Macro to open the instrument track channel settings from a midi track

Hi, I want a macro to open the channel settings of the instrument track that is connected to a midi track.

When I select a midi track and press the open channel settings keycommand, it opens the Midi channel settings, and I want it to open the instrument track channel settings. I don´t know if I am making myself very clear.

I tried macro or mouse recording but it depended a lot of screen position and placements, and didn´t work reliably.

Is there a way to have a macro that does this?

Thanks!

Hello Pablo!
You should explain better what you mean and how your template is organized.
Do you want to open the "CHANNEL SETTINGS" (the one with the EQ-curve, etc ...) of an Instrument track or do you want to open the GUI of a VSTi in the VSTi rack?
Please, make an example of your template and we will tell you if we can help you.

Hi Silvano, I want to open the one with the EQ-curve, etc.

For example:
I have a piano midi track, routed to an instrument track which host a kontakt instance with a piano loaded.
There is a second "e" button in the inspector which opens the channel settings of that instrument track, but no keycommand to access it.

Hello!
We have checked, but we have no good solutions for this.
As you said, the only one could be to use the moouse cursor clicks, but it is an error-prone solution.
