Product description
Transform repetitive computer tasks into a single button press with this kit. Macro Pad is a USB-C connected programmable keyboard. Surface-mounted (SMD) components are pre-assembled, while the through-hole components are soldered in place by you. The five included MX-compatible mechanical switches provide clear tactile feedback, while the rotary encoder with included knob can be used for volume control or other programmable functions. Each key can be programmed with a function macro. The product is based on the RP2040 microcontroller and comes pre-programmed with functions such as play/pause, microphone mute/unmute, and volume control. Functions are customized through QMK's web-based configurator (open-source). The keyboard is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux.
