If you've ever wanted to remap your computer keyboard in a DAW that doesn't support it or do more complicated macros, try AutoHotKey. It's free and does a ton more, but remapping for single-handed use was all I was interested in. https://www.autohotkey.com
Here's the script I use as an example. Just save it as a text file (*.ahk) and edit it for the keys you want to remap. You can find the window name for your DAW, and replace the one for Ableton, using the integrated Window Spy utility. There's a list of special key names on the site.
Keyboard Maestro is available for the Mac, and it's easier to configure, though it's not free as AutoHotKey is.
