[RWP] accessable efects vst's?

Tue Oct 30 11:55:48 EDT 2012

Not in AHK, but in my home made method of returning to preset buttons, 
in Reaper, I always begin with the cursor at the upper left corner, then 
find another reference point, a certain non speaking screen graphic that 
seems to be in all bitMap synth plugs that refuse to load their presets 
by themselves. .
That's a Window-Eyes special feature, to move the cursor to certain 
screen graphics, and yet hear no announcement at all.

I've got to learn AHK, even if only to quickly jump to the presets 
buttons of otherwise inaccessible plugs.
