Other Help Topics :: Macros.....USB keypards....

Hi there
On with my bloody fluidsynth topic again

There must be a simple way to do this..........
I wanted to use a USB numeric keypad. When you press '1' on the keypad I want to be able to issue a command ( like a text string).....
What's the best way of doing this please?

I only want to do this so when I press '1' it loads a pianosoundfont. If I press '2' it loads an electric piano.

You can change sounds easily enough in fluidsynth by typing in it's command line...I just wanted to be able to trigger things.....I suppose it's like a macro or a batch file...

Thanks everyone
