MIXBOARD

Idea came from a fightboard a friend of mine found on Etsy (link here). Unfortunately, it is far too expensive and sold out. So I decided to build it myself. Additionally, I get to learn:

  • design and 3D print the board;
  • soldering;
  • microcontrollers;

Development

CircuitPython

HID Library!

  • I need it to send key strokes or gamepad commands that my machine understands.

No async or multithreading :(

MicroPython

Async! Multithreading!

No HID library :(

Microcontrollers

Bought them at thepihut.com

Raspberry Pico

Has 2 cores!

Teensy LC

Smaller and different processor (?). Used by thnikk iirc

Key Switches

I decided to get Kailh switches because they look cool. I got them at candykeys.com

Board

Still need to design it

Code
