FASTACTION KEYBOARD
The FastAction Keyboard (FAK) enables you to perform common tasks in
FXDeko with a single keystroke. It is designed for use in real-time on-air
environments, where speed is critical. Based on a standard PC 101 keyboard, the
FAK provides additional keys for one keystroke accessibility to many of
FXDeko’s functions. It also provides an alphanumeric display so you can enter
or view the filename of the next graphic to be read.
