Hello everyone!
I don´t want to spend money for a new HOTAS at the moment and my Thrustmaster Afterburner II lacks many wheels, rotaries and sliders for trim, mixture, pitch, radiator control, etc..
Now I wonder if I could divert my Oxygen 49 USB-MIDI Keyboard into a controller. Maybe there is program which can interpret the raw usb data or convert the MIDI information into (game)controller outputs. It doesn´t work "out-of-the-box" with Cliffs of Dover. I think that´s because the keyboard is not installed as a (game)controller, so CoD cannot recognize it.
I thought I could give it a try and ask you guys for some ideas or solutions. I would really appreciate it! Thanks in advance!

You can you use Glovepie to do that but you have to write your own scripts

Also check out HID Macros: http://www.hidmacros.eu/

Or instead use the (more expensive) Oxygen 49 USB-MIDI Keyboard, buy a cheap USB keyboard and use with HIDMacros, with some customization in keys, like:

Thanks guys! I guess it will need some fiddeling, but GlovePIE and HID Macros both look like the could do the trick.

@Soko1
The Oxygen is already on my desk and if I get it´s many knobs, sliders and rotaries to function with CoD, that´s all I gonna need!

AKAI MPD8 also offers a lot a of knobs for small price

Axiom-49 here also! Any easy to follow instruction or finished script for GlovePIE and FS9/FSX?

cheers m8s!
