Keyboard Maestro - my final review

Post by MIDI Life Crisis »

SUCKS! Very inconsistent results. Sometimes it works. Most times it doesn't.

I WANT MY QUICKEYS BACK!!!!

Mike,
Ok but working here 100% of the time here and has been since I abandoned QK for not working a few years ago. Maybe you're trying to do something w KM that I'm not, l cannot tell from your post. Detailing your problem would be of better use to the list, me included, than a blanket condemnation of KM which lots of people use successfully.

I read on their user site there's an OS routine that has to run every time you start a macro. Apparently that is where it gets stuck.

Perhaps give ControllerMate a try.

The developer seems to keep pretty frequent updates going.

Thanks. At this point I'm open to anything. I can't believe they key QK die w/the programmer.
