wacom latency + ShuttlePro Settings 2004-04-07 - By Cody Cobb
Back
I'll send you my exported setup. Anyone else need ShuttlePro settings for
XSI?
I'm still setting it up as I go along and figure out my best workflow, but
it could at least give you an example of how it can be used. I have RCTools
and Mindthink tools referenced by the ShuttlePro, so you'll need those.
You'll also need to map their popup commands.
