Keyboard and encoder
Section titled “Keyboard and encoder”A USB keyboard works: keys 1 to 8 act as the footswitches and t taps the tempo. A rotary
encoder wired to the GPIO drives every page without the touch screen: turn to move, press to
open or adjust, hold to go back. Holding on a main page opens a page switcher. See
the encoder.
