Renoise Shortcut Keyboard

Ideas & suggestions
1

Hi, I have been toying with the idea of having a keyboard made with all the renoise shortcuts printed on. it would probably be a USB keyboard of the flexible rubber style that simply folds up and its ok if you spill anything on it.

The idea would be to have 3 different keyboards 1 for linux 1 for windows and 1 for mac . since they all have slight differences to key shortcuts.

here is an initial sketch of the keys on a macbook keyboard…

I am working from the default shortcuts found here
Im, not sure this is the best design so Im still working on it, I have added some icons but they might be to cryptic? its also hard to squeeze a lot of information on one button. So Im still working on different graphic layouts. Im open to suggestions?

What do you think?
What would you expect to pay for something like this?

What do you think?
Perhaps an idea how you can squeeze a lot of info on one button:

the idea is thats its a portable silicone keyboard you can hammer, get wet have dust whatever spill on it and it can keep going

Maybe, this is a bit related thing;

When I googled about the skin for APC20, I found this site where you can design decals for midi-controler, synth, keyboard shortcut etc, as you like. (It costs some money though)

If you click the keyboard image on this linked page (it’s for Ableton though :rolleyes: ;) ), designer app will open.
Not only for a keyboard shortcut, it is interesting to design skins for midi controllers.

P.S. I have not bought a decal from the site yet actually. Maybe in the future… :)

I wanted to give this a bump because as it turns out I would really love the ability for me to have a keyboard shortcut list printed on some keys as I make or I am making in the future some split 3-D printed keyboards and this would be a great idea for sure! Even for someone who has a USB keyboard just a stick this stuff on!

Bump-ie bump bump :wink:

I don’t know if I’m on the correct forum or not, I have a basic issue. I’ve lost all quick commands Like "Control C, Control V, Control X). etc All of it is missing from my app now and doesn’t work anymore. Any idea why? It isn’t happening anywhere else on my computer with any other apps.

this problem started in windows 10. it is related to the language layout of the keyboard. I have two languages ​​on the keyboard - Russian and English. when I launch Renoise, and my layout is switched to Russian - all standard shortcuts (ctrl-c, ctrl-x etc) disappear. I have to restart Renoise with the English layout, press reset in the KEYS settings and load my custom keybindings file. this is very annoying but it seems there is no other solution to this problem… no other software on my windows except Renoise have such bug.

Thank you. I reinstalled the app and same thing and yes my keyboard is Thai / English so that makes sense. Hopefully this gets fixed in future versions. I appreciate you confirming that for me.
