The iTunes controller. ‘More Rock’ and ‘Less Rock’ control volume. The bottom four activate iTunes playlists.
The green section turns on the different programs I run most often. The top row triggers Chrome, Photoshop, Premiere, After Effects and iTunes.
These two panels trigger keyboard shortcuts for Premiere (top) and Photoshop (bottom). I didn’t want to tie the panel into a specific apps, so the names are slightly changed. ‘Disenhance’ is ‘Blur’
The top four switches control the control panel (brightness, backlight, ect) Bottom controls the panel’s AI mastermind override (currently broken).
The finished product. Features 100 programmable buttons and switches that do all sorts of fun things.
