Sorry to hear that Rhino… Hope you get it sorted down the line.
In other (Mac) news, here’s an applescript to launch the last saved project. You load it into Keyboard Maestro, or use Applescript Editor to make it into a double-clickable app.
if application "Cubase 7" is running then
tell application "Cubase 7"
activate --bring cubase to front if it's running already, then exit script.
end tell
else
tell application "Cubase 7" to launch
tell application "System Events"
key down command --press command key
set timer to 1 --to permit script to timeout gracefully
repeat
delay 1 --wait 1 second
if (window 1 of process "Cubase 7" exists) then
exit repeat
end if
set timer to timer + 1 --increment timer value
if timer > 10 then --script will release command key after 90 seconds in case Cubase couldn't launch or something else goes wrong You can adjust this value to suit. My system has an SSD, Cubase launches in about 8 seconds.
exit repeat
end if
end repeat
key up command --release command key
tell application "Cubase 7"
activate --bring cubase to front
end tell
keystroke return
end tell
end if
edit: (and this is assuming Cubase is not already running…)
