I also wanted to have a unique modular keyboard, where I could grab any parts that I needed, this is the first of many other parts. So I decided to do it myself, in the simplest way possible, without diodes, resistors, or anything else. I will be taking you through what you need, how to assemble it, how to program it, and how to improve it or make it your own.Īfter much research, I couldn't really find a great guide on how to make a macro keypad, or a hand wired keyboard in general.
In this Instructable I will be taking you through the basics of creating your own 6 keyed macropad, controlled by an Arduino.
