    I am glad to see someone else present a project in a prototype-y sort of state. It helps combat that notion that everything needs to be perfect or IS always perfect when making these sorts of devices/builds and associate videos. Thanks for keeping it real! Subbed!

    I've got around five or six Android tablets just laying around, I can easily write my own software to control them _like_ a stream deck but what I really want are physical buttons with mini-displays on them. I'm thinking of cheating it by using transparent switches over an Android tablet. I just have to finish the other 8,932,234 projects I've started and never completed.
