How to add labels to the Synthstrom Deluge

The Synthstrom Deluge added an ASCII keyboard feature in the 3.0 firmware update in 2019. But the Deluge doesn’t have letters printed on its keypads! So how do you know which key corresponds to which letter?

I solved this problem by attaching these stick-on transparent labels I bought on Amazon. Be sure to get the 5mm size so that they will fit onto the keypad of the Deluge. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000XJAUVC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00

In this short video I show how to clean the Deluge keypad and install the labels. All you need is a paintbrush, or shaving/makeup brush to dust the keypads clean, and a tweezers (or steady hand) to attach the letters on to the Deluge keypad.

And there you go – a quick and cheap way to add letters onto your Deluge keypad to make using the ASCII keyboard much easier!
