Let us have yet another global hotkeys column!

[Kenji Wolfgang]

First, I'd like to say I love aimp, and has been my default choice for music players ever since I tried it back in 2014,
THANK YOU so much for keeping such awesome player maintained, and loved. For this and many more years together as a community.

Over the years my needs have changed, and I just recently got a macro keyboard that I plan to exclusively use with Aimp, the idea is to FULLY and EXCLUSIVELY control aimp from this device, but still leaving my main hotkeys (media keys and global 2) also enabled,

A lot of times, what's at hand is my keyboard, some other times, what's at hand is my mouse, in which case the macro keyboard would be what I'd use while I play games, and depending on what's the case scenario, I switch between them freely.
A third row of Global hotkeys will allow me to keep the media keys, my custom hotkeys for when I use my keyboard, and my macro keyboard to coexist!

This would geatly improve my experience and I'm sure many others who also use multiple devices attached to their computer to control their player to their heart content however is more convenient for them at the moment.
For this reason, I'd like to ask for this to be implemented!

Thank you so much!

Yes indeed!

I'd be awesome to have a third row of Global Hotkeys!

👆 I got this macro keyboard, it can be programmed to send F13 to F24 keys, and many others, which I got currently set up on Aimp as hotkeys for play/pause, volume up/down, search, and next/previous.

However, since there is no 3rd row of Global Hotkeys, I have to either sacriface my media keys, or my keyboard hotkeys instead of keeping all three.

Here is a example I recorded, I can control the player exclusively from this keyboard when I game:

Can't you just set up the macro keyboard to send the same key codes as the main keyboard/media keys?
