Please help with Sinden software auto start ( finish after close ) for Sega Model 2 running Demulshooter.

Hi, I've setup sega model 2 emulator and roms to run through Launchbox, following the Sega Model 2: Setup Guide for Lightguns & Launchbox Youtube video by TKS Sitch Gaming.
The video goes into great detail and is very clear, but unlike TKS's other videos like Lightgun games for PCSX2, it does not include the Sinden software to autostart ( usually via a AHK script) on launch of a game and close on exit.
It does, however, start up Demulshooter through the additional apps feature in Launchbox.
Ideally I would like the Sinden gun software to start first when a game is launched, then a pause for 7 seconds ( this is how long the Sinden software take to initialize on my machine) then run Demulshooter.
Finally when the game is exited, then Sinden software should also exit.
My thoughts where, maybe the Sinden software should also be added as an Additional app with the game settings, but I scared of messing thing up.
Any help on this would be great, even if to say this is not possible.

Cheers
A

In the end I came at it a different way.
I added Sinden & Demulshooter into an AHK Script instead of using additional applications for demulshooter, so they start when the game is selected.
The reason I don't have Sinden run from start up is I have two versions of Sinden, one set to joystick mode and the other set to mouse mode.
I flip between the two depending on what the emulator wants.

Would you mind sharing some details about your scripts and where you set them? I presume in the Running Script section of the respective emulators.  Future readers, I'm sure would benefit greatly from this info.

Sure, what emulator are you using?

Well, personally I don't have/use either of those as I don't have any light guns for my cab. 

I was thinking more-so generally as an aid/tutorial/guide/how-to for future readers.  (And maybe me someday. ;))
