Configure media keys on a non-Apple keyboard to control Spotify via AppleScript and USB Overdrive on OSX.

Requirements

  1. USB Overdrive
  2. A non-Apple keyboard with media keys (or keys you want to make "media" keys). For reference, I'm using a Microsoft Sidewinder X4

Set Up

  1. Plug in your keyboard and install USB Overdrive.
  2. Open USB Overdrive. Click into the Settings tab.
  3. Click the dropdown and select "Any Keyboard, Any Application"
