Configuring multiple Makey Makeys (i.e. PC keyboards)

Lauren's icon

Hi all,
I have designed a patch that operates with Makey Makey as a trigger. Makey Makey hooks up via USB, and acts in the same way as a PC keyboard. It sends the following key commands when a circuit is complete: WASD, FG, up, down, space.
I would like to attach a second Makey Makey to expand the number of triggers I can have, but it will have the same set of letters (WASD, etc.). How can I tell Max to differentiate between the FIRST Makey Makey and the SECOND Makey Makey because they have the same keys?
Thanks for your help.

Why not remap the keys of your different Makey Makey?
