it sounds like a poorly written app. What app is it?
well you're right there. it's a bit of a mess.
Pro Tools.
Perhaps I've mis-diagnosed the problem it. it certainly seems like
one or two key events get missed while the app is busy reading stuff
into memory.
I am using CGPostKeyboardEvent.
is there a better way of achieving this with a different API?

That seems wrong. Are you sure this is what's going on?
Mac apps normally remove key events from a queue. So if an app is
busy, the events stay in the queue until the app can get them. If
this app is missing events because it's busy, it means that it is
purposely throwing some events away, or that it's not using events
at all but merely polling the keyboard state. Either way, it sounds
like a poorly written app. What app is it?
