Hey Taran, your video presence and overall feel and comfortableness as well as insterestingness has increased drastically. You should do more videos, as they are very fun to watch and extremely refreshing. A real pleasure to watch, keep going!
I am 95% certain I’ll never find myself in a situation in life where I’ll need to utilize this information, but this was genuinely (in my opinion) the most intriguing video I’ve experienced on this channel in quite some time. Truly living up to the name of the channel. Not to say the other videos aren’t. But I feel this goes above and beyond. Maybe I just missed seeing Taran in videos. Who else misses the old crew? Also Channel Super Fun? Oh nostalgia...
stokos123 basically a macro is like keybinds. With the extra keyboards he can click w on one and it will undo something in a program. It just depends on what you bind each key to.
Every few years, the planets align and The Taran is allowed to exit his den. Upon seeing first light, The Taran is confused - Why so few macros The Taran asks? Why does this creature have only one keyboard? The Taran cannot allow this and plans his attack. The unsuspecting computer user is unaware of the fact that it is possible, or necessary, to use 12 keyboards with his computer. As the computer user types away on his single un-ergonomic keyboard that obviously causes far too much overexertion of their index finger, The Taran strikes. The Taran reveals his secret move: ULTIMATE MACRO and the user is completely overwhelemed by the fact that now he must memorize no fewer than 1400 new key instructions on their new setup, but The Taran has claimed victory, for while the user may need to exert far too much brain power and memory, the user may now save his hands from multiple key presses for the rest of their life.
Basically, he explains all the options for productivity freaks and games that play simulator games in full simulation mode that need more than 1 keyboard to do things. QMK lets you take cheapest keyboard that you can buy (or have laying around) and turn it into productivity panel. For example, you can print icons that tell you what kind of macro is on a key and glue them to every key on keyboard that is connected to computer with QMK. Why would you do that? BECAUSE pressing ctrl+alt+shift+F3, down arrow, down arrow, left arrow (or some other combination) would become painful rather quickly, especially if you have tons of such combinations for video editing software, photoshop and similar. For example, let's say you need to press up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A Imagine that you need to do it all the time to get something done quickly and it repeats 30~40 times a day. And there are other combinations that are also used 30~40 times a day. Macro can do it in about 1~2 seconds (depending on how fast your PC works and can, without lagging, accept the inputs to get things done right). By hand (manually) it would take a lot more seconds (depends on combination and sequence) to get same result AND you need to remember ALL THE COMBINATIONS in your head. Now imagine that you need to get something done, but instead you try to remember "what is a combination to quickly select tagged items?". Time gets wasted on 'sitting at the desk and staring at the screen'. So instead of memorizing combinations you can get a QMKs and a bunch of cheapest keyboards and then print out what each key does. Will it take some time to do? Yes, it will. Will the time it has taken to set up the workspace help in months and months of mundane work? Yes, it will. For games like Arma 3 or War Thunder an additional keyboard is useful. Here, look: ruclips.net/video/b_sOUn8_JAM/видео.html Try using Full Real controls in War Thunder without running out of keys to press on single keyboard. That's what this video is about.
Taran I think at this point building a proper cockpit style rig with a custom frame for all your keys is the next step, like link up several of these USB adapters perhaps and build your own Star Trek style control panel. Make it so!
Yeah, but it'd be a lot of effort just for something that LOOKS cool: www.reddit.com/r/DIY/comments/3hq8ox/i_built_a_fullyfunctional_overhead_control_panel/
Do a quick search for "KSP custom control panel" on Google or RUclips and you will see some excellent examples. People have been making things like this for years for all sorts of games and it's actually pretty simple. If you want to get into something like this, pick up an Arduino Uno to start learning. If you want keyboard (AND MOUSE/JOYSTICK!) emulation, you need something like a Teensy or different model of Arduino, but you literally just wire up any button you like and program it to act like a certain key.
Taran, along with being an amazing editor, is actually a pretty fantastic RUclips personality. Would definitely enjoy seeing more frequent videos with him in it! and I'm sure they don't do as well in the algorithm, but more videos for us extra nerdy types out there would be awesome. Really enjoyed this video. Keep it up!
@Werse VarsityThanks, I totally forgot to mention that. I love his channel! And it's really cool he does that when he can in his free time. More videos on LTT would be awesome so it was supported by the company, but I hope he continues to post over there for the more niche content!
he has his own youtube, he doesn't post often but he still has it. his youtube: ruclips.net/channel/UCd0ZD4iCXRXf18p3cA7EQfg but before you sub to him i suggest watching this: ruclips.net/video/pIXbthOn1Oo/видео.html
I'm on board with this as well. Taran makes a great presenter and apparently, whenever Linus lets him out from the editing chair, he has a lot to say! Cheers!
