I was doing this with a mousewheel and girder, and yes, there was a lag time, and not a instant event the way it should be.

I personally would not recomend one of those. I started out with one and had problems once or twice a week coming out of standby and having no vol control(had to unplug and replug to get vol ctrl back)...so I ditched the idea. Now, it's just a expensive paperweight!

I guess that is just becuase autohotkey is simulating keystrokes and it takes it little bit to "catch up". It can really catch you off guard if you aren't careful.
My final solution to this whole problem was to use girder and have it directly control the audio lines, which act just like a reg head unit, 85% instant change!
