    Ok, though one to explain coming up, please don't mind my engish =)

    I have an logitech G13, and a normal computerkeyboard (PS/2 or USB). For the ones that never heard of a G13, here is a picture:

    So, the gameboard actually works like a normal keyboard, but the software let you control three pages, So each of the 28 keys can be mapped through the software to three different keystrokes/macros/keyboard buttons. You can change the pages on the top section, you see there M1, M2 and M3.

    Now, what i want to do: i'm soon receiving an x1, and i want to set a modifier on a key on my keyboard so that it changes a modifier in my X1. Now the problem: Traktor Pro won't let you set the keyboard to output a modifier/key to another (MIDI) device. Before, altough, with shared modifiers, in previous TP versions, this was possible. Now, i know that the X1 works standard on the NHL protocol, but even if i set it to midi, it won't work since my keyboard has no output.

    The solution of this problem, IMO, lies in either
    1) Hoping NI would change it so keyboard can output again to other devices
    2) Buying expensive MIDI hardware so that i can adress my modifiers to them
    3) Making (some of) my keyboard buttons react as they were MIDI notes.

    Now, I've been trying to find software that REALLY works for more then 3 months over now, and i'm getting quite desperate. All the links i could find were dead or they linked to software that didn't work. So I'm asking to you now: Has someone WORKING (maybe free) software that can assign keyboard buttons into MIDI notes? I'm nothing with links to forums, or people that claim smt would work. I have been using MIDI-OX, and Rejoice, but they can only do this by a given MIDI signal or by a signal comming from a joystick.

    PS: I have tried rejoice with my joystick on my G13, and it worked. Would be nice, though, to get some Modifiers on that too. Now, the G13 joystick only works in rejoice if you set in the logitech software to emulate a joystick. None of the keys have that option too, only the Joystick.