To be fair though, obtaining the code is not enough. Besides, github allows to download the code from the browser as an archive, so that would be easier. However, compiling this thing on pure windows would probably be difficult, since it is probably developed with an linux environment in mind. And it isn't really a VM, it's Windows Subsystem for Linux. It's more like what wine is rather than a fully fledged vm.
window 10 have integrated bash terminal. you have to enable it. and that's whats he did. i am a linux user too, and i find amusing that this is a form of microsoft to say, cmd and powershell are garbage, here you can use bash now.
Macro keys are different keys you can customize your own shortcuts to. Its really only useful if your using your computer for extreme productivity. Much like a LTT editor.
Thinks “why is Taran narrating this video?” “This USB adapter allows you to turn your keyboard into a fully programable keyboard” Instantly thinks “ohhhhh...”
I'm all like, WTF DID I JUST WATCH? Why not just make a piece of software for the dongle that allows you to assign the keyboard that's plugged into it to the various keys you need? That would make shit much simpler.
I will most likely never do anything that Taren is talking about in any video, from video editing to electric bikes to keyboards. But i will watch every single one because they're always so damn good.
Too bad Taran doesn't do more stuff in front of the camera, he has a lot of charisma especially when speaking about a subject he's really passionate about. Then again more time he's in front of the camera is one less editor out of LMG editing suite to crank out videos.
hes probably thier best editor. Look at all the effort hes done to streamline and make his work more efficient. thats a good worker if ive ever seen one, my god. hes a master at his craft.
runninggames771 Ed is also amazing. He always adds little touches that are just awesome. Check out when they decorate Linus’s office, the music and lights is an example.
Taran, you might have a weird keyboard fetish but jesus christ you know everything about keyboards. Absolutely brilliant, I'll never use this but this is super awesome.
11:38 Oh hey, that's *my* blog post! Also, I thoroughly recommend everyone use a Hasu USB converter over my approach - unless you happen to want to screw around with the innards of a Model M keyboard for fun. (Like I did, because I have five of them!)
@@alexkevhikes The modified TMK firmware I've got on the teensy just boots up into usb keyboard mode every time, doesn't need changing unless I want to tweak the code
This guy put a HUGE amount of work in this video..... plus all of his how to videos.... man... a whole new level of geek, can't believe I was like that 30 years ago. Job well done on scripting, shooting, editing, comedy and delivery / performance.
Taran the God of productivity ... while 80+% of Humanity is not even using Copy and Paste Stortcuts. But lets be honest you should make an online e-learning course on optimizing personal workflows... I truly think you are way ahead than most of us and i would truly love to see more such content. Great Video!
If you already have Linux installed, this can all be bundled in a little script. And even without script, copy-pasting commands is easier than following a series of gui screenshots that will be obsolete next year.
Me! I am pretty good with computers but this stuff is confusing! I can troubleshoot, build and very light programming with the best of them but, I am out!
I think that everyone at LTT would be awesome host, but they're already doing something else (great example of this by my opinion was Max, but Taran also looks good).
You are a mad man! I love it! As a programmer, I always appreciated your enthusiasm for your job, and the tutorials you are making. You are even providing us with sources to your config through GitHub. Nicely done!
this is by far one the best videos ive seen on your channel - I've trying to perfect my workflow with my surrounding hardware for a long time but this is a revelation. and it feels good to know that I am not the only one thinking those ways in terms of interfaces. Thanks Taran!
Taran, don't listen to the haters. Engineers do this all the time to reduce redundent work. In fact, a good part of an efficient engineers time is spent working on macros to do non value added work like retyping the same commands over and over 3000 times. The rest of their work is spent ACTUALLY figuring out how to solve problem, not the act of solving the problem itself. Just how we now use calculators to add, subtract, divide, multiply, on and on.
The majority of GOOD engineers are lazy as fuck. That's why a good engineer tends to setup such things, altough it requires some effort. However, after a single tedious setup, it works and in all the time they would need to do brainless clicking, they are now able to some work that actually requires brain or to simply sipp some coffee. Or at least any engineer I've met in my life, that was GOOD, was a brutally lazy folk, avoiding work as much they could. That's also how you can tell apart the best students. The best folks in university aren't the ones that are learing non stop without a break, but those who get similar or at least close results, without putting to much effort in.
Hey listen me up, I think Taran should buy a heck lot of keycaps and switches and connect them all somehow with a pcb and arduino or something and make a desk full of macros! :D That would look so uniform on a desk, like, imagine.
Working as a Service Desk Analyst, I use AHK quite extensively and found more use in context-sensitive scripts. I.e. if I have certain window opened Caps Lock does one thing, but if I have another one it does different thing. Very cool stuff indeed
Speak for yourself peasant (i would like to clarify to any sensitive people who read this its a joke a sarcastic sentence do not take as anything else)
Next video: cnc'ing the perfect desk top for keyboard management. How to quantify time saved verses time spent on each macro. How many pedals do you use for video editing? How midi can be used to turn an electronic piano into a near infinite macro keyboard.
