Project number two I am working on, I have toyed around with the keyboard mappings in Ableton, and it is fairly versatile. I saw a YouTube video of a guy who took one and mapped it right, then popped off the keys he hadnt used and made a pretty ghetto stompbox. I want to do the same thing, but I have two mod ideas-

wireless keyboard. I think it would be a better solution for me, and I would like to explore that. What kind of latency issues do wireless keyboards run into? Would it turn into a mess when I get in proximity with wireless mics or other things?

covering the keyboard with a box and putting real push buttons (or retro arcade style buttons) on the box. Should I just look for buttons that manually would depress the keys, or would it be pretty simple to wire buttons in place of the keys?

Let me know what thoughts you have, and other fun ideas.
