thanks scook - I'll check that out...not sure how it over-rides Splat though, I would have thought that Splat would take control - hahaha but it IS windows
 
Oh and while you're here, do you have any thoughts on the OP? All I can get it to do is insert a bank/patch change...I know it USED to advance a bank (or patch) depending on which box was in focus. It was how ai zipped though lots of patch presets when creating MIDI files. Simply pressed the + key to move up one without needing to open the patch or bank drop down lists.
 
EDIT: Okay it is only when Splat is open it does this. No other app or program on the PC pops up a volume slider when the + key is pressed....
 

 
 
 

That looks like your Windows volume control. Make sure Sonar has keyboad control.

yeah that's what I thought it was, but outside of Splat - it does not appear when pressing the + key!!
 
I'll hunt around on google and see what I can find. What is surprising is it is actually "over-riding" splat settings!

Sorry. tparker24's procedure works here so not sure what to say at this point.

Yeah, as was written there, I had already checked for those. It is a weird issue for sure. I have found another way which is to use shift and the +/= and _ /- keys (above the bracket key). However I do KNOW that the + and - keys on the number pad used to work exactly the same way (and with no combination needed)
