duckyPad Pro is a 20-key mechanical macropad for power users who demand advanced macro scripting and customisation beyond the shackles of QMK/VIA.

Incorporating 4 years worth of feedback from the original duckyPad, duckyPad Pro combines long-requested upgrades with a no-nonsense design, aiming simply to be the most capable macropad today.

Highlights

duckyPad Pro has all the basics:

• Hot-Swap
• Rotary Encoders (Tactile or Smooth)
• RGB
• USB-C
• 100% Open-source

But also features unlike any other:

• Custom duckyScript engine, NOT QMK/VIA.
• Longer and more complex macros
• 1.5" OLED screen
• Bluetooth
• Expansion Module for external switches / foot pedals
• 64 profiles, 3712 macros total.
• Automatic profile switching based on active window.
• microSD storage
• No proprietary drivers, works out-of-box.
• Hacker friendly with tinkering guide

duckyScript vs QMK/VIA

duckyPad Pro runs duckyScript, originally designed for USB Rubber Ducky.

Compared to QMK/VIA, you get:

• Much Longer Macros

  • Entire Bee Movie in one macro? Sure thing!
  • Over 3700 macros total

• Advanced Interactive Scripting

  • Variables, conditions, loops, functions, etc.
  • Reading Buttons
  • Print to OLED screen
  • Change RGB Color
  • Randomization
  • How about a fully functional Pong game? [code]

• SD Card Storage

  • Fast Configuration / Backup / Deployment
  • No sketchy drivers or apps
  • No recompiling

While QMK/VIA are great for regular keyboards, they are very limited at even the basics of input automations.

duckyScript is a no-brainer for power users with more demanding scripting needs.

How It Works / Showcase

• Create up to 64 profiles, one for each application.

• Assign up to 58 keys per profile (20 onboard + 6 rotary encoder + 32 external)

• Names are shown on OLED screen

• Write a duckyScript for each key

Easy Start

• duckyScript is a simple language for automating inputs

• You basically tell it what key to press!

• Start simple by mapping shortcuts of your favourite app

Browsing

Zoom In: CTRL +

Next Tab: CTRL SHIFT TAB

Up a Notch

• Once familiar, you can write longer multi-line macros to further speed up everyday task.

• Such as filling forms and typing boilerplate text with one keypress.

Or a simple mouse jiggler:

Even Further

• Explore the full potential with advanced interactive scripting
• Read Buttons
• Write to OLED screen
• Change RGB colors
• Conditions and Loops
• Write ultra-specific macros for your exact needs

How about a fully working Pong game?

Hackerman!

• Of course, by automating keystrokes, you can take over an entire computer with the push of a button!

• This is known as BadUSB attack, which was the original purpose of USB Rubber Ducky.

Nothing Like It

• From simple shortcuts to full-blown programs, duckyScript can easily achieve what was impossible on QMK/VIA!

• Each macro can type over 60,000 characters

• Store over 3700 macros in total

• Executed on custom virtual stack machine

Bluetooth

duckyPad Pro also works as a Bluetooth Keyboard & Mouse

• Bluetooth 5.0

• Built-in Antenna for both BT and Wi-Fi

• Provide your own battery

Expansion Modules

duckyPad Pro also supports optional expansion modules for even more customisability.

• Wire up your own switches / buttons / foot pedals

• 8 channels per module

• Daisy-chain up to 32 channels

duckyPad Configurator

Use the open-source configurator to set up your duckyPad Pro.

• Windows | Mac | Linux
• No account / subscription needed
• No data collection / telemetry

Profile Auto-switching
