This is a crucial step in one of my "I'll do it one day projects" and I got pretty excited when I saw Tom Scott's video, but then when I realized he didn't provide any examples I figured I'd just get around to it later. I'm so happy I found this and sooooooo thankful to you for doing this. Seriously, thank you. :)
Tom Scott's Chanel is low-key one of the most amazing and underrated on all of UA-cam! I love seeing him shouted out on one of my other favorite Chanel's!
14 keyboards, for a grand total of about 1456 keys. I think there was a 15th keyboard on that laptop, but I think that was to use it as a regular keyboard.
+BaconOnToast I could find use of this in several different applications on workspaces. Since the code is already existing, it is not really a hassle to set-up. Like he said, Animators, video Editors and even CAD users could find this useful. It takes some time to get used to, but it is not really a big deal. As he said, this is to increase efficiency and if you have a work where you don't need to increase efficiency, it is not needed. But if you have one, it is good. Because increasing Efficiency means less Stress at work place.
Man, this is Awesome! I could use it for programming! One key for "public" or for "static". one key adds an if-statement, another one adds a new class...
I set macros on the extra buttons in my gaming mouse for: find & replace, copy, paste, duplicate line, delete line, it really helps me when programming!
+Joanne Anderson maybe you missed the part where I explain that I already used every reasonable combination of ctrl, shift, and alt ? And I SHOW the massive list of shortcuts that I have assigned in premiere? I am so perplexed. Now, what might work, would be for me to program my OWN modifier key. Maybe remap the left windows key. Or use a foot pedal. Or, yes, extra mouse buttons.
5:18 -- I think your flight simulator friends have the right idea -- if you're making a massive extension space for keys, that you only use infrequently, then they should be mounted vertically, so you you don't have to look far from the screen, and then just reach out and hit the key that you see.
I thought it was for the "flight sim" feel, but you're right. that makes a ton of sense. if your monitor is already on top of something on your desk, then you should just fix a keyboard vertically to the book 9or whatever your monitor is on top of)
Absolutely right! i have my keyboards angled under the monitors, but i use VR, the angle lets me look down my headset without having to take it off and i can look the key i want, a fixed position is essential to reduce the amount of time you take your view of the game
@JohnDoesTech well, those are somewhat justifiable since those are more than simple buttons, they are tiny screens on each buttons, but yea, still a bit overpriced
I love that you gave so much credit to the far more impressive 14 keyboard "emoji keyboard" project from Tom Scott. I also love that, while he did explain the basics of how he did it, you actually provided your code. Even given that your code is sloppy and sub-optimal.
I had been wanting to do this for years but couldn't figure out how. Discovered this video this morning, and in 2 hours was up and running. This video has redefined my workflow. Holy crap, thank you so much.
Finally... I have been looking for such a solution for years. Awesome. Even better: It is possible to dismantle old keyboards and Hook custom buttons to the Microcontroller. So... You can build a Keyboard with an entirely custom Layout. Combined With this method, the possibilities are endless.
yes, and you wouldn't even need to use Lua layer. You could make any next keyboard send a sequence of keys with a prefix, so that we could skip transferring data over a textfile. Ahk can catch and recognize the prefix and any code afterwards. Then I would be just careful for the target program to not get accidental inputs not meant yet for it. Also ahk supports vk codes and there's a lot of them.
to remember hotkeys I find it very useful to use Anki, as spaced repetition program. I use it to fairly easy remember hundreds of (self-programmed) hotkeys. Also: I switched to using autohotkey hotstrings rather than creating more hotkeys. hotstrings take a microsecond or so longer to type, but you can type them without having to look away from the screen, which is very useful to not interrupt your workflow. Actually, I think hotstrings like "oas" (plus "tab" to trigger the hotstring) etc. are even easier/faster to type than hotkeys like "ctrl + x".
THIS is the stuff I like to see from this channel. Really unique experimental stuff that almost no one else would cover :) Taran is also a really good host! :)
I really don't understand how there is no software out there to take care of this. install it, identify secondary keyboards and notepads, and create new keys. also, add a key to press and make a Wacom-like pop-up interface that shows you which key has every macro just like elgato desk does, but on the pc's screen. or just a software to allow you create a digital macro keyboard that pops up and you click the button with your mouse. haven't even been able to find a simple method of creating a new modifier key nor to add an existing one to one of the many buttons on my mouse. this seems to be the only option, which is a nightmare for someone who has no idea about programming and only wants some damn additional keys for his gaming and workflow.
If such easy to use software is made and becomes popular, then like dual monitor people will start using dual keyboards and dumb people will think I have two computers as they now think with dual monitor. I think it should be built-in into windows itself
This might be like was Zweiko and Yangem mentioned, but I've heard of software that lets you turn the number pad keys into macros. I think it was some text expander or text replacer software that included a macro function.
I did a search a while ago and found something called MultiKeyboard Macros that seems to do exactly this. Their 1.15 release happened in November 2019, so it might even have been made in response to the sequel to this video.
I don't know why the simpler and more, "laid back" style that Taran hosted LTT videos have, is my favourite for this channel, you just get straight to the point no bullshit
This will help optimize my gaming tournament streams. Even though this is an old video, thanks for sharing your knowledge, thus making my world easier. I swear you are literally the best editor on UA-cam because of this.
If anyone still needs something like this, just get a keyboard with VIA/QMK! I use 4 layers for macros for batching files needed for accounting, export and formatting as well as many other functions! Highly recommended.
If anybodys trying to make a Push to "talk" macro for this just switch the "0" and "1" around on both lines of code. This will reverse the mute into a always mute unless button is held or 2 way press, whichever you prefer. Great Vid!
This is a very impressive and useful video. I'm pleasantly surprised there's a video that goes way beyond mere gadgetry. Great work!! More videos like this please.
The best video for me. I've been searching for a solution for a long time. Yeah I know there are ways to create a button box with a raspberry pi and a keyboard but its to complicated and i don't want to learn to program the raspberry pi. Thanks so much. Tell Linus for me that you should get an award for this video.
I am glad I had a working knowledge on how to use AHK... I don't. This was frustrating and I couldn't get figure it out. This is the only LTT tutorial that I have ever needed and couldn't master. wow

Very awesome man. :) You should definitely consider having custom printed keycaps to replace those... plastic? tape overlays though. Plus it looks awesome.
It's so durable that it took 4 swings into a metal pole to break keys off of it, kinda sad I broke the keyboard out of rage, but it's not very expensive sooo
i had one but the space bar always stayed down, it blocked on the alt keys next to it and if i typed something there was a huge space between everything, so annoying
Really great video! So glad to see someone demonstrating how AutoHotkey can easily interact with the Windows API! Please create some more AutoHotkey videos!
Taren... I officially love you! BTW I will look at the code and try to clean it up for you but again THANK YOU!!! This will save me a LOT of time with some highly redundant programming functions. For this reason I actually had my boss buy me an SteelSeries Apex and yet have used all 22 X 4 macro keys. This will save me quite a bit and my boss the purchase of gaming keyboards for our use!
5:00 is where he FINALLY starts to explain how to make the computer know the difference between typing on keyboard 1 and keyboard 2. EVERYTHING up to 5:00 is just a loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong introduction
This video wrecked my life! I am a Mechanical Engineer and use a 2nd keyboard for CAD functions.... I cannot draw without one now!
