I'm looking for the lyric keystrokes that activate a specific frame buffer on a duet with multiple channels. Obviously the change button will alternate between channels but what I need is the equivilant of what chyron max had: cntrl+change+1 or 2 would select the appropriate channel.

Ultimately I am trying to create a macro that calls up a message in a specific channel. So far I don't have anything in the macro script to designate a channel so it just comes up in whatever channel is currently active.

Use this macro to go to a specific frame buffer:

activecanvas.selection.execute ("duet channel x")

where x is the FB number

Note: if you have a dual channel clip player the above command only changes FB's to change clip players also add:

set WshShell=CreateObject ("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.SendKeys "%oi+(tab)+(tab)+(tab)+(tab)+(tab)+(tab)x`"

where x is the clip player number.

The character at the end of the line is a tilde (`)
