Is there a way to use this board? i need a lot of buttons and knobs

Hi @JuniorGamingTime ,
to use this library on the 16u2 you must first reprogram it with something like https://github.com/NicoHood/HoodLoader2 ; then you can communicate between the 16u2 and the 2560 using the internal serial port.

Or you can use an atmega32u4 with a great i2c i/o expander chip such as the 2317 (or 23s17 if you want his-speed but it takes more wires to connect it): look here
