Easy OBS/SLOBS Macro Keyboard - like a Stream Deck on a budget!
If you've been looking for a cheaper replacement for an expensive Elgato StreamDeck, try digging your dusty old keyboard out of the basement! You can set up an old keyboard as a macro keyboard with (almost) a full set of macro keys. These keys can be set as one-touch macros for your OBS or SLOBS hotkeys (or most other programs that take hotkey combos). Use it to change scenes, toggle mic audio, or anything else you can do in OBS or StreamLabs OBS!
The underlying software for this is a combination of LuaMacros and AutoHotKey, but I've added a user-friendly GUI (interface) to the AHK script that triggers the hotkeys.
First, download and install AutoHotKey: https://www.autohotkey.com/
