    Out of curiosity, what is the practical use of full N-key rollover? I can’t think of many things that require me to press more than maybe five keys at a time.

      Bit of a niche use-case, but I’d like to have it for using my laptop keyboard as a piano keyboard, for basically MIDI input (via VMPK or one of the DAWs with this feature built-in).

      There’s even certain combinations of just 4 keys, which I simply cannot play…

      Used to have these problems when we were children and playing fighting games with my brother with one keyboard or guitar hero clones that need you to press multiple buttons at the same time, that’s the only use case I could think of. I don’t know if there’s any modern software that requires you to mash more than 2 or 3 buttons at the same time
