Looking at the revised v1.2 JoyLabz Makey Makey board, it looks like they are using a PIC chip <a href="http://makeymakey.com/mmv1.2.small.png" rel="nofollow">http://makeymakey.com/mmv1.2.small.png</a> instead of an Atmega32U4 with an Arduino bootloader. The PIC chip is a different microcontroller so you are not able to upload the Arduino code to remap the keys. There is a different method to remap the keys with the revised JoyLabz Makey Makey board. You should look at this link to see if you can remap your board with the PIC chip => <a href="http://www.makeymakey.com/remap/" rel="nofollow">http://www.makeymakey.com/remap/</a>.</p><p>Even though there are different microcontrollers used, the overall functionality is the same for the resistive touch sensing.</p><p><strong>Additional Tech Support Tips/Troubleshooting/Common Issues</strong></p><p>Additional Tech Support Tips/Troubleshooting/Common Issues => <a href="https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/makey-makey-quickstart-guide/discuss#comment-54906249ce395fae088b456b" rel="nofollow">https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/makey-makey-quickstart-guide/discuss#comment-54906249ce395fae088b456b</a></p></p>

It would simplify the ground path, especially for littler kids. Just put the strap on, and go play.</p>