I found that part (12:51-End) really cringey because that shit is old and is past it’s prime. Once 7 year olds started doing it, it started to piss me off and cringe me out.
Watching this video is like finding a github repository for a project that has everything laid out for you, good text formatting, links to already built executables, and make files that just work
This is exactly what I've been looking for! Being a quadriplegic, I should be able to program the Ctrl, All and Shift keys as "sticky keys" so I would not have to be in an OS to use it. If anyone has heard of this already, shoot me a message.
Can we get wayyyy more videos from Taran too, all that stuff sounded way too complicated for me, but for some reason I think I just might give it a shot, thx Big T !!! :)
He's also the joke writer, joke editor, joke special effect, joke location scouting, joke unit b director, joke catering, joke wardrobe, and joke assistant
Taran: Thank you very much!!! Linus, please encourage your team for more videos like this. Honestly one of the most useful videos I've seen for the last year! Lots of IT pros and programmers will really appreciate this info.

Taran for me has the most honest and direct humor on all over youtube, haha he is great! And as an editor is the best I've seen so far.
More Taran please. I know he's busy with editing, but he'd be an awesome host. Think it over, pleeeeease?
I think that everyone at LTT would be awesome host, but they're already doing something else (great example of this by my opinion was Max, but Taran also looks good).
@@Astra3yt Not everyone... There is one for sure that is best left to off camera duties.

No, I don't like change
Taran is in the grey area of cringe and funny. Keep it up lol
Azri Azhari
As is Austin Evans.
Azri Azhari
As is Linus
No, no. He's pretty squarely in cringe territory. But the content is interesting and informative, so I'll tolerate it.
and excited nerd
He does the linus character better than linus.
You are a mad man! I love it!
As a programmer, I always appreciated your enthusiasm for your job, and the tutorials you are making.
You are even providing us with sources to your config through GitHub.
Nicely done!
this is by far one the best videos ive seen on your channel - I've trying to perfect my workflow with my surrounding hardware for a long time but this is a revelation. and it feels good to know that I am not the only one thinking those ways in terms of interfaces. Thanks Taran!
Taran, don't listen to the haters. Engineers do this all the time to reduce redundent work. In fact, a good part of an efficient engineers time is spent working on macros to do non value added work like retyping the same commands over and over 3000 times. The rest of their work is spent ACTUALLY figuring out how to solve problem, not the act of solving the problem itself. Just how we now use calculators to add, subtract, divide, multiply, on and on.
The majority of GOOD engineers are lazy as fuck. That's why a good engineer tends to setup such things, altough it requires some effort. However, after a single tedious setup, it works and in all the time they would need to do brainless clicking, they are now able to some work that actually requires brain or to simply sipp some coffee.
Or at least any engineer I've met in my life, that was GOOD, was a brutally lazy folk, avoiding work as much they could. That's also how you can tell apart the best students. The best folks in university aren't the ones that are learing non stop without a break, but those who get similar or at least close results, without putting to much effort in.
Taran really takes after Linus' segway ability
Linus must be so proud
Hey listen me up, I think Taran should buy a heck lot of keycaps and switches and connect them all somehow with a pcb and arduino or something and make a desk full of macros! :D That would look so uniform on a desk, like, imagine.
They could totally CNC him a huge keyboard and then create the PCB and add the keys. Would 100% watch
I thought the same, would make an awesome project video! Get on it Alex!
yes
HECK YEAH!
Linus pls
it's the shear passion and dedication that makes me rewatch this every now and then
12:49
Taran is a fellow 9/14 year old and he did his part!
:O :O :O
HEY We're 14 now
@@howardt12345 Oh, right. Tho tbh, "fellow 9 year old" is a meme by itself already, so eeeeeh? Actually fine, I'll fix it to "9/14"
@@maximmax42 I refer to myself as 9/11 pls fix
But can your keyboard do this????
I don't even need 1 macro, why did I watch all of this?
I don't even know what a macro is but this hypnotised me
I don't even have a computer.
You watched it for the end “Subcribe to pewdiepie”
If you do anything on a computer that creates or edits something, you can use a macro.
Its ok man, I watched his 4 hour how he edits in Adobe Premiere video, I don't even need to edit vids...
Probably the best LTT video on a while. Thank god there's finally some depth. GJ Taran.
Zero interest in this topic. Loved the video. Please make more.
Talk Nerdy to Me.
That like number is never moving again XD
doo doo do do
Nerd ooooo
Let me stick my dongle into your parallel port.
"inserts sexy sax"
Taran Plotting to take over LTT.
With a macro
1)Just watch another video of LTT
2)watch carefully as the host speaks the script
3)you know exactly who wrote it...
