Soundpad and G-Keys on Logitech G15 keyboard

[ni.XT.reff]

Can this keys be used as Hotkeys in Soundpad?

Logitech's G-Keys are only known to Logitech software. So there is no way Soundpad can recognize them. But you can workaround that by using Logitechs software.
This software allows you to define certain actions that are done on keypress. One of these actions is to raise another keypress event.

The workaround is to define something like 'Shift + F1' or whatever you want to one of your G-Keys and every time you press that key the Logitech software will raise the key event that you configured for. That enables Soundpad to detect that key press event.

I'm sorry for necroing but the Logitech's software has an Integration API. Would it be possible to add it to soundpad? It can be even as a paid DLC since that would convince me to buy Soundpad itself as well

I guess i don't know why his option doesn't work for you - you can tell the gkey to be the exact hotkey that it is in soundpad, effectively doing the same thing. Its how i play wow with a gkeys keyboard.
