Ocreeb MK2 is the second iteration of my macropad project. This version features the XIAO RP2040, hotswap sockets support, a detachable switch plate, an OLED screen and I'm exploring a fun new idea inspired by the Monogram Creative Console - a custom magnetic connector that lets me attach all sorts of external modules to make different layouts. Join me as I try to design and build the modular macropad system that kind of works 😅

This is why i love open source projects, i've had this idea in my head for years but never got around to designing and making it. Now i dont need to and can just tailor these designs to my needs. Awesome project!
Same feelings!
Hi, may i ask what kind of knowledge I need to learn inorder to do everything He did in the video? Right now I'm studying C++ in college first year and try to selftaught Python.
The content on this channel is WAY too good to only have 36k subs. Hope your channel blows up, my dude. Sweet project, as always.
Agreed!
What my sub isn't good enough for you?
Yess ❤
Just subbed. Luckiest find of 2024 so far!!!
Let it grow at its rhythm. 38K with only 4 video, that's performance, man.
Don't push Salim to play the "youtube" game by click-baiting (GreatScott admitted it), doing stupid joke and storytelling and useless scenery (like Sean Hogdins unfortunately :/)
DO NOT FORGET: the making and learning are the "interest" of these video, not your "film making" skill.
@Salim: if you do that or create a thumbnail with a wide open mouth, I unsub right away! :P
Yeah dude, the editing is top notch and the project is even better. Maybe a work space tour for an upcoming video? Looks like a relatively small space but it’s action packed with great stuff.
Thanks! it's a small space indeed but I try to make it work. Maybe some day we do a tour yeah!
The interrupt fix can be that you buffer data on the module side. Meaning if there is a press, you put it into a buffer, and when the main modules comes to read it, you are not losing any data. Yes, you will have a small delay, but still with no data loss.
I would suggest the next version to have CAN Bus, as its a multi-master system and you can send messages directly to the main host, but also to the modules as well.
Awesome project!
Dude, I am blown away by your creativity and technical follow through. Huge inspiration. Thank you!
Just have to say, I love that idea with the golden pads on the side. Being made from small PCB's that slot in and then solders. That is brilliant! Thanks so much for that idea!
Great job on the video! Your explanation of the development process and design decisions is clear and easy to follow. I appreciate that you highlight the weaknesses and suggest improvements. Keep up the excellent work!
Everything was so clean. I almost got depressed about my DIY until you added those tiny bits of hot glue) What a relief)
😂 the funny thing is I was going to make a bracket when I was designing the enclosure and I refrained and decided not to waste more time and just use good ol hot glue 😂
Wow glad I clicked on this video. Criminally underrated. Great job on the project! As some who also has built custom macro pads I can only imagine the hours of blood sweet and tears into this and glad to see you got it working. Keep it up!
This is such fantastic production quality! The editor is genius and the way they are structured are absolutely fantastic!!! Well done, Salim!
Incredible production value, both of the build and the video. What a gem!
What an insane project to share with us, i loved every second of it, Thanks for sharing this with us.
WOW this was one of the most incredible DIY projects i've seen related to macropads and stuff.. I had a similar project a few years ago, but I lack some technical skills and left this project aside. Now, with your project in mind, I've got inspired again. Thank you! And congratulations for this awesome project!
To say I'm impressed would be an understatement, this video inspired and sparked a motivation in me.
Thank you for making this video
Thank you! I appreciate it
This project looks absolutely cool! The modular idea is really great and makes it easy to experiment with different modules. This could be really interesting and helpful for beginners. It's also nice to see someone showing the problems that occurred while making the project. You often see such great projects with no problems whatsoever. And if you try to make it on your own it doesn't work as easy as it seems on other videos. Really great! 👍
Can't appreciate sharing your inspirations enough, brings much more depth to explaining the design thinking of the project.
that is a bananas project. amazing work. also the things that we can now do in personal labs is crazy nowadays. the polish that the resulting modules exhibit is superb!!! also great video editing. somewhat overshadow part of the video since the project is by far the most captivating thing in it.
Will 100% be adding this to my list of future projects. I had the OG Pallet Gear before they changed to Moment and I loved how it worked. Design(s) look beautiful and being able to have those hotswap keys so if I am working in a shared space I can have quieter keys or if I decide to use it for something like gamin I can have a more tactile or clicky key is just genius.
you are such an inspiration!!! i can't believe how many disciplines you have under your belt to be able to make such a bespoke hardware interface. i just subscribed
Amazing as always Salim!!! Thanks for all the help with my projects recently too. Love your channel!
The amount of knowledge and abilities put into this is just ovewhelming, awesome project. You just got a new subscriber.
Head this idea in mind for a very long time as well, I'm very impressed with your work and passion. Thanks to show it and mostly, to make it even open source. Thanks a lot
I think that you've learned so much in a short amount of time, on top of having good production value makes you a very underrated channel in my opinion.
You’ve become my favourite TH-camr, Salim. Another really great project and the time and effort you take to explain your successes and failures is refreshing. Looking forward to your next project.
