In relation to this:
My school has an ETC Express and will soon be upgrading to an Ion. We use SFX6 for sound and PowerPoint when we need to do projection. This is all normally done with the console controlling lights, one laptop controlling sound and another controlling the projection. I have been looking at the Rosco keystroke to cue at least the sound. Can I use the keystroke to cue both SFX6 and PowerPoint? This raises several other questions.
1) Can keystroke be used to cue more than one key?
2) Using extended desktop in Windows XP or Windows 7, will cuing using SFX6 disrupt the full screen of the presentation on the desktop extension?
3) Using some mix of macro software and keystroke can I cue both sound and presentation without having to click back and forth between programs?
To summarize:
I want to have the ability to cue lights, sound, and presentations all at once using a console, keystroke, laptop, and software. I also want the ability to cue all three at the same time if necessary without having to do some mad alt-tabbing. If no one can figure out exactly how to do it can you at least tell me if it seems possible so I can justify purchasing a keystroke with a limited budget.
Thank You.
