Had to sort out first some image related things. Hope it works. The whole setup is in progress......... nearly there. Note: the keys are backlighted. The way I created the buttons :

Started fiddling with an Elgato Stream deck. A nice 15-illuminated-button pageable box. It IS possible to use it with FLX S, You need to connect a PC/laptop running windows 10 and Zeros monitor. Connect the Streamdeck to your PC/laptop, and configure some keys. I chose to configure the "missing" handy keys on a FLX S . e.g. arrows, home, highlite, a fast @ , a thru , and so on. Choose yourself. It is only possible to use the standard keyboard shortcuts. Half of them are on the desk itself anyway, the other half I chose to put on the streamdeck now. Saves learning them by heart, saves using the Z-key, saves use of shift and ctrl buttons and/or putting stickers on your keyboard keys. Nice experiment, and it works fine. Only the fact you need a PC/laptop running next to your FLX S is a bit of overkill. And for the about 15 buttons you are probably going to use, a bit of an investment. I own the thing anyway, mainly for use with Qlab. For fullsize FLX it should be possible to make a MIDi-controller out of it. via the "Companion"-program which works together with the Elgato software. Though I think it needs some more type of whizzkid than I am. As far as I know, companion already has some ready 'personalities' for some existing other brand lighting desks.

Well, I will try to send pictures soon.
