A keyboard matrix circuit is a design used in most electronic musical keyboards and computer keyboards in which the key switches are connected by a grid of wires, similar to a diode matrix. For example, 16 wires arranged in 8 rows and 8 columns can connect 64 keys—sufficient for a full five octaves of range (61 notes).
In the 2000s, Kurzweil introduced the PC2 Series of keyboards that contained the famed Triple Strike Piano and used a V.A.S.T. synthesis engine similar to the K2xxx series, and later introduced the PC1 Series, which was a slightly cut down version of the PC2, losing only the KB3 organ mode, and some inputs and outputs.
Mechanical keyboards (or mechanical-switch keyboards) are computer keyboards which have an individual switch for each key. The following table is a compilation list of mechanical keyboard models, brands, and series:
Hot-swappable keyboards are keyboards in which switches can be pulled out and replaced without requiring the typical solder connection. [7] [8] Instead of the switch pins being directly soldered to the keyboard's PCB, hot-swap sockets are instead soldered on. Hot-swap sockets can allow users to change different switches out of the keyboard ...
A Miracle system keyboard (NES edition) The Miracle Piano Teaching System consists of a keyboard, connecting cables, power supply, soft foot pedals, and software. The software comes either on 3.5" floppy disks for personal computers or on cartridges for video game consoles. After the supplied MIDI keyboard is connected to a console or computer ...
The Piano Roll window displays a track's MIDI note and program-change data in a window that resembles a player piano roll: It shows notes as multi-pixel-thick, dark-blue line segments. The user can edit data using many useful mechanisms, such as being able to turn on note-velocity display, which is then shown as a thin vertical line at the left ...
QMK (Quantum Mechanical Keyboard [2]) is open-source firmware for microcontrollers that control computer keyboards. [3] [4] [5] The QMK Configurator is freely available software which facilitates designing keyboard layouts and then turning them into firmware files. The QMK Toolkit is freely available software which facilitates the flashing or ...
