Keep in mind that 'keytap2' and 'keytap2-gui' are still in development stage and problems can be expected. Will be providing more info on those soon.

Other than that:

1. Use the 'record-full' tool instead of 'record' to capture the recording. This is what 'keytap2' expects.

2. The line saying:

   [+] Detected a total of 0 potential key presses

means that the keypress detection algorithm didn't detect any peaks in the recording. Make sure your mic level is turned to the max and is able to capture the sound from the keys. You can verify this by replaying the recording with:

./play-full record.kbd

If you hear distinct keypresses then you should be fine.
