I don't stress QLab out very hard, programming the stuff I do here in the sticks, but there's one thing I do on every cue on every show: adjusting the levels.
I presently do that by using V to start the cue, so I don't lose context, and looking at the cue in the Time&Loops window, for context.
But then I can't reach the Master level control for the cue.
Is there any easy way that I can configure QLab and maybe some ancillary stuff to let me get "Master Level volume up/down 1/2/3/6dB" (on 8 separate keys, obviously), such that it will end up baked into the cue, and Save when I do that? Numeric keypad keys maybe? XKeys?
I gather I can do that from OSC, but I assume I'd need something to capture those keys and bend them around into OSC. Can I just assign those keys QLab scripts? Can those scripts reach "the current cue"?
Will I learn all these answers when I read the OSC API section of the website?
