What keyboard is this??

Imo, it sounds strangely muted when bottoming out. Like if your swithes were badly lubed, with a bunch of grease on the botom

That's pretty thocky

Uhhhh it sounds like a keyboard idk

Thanks for posting this video 👍🏻

Damn, those silent switches sound that loud?

Omg just got my gold pinks in. I dare say they're better than my Neapolitans.

Idk why, but this is so satisfying to watch.

Might need to get me some bluish whites

What’s the difference between the two sample presses without keycaps?

Just tested it out and it sounds pretty cool!

I know this is a pretty barebones software but I think it can maybe benefit with some improvements.

For example, the current Zealios V2 sound sample you have is pretty damn good. However, your Cherry MX Brown sound sample is kinda resonant.

If you get some sound samples like your Zealios V2 one that demonstrates the sound of the pure switches alone, maybe you can include some modifiers.

For example, by putting a slight tone down modifier, you can simulate going from an alu plate to a steel plate (which generally lowers the pitch of the switches).

In my personal opinion, it would be great to have something like this:

1. Get the purest switch sound possible. I think the best way to do this is:

• Get a plastic case 60% custom

• Aluminium plate

• Perfectly tuned stabilizers to get rid of rattle.

• Foam in the board to get rid of the pinging and only pull out the pure switch sound.

2. The default modifiers should be set to a plastic case and an aluminium plate (As your pure sound samples are from this setup and also most commercial mechs come with this setup)

3. Add some modifiers accordingly to simulate different sounds. For example, you can have modifiers named Steel Plate (Lowers the pitch a lot), Brass Plate (Lowers the pitch a little), Aluminium Case (Increases the pitch a bit and makes the sound sharper by decreasing the duration of the sound), etc. This is probably the most difficult process as it will take some time to experiment and get the modifiers sound right.

These are just ideas though. So far, the software seems to have a pretty damn good base to begin with! I am looking forward to seeing how this develops in the future.

This is very much needed! When you get to a stable point and are feeling certain about the effort let me know and I’ll send care packages with tons of switches.

That's really cool, thanks!

Loud. But the sound is pretty nice anyway. Well done👌🏻

One of my favourite GMK sets.

That sounds crisp. I like it.

Same experience. I got the HMX Hades V2, most terrible switch I've come across so far. It has so much ticking it's unbearable.

one question did you had to change the plate to put these stabs? they are a screw ones isn't it? if you had to change the plate how can i find one?

I think o-ring don't good for feeling typping, right ?

Morning! Did some messing about with my 15g choc linear switches and this is what I came up with, give it a listen.

​

The mod itself is pretty easy, install generic o-rings onto the cap (prevents the stem from hitting the bottom of the switch), remove the stabilizer bar (cause rattle and doesn't do much) and then apply strips of tape around the side of the top housing (buffers out switch return). Takes a bit of time but I literally can't hear my keyboard anymore :) This also makes the entire typing experience extremely soft!

​

For the tape I just used regular packing tape applied to the desk, strips were cut out with a razor and straightedge. Clip the wings down before installation :)

Neat! I’m gonna have to try this!

It raises it up a touch and the stem is prevent from contacting the bottom housing. I use lowpro boards so it’s not too bad

could be down to the difference of a switch tester vs a real keyboard, plate and case are going to play a part in how it sounds

every part of the keyboard is a factor in how it’ll sound. plate, stabilizers, keycaps, whether it’s lubed or not. you have to keep all of that in mind if you want it to sound the exact same.

Kailh did a retool solving many problems with the box switches. The switches in the testers are likely from before that
