Remote control of transport in Orion?

[manytone]

Hi Guys
Anybody know how and if there is a way for my M Audio Keyboard with Transport controls to be able to control the start stop record etc in Orion. I can't see any way for this? Yet i am doing it with my other hosts.
Anybody... is this possible?

Plenty of keyboards nowadays have these controls on them and i find it a 100% time saving feature. I figured it out in Live and Sonar but not in Orion yet. Figured i would ask instead of Bangin' me Head.

Thanks in advance
Paul

Currently orion accepts only pc keyboard shortcuts for host controls. But there are some ideas to add a midi/keyboard mapping, i.e. that one can bind freely choosable midi events to shortcuts. This way it's possible to use for example a midi foot control to activate recording etc.
I'm curious: Does your keybord send midi signals when pressing start/stop/rec?

Hi MaxJoy
That's what i figured.... no wonder i could not see a way for this.

Yes the Midi light in Orion lights up when i hit the play and record buttons etc on my M Audio keyboard ...so all the data is there.
Hopefully Rich adds this asap as it would be a great feature to have. I mean ...cough ....Live does it ... But i use Orion!!!!

Hi Paul,

I hope this will come soon, too - it's a little step for Rich but a huge one for mankind .
