I have a Cherry keyboard with an extra 24 buttons that can also be bank switched,
potentially making an extra 240 keys, more than I would ever need - or label.

It allows me to program key sequences or a scancode sequence per button.
Using F13 - F24 in Shortcuts / Key Control I have been able to use 12 of these but have
run out of unique assignments in the key control list.

I see an assignment called Keycode, this may be a solution but I can't see where
you can enter the code. I assume this is the way it works. Has anybody used this ?

Thanks

This is actually an old PS2 keyboard and the app for it allows entering hex sequences, no doubt
dropped with usb. I was able to get F13-24 working by finding the scancodes for these keys and a bit of guesswork.

Yes, modifier keys would be the solution. I see a key control assignment called `modifiers',
how does that work ?

I need to bite the bullet and get into scripting. I'm now thinking that DMX to midi could be a
way of keyframing vMix.

Thanks for your help.

I thought modifiers and keycode might be placeholders yet to be implemented.

Hi Peter. I also have a Cherry ASCII keyboard (G86-71411) with an additional 42 programmable keys, and not able to utilise this as an all-in-one, cheap priced solution for vMix. It works very well with other software that allow SHIFT and CONTROL modifier keys. The .Net coding is simple enough (KeyEventArgs Class), and would add greater flexibility to the type of control surfaces available in vMix.

AUTO HOT KEY (a ton of help on internet and manual is big bible). Ill show you some simple code:

================
!Q::
WinActivate ,vMix - 22.0.0.48 x64 ;not shure what version you use .. see by "Window Spy" utlity by autohotkey
Send {F13}
Return
================

so if you type ALT+Q it will active your vMix window and send there F13.
if you make your programable keyboard key send "ALT+Q" thanks to autohotkey it will translate to F13 for vMix

in vMix you can make shortcuts for lot of keys that you usualy don't have on keyboard like F13 to F24 or whole FN functions and Multimedia keys BrowserRefresh, BrowserStop ect. meny of those can be sended by autohotkey (Send {Browser_Refresh})

This is only overcoming actual issue but at least you can use your macro keyboard to define some keys for vMix.
