I made my own Pro Tools Hotkey Matrix (http://www.dnamusiclabs.com/node/4452) by using a Cherry keyboard that I bought off ebay for a lot less money than this (http://www.l-trondirect.com/Cherry-G86-6340-SPOS-POS-Black-14-USB-keyboard-p/g86-63400euadaa.htm?gdftrk=gdfV25850_a_7c2310_a_7c8644_a_7cG86_d_63400EUADAA) or the cost of the Hotkey Matrix. No more trying to remember "gangsign" keyboard commands.
 
Inkjet printer and then cut them out. Used the excel spreadsheet as a guide and the Cherry tool to program it. I am about 85% done with the programming. I had to use some of the menu key combos to make it work.
 
yeh, this really speeds up the workflow once you get used to it. I made mine a few years back using the X-keys box and adapted it for Logic9. Pretty useful n if you're patient/good w computers enough, you can actually flash your program to the box its self n use it on other computers, or just close the adaptation software to free up a lil processor power. I chose to hand illustrate mine as I'm better w icons than words :p

got it from these guys via amazon          http://xkeys.com/XkeysKeyboards/index.php



 
Nice. Mine is not backlit. The missing keys are pro tools HD commands only. I figured this out when I tried to add them and they would never work, then I read the documentation. I will program them to be other menu options at some point.
