Top row: Show I/O window, Show Env Window, Show FX Window, ByPass FX (all for current track), Bypass All FXĢnd Row: Toggle Min/Norma Track Height, Toggle Norm/Max track height, Save File, Mute selected tracks, Solo Selected Tracks The buttons (after creating keyboard shortcuts where these don't already exist): The big black round thing on the right (with the 4 arrows) Zoom In/Out Vertically and Zoom In/Out Horizontally The scroll wheel goes to select prev track/ next track, pressing it is Escape I use Normal mode and Red mode only at present - not Green or Blue. Yess, I've mucked around and changed my mind a few times but this seems to work well. You were right, best $40 spent (next to Reaper of course, most likely tomorrow) I'm thinking I can leave Escape and ~ off since my thumb can reach the adjacent keyboard :) Like for instance, apart from the Macros did you put Ctrl/Alt/Shift on there and if so which keys did you use? I think I'd want them so my left hand stays on the n52. Hey Nicholas, just curious what keys you found essential for editing and how you mapped them. Toggle to track maximise with left hand, zoom in, in, i with right hand,, seelct a range with mouse in right hand, use left hand to press the macro key on the n52 which splits selected item at loop selection then deletes it.ĭoes this make sense? Best $40 I ever spent, I think. Left hand on n52, right hand on PC keyboard. I use it mainly for navigating, zooming and editing. Oh yes, and each key can have four states, so it's like having 56 keys! You can also create macros which string together a number of keystrokes and assign the macro to one key on the n52. It has 14 keys plus various scrolling devices and otehr things - you can assign keystrokes to it, ie Reaper keyboard functions as well as mouse wheel actions. If you've got a few mpre brain cells than me, you'll have no problems getting it up and running.įor me, the n52 sits on the left, keyboard in middle, mouse on right. (P.S.The problem was user error, I'm pleased to say, not related to Reaper at all. If you want a contoller that can ehance not just FS, but your other apps, pay the $40 (or $30 for the N50 with only 10 keys and no shift or wheel) for this thing, if you don't like it, return it, and make sure to let me know how much you hated it. This is not an advertisement, and it does take some getting use to, especially as 3 shift functions give me 60 total keys, but give it a another week and I'll probably start forgetting how I ever got around using the keyboard and mouse. This thing puts all of the command right there, just one key away, everything is quick, everything is smooth. The whole thing feels more integrated, as when you use a keyboard, you know it, and it doesn't feel very real. Another key is programmed to pause the sim, so I can check my downloads' progress. Use the thumb D-Pad to move the pointer to the AP and use the wheel to select a course of 180. Just move my index finger down one key for right differential brake, ring finger up one to activate the GPS window. No more "F6" or "G" or feeling my way across the board to find the right input. It originally bought it to improve my other games, but once I programmed it for FS (Every button and trigger can be mapped to any key or key sequence you want) and took out my F/A-18E, I was impressed. Just bought this thing after reading a couple of pretty good reviews and though it isn't a throttle, the Belkan Nostromo N52 brings a completely new feel to simming.
