Additional keyboard for Macros
Posted: 04 Mar 2019, 12:58
Hi,
I hope you can help me. I have been searching for a keyboard that I can add to my normal keyboard and freely program it. Also with macros.
Until now I could verify with Cherry that Multiboard V2 keyboards with chipcard reader could do that. There is a lot of gaming stuff on the market, but they seem not so much perfect for my purpose. And I am pretty much not sure how they work together with another keyboard and how they can be configured. Information is sparse. There seems to be stuff like that: Koolertron AE-SMKD72-AQ. But it can take only 8 macros. I cannot just use Autohotkey because I want to use my normal keyboard with the normal functions.
Maybe someone knows a cool technical solution? The Cherry Multiboard V2 costs around 130 € in Germany. I do not need the card reader, but it has MX switches plus 100+ freely programable keys It is ok for me to spend around 100 € for a similar product which may not be sooo huge. I think one needs a device where the key configuration is done onboard and not via a macro software for Windows?
Bye
