Incrementing BPM with keyboard

Post by avatar_888 » Mon Apr 28, 2008 7:31 am

Hey,

Is it possible to assign a computer keyboard key to increasing or decreasing the BPM by 1? Just as happens when the BPM field has focus and you press up or down.

I use Live for DJing and quite often want to change BPM at the same time as mixing so it'd be useful to be able to do it while keeping focus on clips rather than in the BPM box. Haven't been able to work out how to so far though...

Any ideas?


Thanks

I'm guessing you will need something like autohotkeys...

I should have mentioned I'm on a Mac using Live 7.

But I'm still not sure how this would work anyway?
