I’m happy to share the other macros I’ve made, let me know… Also, on Windows you have the amazing AutoHotkey, that does much of this and is free.įunny you should mention it - I’ve harnessed Keyboard Maestro to do some pretty in-depth macros in Pro Tools and Cubase for what I consider to be missing functionality. select, mute and listen channels directly from the computer keyboard without having to manually interact with the Mix Console.Īttached is a Quickeys macro that makes F3 open Mix Console 1, and if it’s already open it brings it to the front. I use it as a Generic Remote, and have key commands that solo.

Keyboard Maestro is cheaper and Mac only, and does almost everything QK does, plus it can send midi data to Cubase. I never used it on Windows, so I don’t know whether this works there, but I would suppose it does. (Keyboard Maestro can’t see windows set to Always-on-Top)Įdit: Also, for PC there is AutoHotkey, arguably even more powerful.įor example, the current issue where you have to hit f3 twice to get focus to a mix console that is already open, can be handled by Quickeys, which works on both WIndows and Mac. Quickeys, and to a lesser extent Keyboard Maestro can see windows and has functions like “Wait for Window with name containing” and “If frontmost window is ” etc. So I use a couple apps that fill in the blanks.

A couple people asked about his so here you go-Ĭubase macros do not test for conditions.
