Keyboard up/down modules that report the VK-keyboard codes on pressing or releasing keyboard (as in "QWERTY" computer) keys.

This must be the easiest feature to implement in S|M ever, and quite useful since you could handle multiple keys much more efficiently than the using a huge array of Key Press modules. I'd love to see those be officially released in S|M.

Keyboard handling certainly needs a thorough sorting out. The current Key Press doesn't seem to have a clue about window focus - it respond even when the SM window (or plugin) has no focus - but also allows key presses to 'drop through' to windown beneath it when it does have focus.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
