Now that's curious.

Though it's a test generator, so perhaps it's just intended to support arbitrary sequences.

But because I'm manipulating the pins in Emacs, I manage to keep up with people who have real keyboards.]]>https://forum.fedi.dk/post/https://kfogel.org/objects/fa7fd210-3e04-4282-97ee-a361b268730fhttps://forum.fedi.dk/post/https://kfogel.org/objects/fa7fd210-3e04-4282-97ee-a361b268730fMon, 15 Jun 2026 04:21:23 GMT<![CDATA[Reply to Who needs a keyboard on Mon, 15 Jun 2026 04:20:41 GMT]]>@mwichary oooh is this reusing pin matrices that also got used on synths? What are they originally for?

I think each line is a character encoding. Like ASCII, but before ASCII.

I love the “QUICK BROWN FOX” setting.

Does “PROG SEQUENCE” produce a King Crimson riff?

And I like gear that has a whole panel section for “DISTORTION”
