Had a go at it. The syncSyncToMe command seems to work just great as a KidsPlay macro. Now button 6 on my booms syncs everything up. Excellent :) I could not however get the syncSyncToSet 0 command working after making a sync set called all in The Synchronizer. But the other one will do just

Sounds great. I'm using your excellent syncoptions as well to cancel sync when players are powered up. Would it be possible to use KidsPlay to do this: Assume I only ever use one sync group. I want the receiver button and the boom button 6 to toggle sync on and off. Is that possible? Thanks in
