To refine workflows its helpful to have access to being able to make programmatic macros not just serial key presses or even logical editor.
Things like, when you grab a (hardware) fader, it can jump to that channel on the mixer (which it can do but not under MCU); eucon does work, if you have inspector open; have that flick down the fader section and close all the others . There are scripts in remote editor that are restrained to whatever the current API exposure and is still quite half baked from what I can see in the docs and so on as well as Im not being paid to do that and waste my time hacking, enduring the bugs and shortcomings and frustration…just here to make music and tweak the workflow in a global way
So I have found AutoHotKey is without peer and with its midi extension, there isnt much limitation. Im happy to learn and script it because it works across every area of work I do however
It needs the window API of the application to make available, the handles and the widget addresses. I can do this successfully in nearly every other prog EXCEPT Cubase.
Has this progressed any further eg Can you use the window spy to now identify ALL the open windows or still just project/mixer?
Im on Cubase 12 and Im not interested in upgrading until basic stuff like this becomes available and I realise that may be never, but can anyone inform me if this is now available? That would be so helpful.
Also as mentioned, the project mixer etc can all be neatly arranged using Powertoys/Fancy zones and that is so cool, then saving the workspace but last time I tested…that was all…you can auto grid the plugin windows…has this changed?
Cheers
