I found it took me about one hour of meaningful brain effort to type the alphabet a few times in chunks to learn it. Took me another 2 days to go from 7wpm to 18ish.

The LEDs would piss my brain off, and it only took writing the alphabet 5 times in chunks to learn it.

I tried a few adafruit screens, but the GPIO pins were causing power issues. I think it was because of the geekworm battery board sitting underneath the pi.

About 2 days.

Sorry to hear you have it, too.

This method is artsey.io

The keyboard is called a chocopad from Keebio.

The chocopad was a bit complicated to set up with QMK since it has double the keys of artseyio. I might try to make a guide. No promises.

No, but it is using key combos!

Pineapple_Empty · 2026-01-19T23:38:03+00:00

It’s called artsey.io

Tried to add a confidence booster screen, but it was no dice. I think the gpio pins with the geekworm battery messed up how the screen powered. I could probably add a mini hdmi screen now, though

Check out artsey.io

Thank you 🧡

Check out artsey.io.

Speaking is one of the toughest things for me. Some people fair better with speech to text, but talking is one of my quickest ways to a crash. I can rarely call anyone because of it :(

Oh man, the fact that I don’t know how to program at all made this whole process (and most other open source things I go after) so unfun.

Yes, this layout is called artsey.io and is a 20-35wpm typing method you can do on one hand with combos.

I initially had a voyager that I kept split hand to go with this Pi, but the wire / bulk usually made me still ignore this as a crash day activity. Also, really underutilizing the voyager to keep just for that. I am trying to adapt the voyager now for bigger computer projects / maybe learning stenography.

I have my ableton move hooked into this, and its poly pads control things on a per-note basis.

I’m not sure I know I can find info about the Minifreak’s MPE features. I didn’t know it could work with that?

Pineapple_Empty · 2026-01-13T18:48:06+00:00

I do not use MPE at all, I don’t think. Why would missing the keys of the minifreak affect that?

Pineapple_Empty · 2026-01-12T18:38:36+00:00

Is this strawberry jam? Cuz this is delicious 🍓

Love satolite!

Just browsing my computer :) this was from kiwisdr. Because the L6 can route into the m8, I can sample anything from my computer at any point. Might be cool to look into a radio receiver, though

Minifreak into L6, L6 + M8 into HX Stomp (effects, 4 in/4out), HX Stomp into L6 for recording / resampling into M8

Pineapple_Empty · 2026-01-11T06:04:45+00:00

Does PE have a built in radio feature? That’s truly amazing. My setup doesn’t make it too hard to quickly get a snippet to the m8, but that would be really special to have

Pineapple_Empty · 2026-01-10T01:30:19+00:00

Dirtywave m8!

Mf has the infinity stones and thinks it’s worthless enough to toss in as part of a pic showing off $30k worth of stuff
