There are many schemes that might apply to how to MAP the Keyboard to the Hot Buttons.

LIVE Programming

repeated with ease.
Note: The Keyboard Key Mapping is relevant to every Hot Button panel that you open - the key you pick

It's very important to PLAN the assignment of Keyboard Keys for this feature, FIRST!
Studio Player screen in front of you. So, lets assign the number pad first.
Caution: Things that will prevent the number pad from working effectively
-
The "Num Lock" deactivates the number key and does not allow assignment.
-
The same condition will apply if you happen to turn the "Num Lock" OFF.
-
If you have dual screens and you are working on some other app, the number pad will only work START / STOP
-
if the DJB Studio is the current active app.
-
So make certain the Num Lock is ON and your DJB SDJB Studio Player edges to make the app front and center.
