"Sound to Light" run on startup?

Hey everyone,

Freestyler is great, I've just went to light switches and 3 separate lighting consoles to a nice rackmount touchscreen with freestyler. My question is... is there a way to have "sound to light" run on startup? My touchscreen interface it setup to display on startup of the computer, I don't want a keyboard or mouse hooked up. There is a "sound to light trigger" button you can put on the touchscreen interface but then it brings up the box to click start, then you have to try and get the freestyler touchscreen windows back to front. It's not a huge issue, just curious if anyone knows a way to do it. Thanks for the input.

i'm not sure, but i dont think there is a setting for that in Freestyler.

But maybe there is an alternative: use a macro recorder in windows that presses the necessary keys after FreeStyler is started.
A good working and free to use macro tool is WinMacro: http://www.geocities.com/win_macro/

I'm glad winmacro did the trick for you.

I can't take the credit for this solution thoug. It was remco_k who suggested it for another user to make a "Start of Night" cue.
