MeisterConverter - Multi-purpose USB converter

This board runs HID Remapper by default with GP2040-CE as an option, which provide lots of flexability. MeisterConverter is a programmable adapter for use with a wide range of applications. Some example use cases include:

• Using a keyboard as a leverless controller, even on a Playstation 5 (requires optional authentication dongle).
• Using MIDI controllers as input devices.

Alpenmeister over in Germany designed this fully embedded design with the goal to keep it as compact and affordable as possible!