I accept and welcome our new overlord.
wow, jacksepticeye really let himself go.
LMAO
i will never unsee it thank you
you win!
LMAO
Working as a Service Desk Analyst, I use AHK quite extensively and found more use in context-sensitive scripts. I.e. if I have certain window opened Caps Lock does one thing, but if I have another one it does different thing. Very cool stuff indeed
Instant like for a Taran Vid
Macro king gives us pity and helps us macro peasants
Speak for yourself peasant (i would like to clarify to any sensitive people who read this its a joke a sarcastic sentence do not take as anything else)
I am a simple man, I see Taran video... I press macro... I mean like
C r i n g e
Use me as an "I am sad Taran is leaving" button.
You just made the best macro keyboard review around, but none who needs it will ever find it since LTT gave it a stupid title...
except the 8 million real nerds who are subscribed
Yeah. They could just add "... and everything about keyboard macros in workflow" to the end.
They'll change the title in a day or two like they usually do with half their videos.
They have so many helpful videos. But no way to search for them. So frustrating.
Yeah I hate the stupid clickbait titles.
Next video: cnc'ing the perfect desk top for keyboard management.
How to quantify time saved verses time spent on each macro.
How many pedals do you use for video editing?
How midi can be used to turn an electronic piano into a near infinite macro keyboard.
Using my thoughts as macros
Pedals lol :D
How to use your breath as a macro device.
omg i want the piano keyboard to be a thing
BEHOLD, THE KING OF MACROS HAVE RETURNED
I'll miss this guy at LTT
This video was very... Taran.
*_This guy is LVL.100 Boss Keyboard !_*
That's how Taran works!
Me: "must find problem to this solution"
And there is none... other than the fact that i understood nothing
get into motion graphics/video editing. then get very hardcore into it and obsessed with productivity. that's how you find problem to this solution
This guy reminds of that other dude with glasses who also loved keyboards and was also named Taran . . . . hmmm . . . .
Yeah that guy just releases troll videos
I swear Taran... You seem to be the only one on LTT who still actually gives useful tech tips. Thank you!
12:50 LTT joins Pewdiepie vs T-series battle 🤣
I found that part (12:51-End) really cringey because that shit is old and is past it’s prime. Once 7 year olds started doing it, it started to piss me off and cringe me out.
@@cashwood Your opinions don't matter if you can't spell cringy.
You know a meme is old when LTT uses it... But thats ok in this case
Christian Jason Mayor BUT CAN YOU DO THIS???
@@cashwood It's a bookend, because the title was a Pewds reference too.
Watching this video is like finding a github repository for a project that has everything laid out for you, good text formatting, links to already built executables, and make files that just work
I'd love Taran to do at least one TechLink episode!!!!
or techquickie
Sweet, now im going to make my 'Taran is in a video, open video NOW' macro
linus' lankier gayer cousin
the amount of macros for runescape now is endless
@@layth888 would probably get me banned since automating anything using ahk is close to botting in the game it has its uses tho
@@Michael_Unce True :P
Taran needs to do more of these!
Gotta say, Taran got me into AHK a few years back and saves me a bunch of time at work!
If Teran ever leaves LTT they're gonna need to hire at least 3 more editors to keep up.
Taran videos are why I get out of bed. All hail the macro king.
The macro king hath transcended divine rights. He is now the MACRO GOD!
This is exactly what I've been looking for! Being a quadriplegic, I should be able to program the Ctrl, All and Shift keys as "sticky keys" so I would not have to be in an OS to use it. If anyone has heard of this already, shoot me a message.
Oh hello Jackspedicey 2
Jesus?
Jack Spicer?!
Can we get wayyyy more videos from Taran too, all that stuff sounded way too complicated for me, but for some reason I think I just might give it a shot, thx Big T !!! :)
linus' lankier gayer cousin
He has his own channel with helpful videos and shenanigans.
Start with just AutoHotkey
So uhh did taran edit his own video editing another video to make a video about editing using macros? 🤔
12:45 for all producers
Yes. He was also writer, host, and edit manager
surprised he didn't add himself a shine or flying powers right|?
He's also the joke writer, joke editor, joke special effect, joke location scouting, joke unit b director, joke catering, joke wardrobe, and joke assistant
Taran is underrated. I want more Taran screen time!
Soon taran will become a macro. Poke him and he’ll do something.
ruclips.net/video/5gYHeoI2Ihw/видео.html he makes sound when you touch him
He did his part! 9yo army rejoice!
Who
@@riyankhan3289 see the end of the video
Taran: Thank you very much!!!
Linus, please encourage your team for more videos like this. Honestly one of the most useful videos I've seen for the last year! Lots of IT pros and programmers will really appreciate this info.
I love that you think of your editing station as your "cockpit"; godspeed!
did linus purchase a new skin? he looks different...
He looks better!
