Don’t be afraid of its possibilities for now I’m going to tell you how I use it for my daily work alongside some grim reminders of my ineptitude as a musician some music hardware that I fortuitously had kicking around.Īmong the many things that Keyboard Maestro can do is to run scripts in a browser.