Damn this is really next level, fantastic project and quality content! - Happy to finally the YT waking up and promoting creators that deserve it.
I graduated back in the day in electronics but for the past 12+ years I've been pursuing art as a career. Seeing stuff like this makes me want to pick up the soldering iron again
Congrats! Very good job. Thank you for make this free to everyone!
Regarding your performance issues: you may be able to speed things up by writing your signal interpreter in C and compile to a dynamic library (.dll on windows, .so on *NIX). Using the Ctypes (uctypes in circuitpython) module , you can import it as a python module and call your functions while benefiting from C-level performance.
Thanks for the suggestion! I will look into it. You're right maybe this will work way faster for the custom address pulse I was tinkering with.
Or even Rust
@@joe-skeen Rust is great if you already know Rust and need it to do something. It is a terrible idea if you dont. Learning curve is Dwarven Fortress like.
Dynamic libraries aren't a thing for circuitpython (a loader probably wouldn't even fit in memory). You need to statically compile it into with the runtime. I couldn't find any up to date guides, but I think you just have to copy what the other modules in `circuitpython/shared-module` do.
That will definitely blow up. Almost full coverage of subscribers is 19 hours, amazing quality and cool b-roll. Keep going and you'll get it!
What an amazing project! Beautifully done.
Awww man this project, 1st time seeing this channel, the print procces is so well done
Man, I love your content. This video was suggested to me by the algorithm and I clicked it because it is a very specific topic that is of interest to me but also I vaguely remembered watching your video about the first macro pad. As usual when someones content impresses me I checked out your channel and my mind was blown - "omg, it's the same guy that made the DIY space mouse" I thought as I had that video in my 'watch later' for some time now but never got around to actually watching it. Well, now I got around to it as my adhd brain hyperfixated on learning Fusion the last 3 days and already wants more control so it was a perfect combo. In that video I noticed your CRT Rapsberry so naturally I had to watch that video as well and was impressed as well. Your workflow is great and you do a great job presenting it. As well as documenting it on instructables and github? I must be dreaming :o Do you have a background in design? You pay attention to details, your creations are great in function but visually beautiful as well. The idea with a PCB as a front plate instead of a sticker was amazing. You really are an inspiration for me and my projects!
That's some of the BEST maker content out there. Keep it up mate!
Your videos,organitation and design are the perfection
This was a really fun watch. I'm glad this popped up on my feed!
Need more videos and the workspace setup is so on point!
Your projects are insanely good! Mind-blowing attention to detail from product design to video editing.
thank you!
Dude you are awesome, excited to see you continue to grow!
I've been planning to do this for sooooooooo long. Nice someone finally made it. Great work. Subscribed.
This is remarkable. I am going to be tuning in deeply to this project.
Love this project! Such a great video. Keep up the good work!
you are quite good. with persistence and consistency (a quality video every couple months is great) you will continue to do well
This concept is unreal!
Ive yearned for this kind of platform for such a long time to build up a MIDI controller for a portable recording studio Ive built. Using a handful of the faders and the button/encoder combo units would nail that.
Also the resin based printing is incredible. It looks flawless compared to extrusion driven prints.
What a killer project man, video was super in depth and well edited
3:52 so I was mildly interested in this video because of the modular aspect, and I was curious how you planned the board layouts, … and then saw this right here 😮
Instant subscribe. This is a masterclass in “it’s not the tool, it’s how you use it.”
thank you! I appreciate it
Amazing skills all the way. It was nice to see the whole production from a to z. Thank you!
The fact that you made these all by yourself is impressive. Great work!
Mindblowing! Thanks for uploading.
Just discovered your channel. You are developing and tinkering with things, just like I would love to do if I had the time these days. Keep up the great work 👍
Amazing detail. Nice work!
We need more videos on TH-cam with this quality. 40K subs?! You deserve more man. This video got the editing of a premium commercial video. Keep it up.
Man this is an impressive work you pulled. I'm sincerely amazed :O
This is a really impressive project! I also started building custom keyboard because of the super inspirational Mirage keyboard that Zack is working on!
Looking forward to the next one.
Amazing project and great vid!
Seriously a great video. hope you keep making content because you are bound to blow up.
Wow, you put so much effort in this video. It's just amazing!
Professional level production on both video and product.
Thanks a lot for the instructables, salim. You are a kickass maker! 🙌
absolutely genuis, love the work!
Wow. Very high production value on this video! I'm impressed! You won a subscribe for that alone. Not to mention KEEEEEEEEB!
I love this.
I would dig faders and even motorized faders alot.
Many modern composers use similar tools like the monogram to control the expressions of virtual instruments over midi commands, and its really useful and would be a great cheaper alternative to the monogram.
my man, this is some next level stuff!!!
Thats really impressive. Cool project!
What a cool project and editing😍😍 keep it up !
Awesome project, thanks for sharing!
Amazing Project! Keep it up
This is really cool! I am glad you showed up on my youtube feed.
