Hello! I run live visuals for concerts and conferences. I have been having a great time utilizing my Cyborg 2 while playing WoW. I've also had in mind to utilize the Cyborg 2 for mapping controls in a Audio Reactive software for functions similar to simple toggling. The joystick would be cool to map as well but is not a necessity. Upon trying to connect the controller to map the macros with the toggle functions within the software, the device could not be recognized. I contacted the Synesthesia.live team today and recieved this response. Do you have any advice on the best approach to solving this? Thank you! Loving the controller, just have niche goals. The software Resolume will be my next concert visual goal to attempt.

"they're probably sending as either a mouse or keyboard input and we don't have a custom keymapping system. best bet for now is probably to translate the inputs to MIDI or OSC via some 3rd party software, I bet chataigne or AHK could do it"

AHK should do it, but there is quite a lot of info about converting standard keyboad into MIDI keyboard, so I believe it should be doable.
Unfortunately I haven't tried it myself, so wouldn't know the easiest way on doing this
