Programmable keys / shortcut keyboard

[sgrimshaw]

I could do with an add on keyboard/pad to which I can assign shortcuts etc.

Anyone have any experience of either of these, or have any other recommendations.

Couldn't you use a cheapo game controller, they've plenty of keys you could define with software??

I know the Streamdeck is expensive, but it really is a lovely, lovely bit of kit. You would not regret it.

Thanks for the link, from that I also found this wireless one:

I'll look closely at both of them.

How would I go about using a game controller for this?

Just been watching some YT videos about it, it does look rather good.

I could probably (certainly) get away with the 6 button version as well

If it was wireless it would have been ordered by now.

Do you have one?

Quick question if you do .......... can you use it with multiple computers .. obviously not at the same time
