Hey... How can I implement this using a 61 keybed . without using multiplexer

Hey... How can I implement this using a 61 keybed . without using multiplexer

have you already taken it apart? how many ins and outs are on the pcb? what's your microcontroller?

Thanks for the reply.. yes I have 8x8x8 matrix for a 61key novation ks4

And a I was using a teensy 3.2 but I have 2 megas and some nanos and picos

Thanks for the reply.. yes I have 8x8x8 matrix for a 61key novation ks4

for 8x8 without multiplexer, you'd need 8 digital outputs and 8 digital inputs. if you have 2 multuplexers (1 to select input and 1 to select output), you'd only need 6 outputs and 2 inputs on your microcontroller.. btw arduino micro is good because it's already a compliant usb device

Ok. I will get some of those then

I guess 8x 16 is the correct way to say it.. 8 ins 16 outs

I guess 8x 16 is the correct way to say it.. 8 ins 16 outs

okay then you'd probably need 3 multiplexers (cd4051) + 9 digital i/o pins:

3 outputs to set the input channel of the mux1
3 outputs to set the output channels of mux2 + mux3 (can be connected together)
1 output to write the input of mux1
1 input to read the output of mux2
1 input to read the output mux3

maybe I am slightly off, but I guess you could double check yourself

How would I change the code to work with 25 keys with out the multiplexers?

that depends on your microcontroller pins and the exact arrangement of your keyboard pcb.. I cannot write the code for you, but I could give you some hints if you get stuck with a more specific problem.
