Hello everyone,
I too, would love to see this implemented in a very flexible way. I've been
wanting a way to toggle between to preset filter widths on my k3 without
having to reach over and touch the rig, or have a set of two keys to
narrow/widen the filter (since the dsp filter in the K3
is continuously adjustable).
I could also see it utilized in remote operating. If any of the rig
functions that can be controlled through CAT could be assigned to the
keyboard, then having the rig at your fingertips becomes much less of an
issue.
Maybe that's what the "front panel" add ins were designed to do.
Unfortunately, I've never found any that have been developed.
