Hey folks.
I'm a huge fan of Kontakt libraries, as they offer the greatest realism
in sampled and modeled instruments.
However, the Kontakt player is incredibly inaccessible. I've wondered if
there was a way to use Keyboard Maestro to click coordinates on the
screen, much like Hotspot Clicker or Auto Hotkey on windows.
The topic of using Kontakt came up on the logic list. I responded with
some ideas, which I'm posting below, as I feel it is absolutely relevant
to the Pro Tools platform as well.
Begin Post.
I think that Kontakt could potentially be made somewhat usable in both
logic and Pro Tools using Keyboard Maestro.
We need to do some experiments to see what variables prevent the mouse
from clicking the correct coordinates.
The 4 main buttons that need to be mapped to key presses are as follows.
1. Load
2. Add to library
3. reset multi
4. close browse window, (for samples missing dialog.)
There are other important buttons in the window, but these are the 4
most important.
There are some variables that would prevent proper coordinate clicking
for the above mentioned buttons.
This would include window size and position, the presence of floating
windows, screen resolution, and other things that I haven't yet considered.
Also, it would be interesting to see if there are challenges which are
program dependent between logic and Pro Tools.
I just downloaded a keyboard maestro demo, and need to figure out how to
bind a key command to a coordinate click.
Once I do that, I will get someone to assist me in starting this process.
If anyone has any other insights into this, I'm all ears. I'd love to
get Kontakt working on the mac platform for us.
Kevin
