Title: XKeys - Programmable shortcut keys
Post by: clanggedin on June 06, 2007, 03:14:06 pm
Gizmodo had a little post about this. I thought this would be an easy way to have mappable buttons for a Juke.

I think $100 is a little steep though.

Yes, great find.

This thing would very pretty good with MultiJuke, as I could see it by myself:

HOME,*, DOWN, UP, LEFT, RIGHT,*, LETTER UP, LETTER DOWN, *, ACTION BUTTON A (RED),
ACTION BUTTON B (YELLOW), ACTION BUTTON C (GREEN), ACTION BUTTON D (BLUE),*,SHOW QUEUE.

For use without credits: move SHOW QUEUE to button 15 and add CONTROL PANEL to button 16.

I guess Wincab/doscab and SK-Jukebox (and maybe others?) could also use this panel very well...

All you need for most Jukes are the arrows and 0-9 and an enter button. That leaves you one extra button. They are backlit too.
