macro / fast changing playback device

[cd5josh]

is there a faster way to change playback device from headset to speakers and vice versa than the traditional way?

 

Windows 8.1 I  have a logitech g710 keyboard with macros free, So i was wondering if there is a script that macro or something that i could run ingame that could change quickly.  Or is there a way to set my playback to have my wireless headset as default, unless turned off which my speakers would be secondary and start automatically?

I've got DisplayFusion for my Dual monitors, and under the Functions it has "Set Next/Previous Playback Device as Default".

Which sounds like what you want, If I'm understanding correctly.

 

So its certainly possible, but how easy it is for an AutoHotKey script or something of a mouse macro, I'd have no idea.

If you do happen to have DisplayFusion it would just be as easy as assigning the Function in software to have some random key-presses, and then mirror that on your keyboard macro.

I've done that for a few mouse macros.

 

From a quick google, it does look like an AutoHotKey script wouldn't be too bad to make, and then you could just have that run at startup and call it from a keyboard macro.

The traditional way is to get some hardware that lets you adjust the volume independently.
