Hackpad but the keys are arranged like a piano! I guess this makes it a MIDI keyboard of sorts

Firmware time

Omg the firmware is so much harder than I hoped

I have no idea what I’m doing, I’m already tired and stressed, and the resources haven’t helped much so far.
This feels like trying to piece together a program from someone else’s random programming language. At least it has ok documentation (for what I’m trying to do), but it’s just
so
confusing
omg
I’m like entering crash-out territory on this project

Need help!

Been working on the details of the case. I’m really pulling out all of the stops (that I am aware of) for this project. Here’s the rough sketch!

Man I wish I made the case together with the pcb. having to go back and edit the pcb because something didn’t turn out quite right on the case is such a pain

Lapse ate 2hrs of work today, turns out I’m not supposed to pause the recording and then turn the computer off or else the recording corrupts silently. if anyone knows where I can find the 3d models to the components, please tell me!
