opinion. It is low profile, well-built and charges via micro-USB.
Its pressure-operated pedals stand out because of their sensitivity, as there is no need to push hard on them. It has a fairly straightforward mode system that will allow you to use it in combination with our FREE teleprompter APP to scroll through the text, rewind, play/pause, and manage text speed.
Please note that with this model you will not be able to change the text size with the remote, but you will have to do it in the prompting App.

Pedal for Teleprompter: AirTurn Duo BT-200
The AirTurn Duo BT-200 is the first generation of the remote above, but it is still a great device to use if you like more traditional designs better.
It uses two regular pedals and comes in a more conventional shape and color. It charges via micro-USB too, so it is convenient to use on the go, and its functionality is identical to its younger brother, the AirTurn PED pro, in that it uses the same mode system and offers the same control capabilities.
The only downturn of these two devices is the fact that changing modes involves a hold-and-release mechanism that is simple but might take a couple of uses to get used to.

Pedal for Teleprompter: iRig BlueTurn
This device is the most compact out of the pedal remotes on this list.
While having more limited capabilities (it only allows the user to Play/Pause and to rewind in increments), this makes it very straightforward and convenient for those who only need to make basic use of the teleprompter software.
Because it only has two buttons it is the easiest system to pick up and its Bluetooth module works fast and consistently (only needs to be paired once).
It operates silently and the buttons are backlit, so you may need to take this into consideration depending on what your shots and lighting situation will look like.
The only downturn could be the fact that its on/off button sits underneath the device, so you will need to flip it upside down in order to turn it on and off.
