AHKers, please check my "Channel Settings and Plug-ins" script!

Not true. While I haven’t used your script, I thought I’d offer a little perspective on that.

I have an MCU and an AI. I’m very happy with my setup, and it covers a lot of ground. Even so, I type for a living (programmer), so the qwerty keyboard is for me an intuitive part of the picture. In some cases, because the keyboard is positioned naturally and I have to reach a bit farther to get to the MCU, I’ll hit use a keystroke instead (e.g. F3 to bring up the mixer) even though the MCU has that capability. The MCU controls plugins, but not as conveniently as the AI + mouse. I think it’s all about using the best tool for the job at hand, and there are many times when the qwerty keyboard is exactly that.

A very impressive chunk of work, man. Nice of you to share it with everyone.
