How does NKRO over USB work?
The cheaper Chinese keyboards emulate multiple keyboards to do this in many cases. Some other bands use modified protocols. The new better ones just use full speed usb (yes full speed not even high speed) and problem solved. As for what limits a usb keyboard to 6KRO that would be the original low speed protocol. You dont need to make a controller there are already a few devices that do it properly using full speed, though i dont remember them off hand, you can search GeekHack and find them probably fairly easy. But if you just want a controller the teensy will do it fine all you need is the correct firmware and at least 2 different peoples support this feature. The are some restrictions the main one being you have to toggle it on once booted or you wont be able to use your keyboard in your BIOS, though it should work in UEFI.
