How do I do that
so, i can drop in the linear 45 v2's then? if so, sweet
you can yeah
cool, thanks! i just hope they feel the same as these v1's
same but better, 45's are already lighter than the default 60's but I'm sure you'll like them
Yours uses the Lekker V1. All HE switches are linear anyways. You can switch to the Lekker V2 or Geon RAW or Gateron Jade / Jade Pro / Max. Or some others but those are the most well known ones. What is the reason you want to change the switches?
mainly cause ive, spilled a drink or two on the keyboard, and even though ive thoroughly cleaned it and relubed the switches, it no longer feels the same anymore, and a couple of the switches are sticking
figure its been at least 3 years maybe, so fuck it why not
time to replace them all 
I would do it anyways! Just asking what is your reason. 🙂 Stock Lekkers V1 werent that good anyways
While you are at it, grease&lube the stabs if you didnt do that yet
I‘d recommend lekker v2 or geon raw he rn

If you run into any complicated issues or your Wooting keyboard is not responding, one of the first things you can give a shot is restoring your keyboard in the Wootility.

There is a key combination basically
I already did that
Hm :/
It literally won’t type but yet it will reset perfectly
All I did was switch out my old switches back to stock
Had no issues
nope ive never done that lol, thanks for the heads up!
Makes a lot more difference then the switches imho. Sound wise.
Also put some tape in the space bar 😉 All very easy mods.
tape? explain :o
Guys does the jade max requires a new long pole stabilizer ?
The space bar is the worst part of the keyboard imho. The stabs in particular and it sounds a bit too hollow. You put some tape in the space bar and it gets better. You can easily find videos for that. You basically just put some tape in it. Sparing the points where the switch and the stabs go in of course and the shine through part. However greasing the stabs is #1 👍
Jade Max should be the same as normal Jades. You can use long pole or you can just push the old stabs in the keycap firmly.
thanks for the advice, im gonna write all this down for later 
I made a short example of the results. Sorry for the bad quality but it is still easy to hear the differences before and after the changes: https://youtu.be/nBWWRZcZidc?si=Oi_afvrQrxTCmZv7
Does anyone have any ideas why I can’t type anything on my keyboard
I might try a different pc
Idek
All rgb is fine and it’s connecting to wootility just fine
What did you do before it broke?
Ok so
I was using some black knight switches
Which over time I didn’t like the sound and had issues with them pressing keys without me touching them
It would fix when I switched to a different switch
So I decided to just switch back to my stock switches
mmmmm thocky
And now I can’t type anything
I’m wondering if a function key is being constantly pressed preventing it or smth
Well that should reset with a reset right :/
Idk
I assume you already tried taking out the usb plug waiting a bit and putting it back in
Trying different pc now
Different cable as well...
Hope nothing got damaged
It shouldnt
Is it normal to get the usual windows sound when plugging it in?
Keys not registering, pressing themselves and so on can happen due to the actuation point and keycap weight. Also if something is bent. And in my case it was simply the 60HE not calibrating for new switches, which I fixed by a hard reset.
But you did that already
Cause it’s still not working
But I had to do an actual hard reset with the key combination etc. Not just via the button in wootility for some reason
Yeah you said so. No idea then
May I ask for a suggestion, I am looking at Tx APs can’t decide betweek clip/screw-ins or plate mount, what should I get? Thank you
You could try taking out all switches and just test it with one... Annoying
I did not change the stabs. I prefer screw ins but it does not really matter from what I read.
TX AP can sometimes cause issues because it is a very tight fit with the 60HE apparently. However some say they fit just fine. Knight V2 seem to be easier
Just a wild guess... Trial&error
Thank you!
Took out all function keys and I still can’t type
Tried a different cable and nothing
For a split second I could type a few keys
Now I can’t again
I turned on tachyon mode and stuff
Wait now I can type again
One sec
Tachyon mode and no rgb for some reason lets me type a little
Then if I put rgb back on it still works wtf
I don’t think it’s a good sign when one region of my keyboard won’t type
Mind you it was perfectly fine before today
Do you have a ryzen cpu?
If so please check for drivers updates make sure it us up to date
The other pc has a ryzen cpu also?
no intel
Just update the drivers and reset the keyboard properly, that will do the trick if nothing physically is damaged
dunno if its just me but my keyboard also has some weird blue stuff on the pcb i noticed the day i got it aswell as a scratch on the case that came with it
kinda dissapointed so far
It won't pass QC if that's the case
see there
that wasnt from me
dunno if its smudged from an x shape or smth
but it literally wont come off
For how long did you have the keyboard
Did you tape mod it
That's probably tape residue
Nah bro I don't care I'm just trying to help here
That might be from the qc process
but its definitely not tape residue
Did you update the drivers
for the keyboard?
For everything
Also pls dont scratch at it, you‘ll damage the coating that helps with water resistance
It fixes a lot
thanks for the heads up
Alao ryzen had some weird issues with usb devices on older drivers
i was just trying to show its basically painted on haha
do you have any ideas what i should do
i literally swapped out the switches and now the keyboard is doing this
the left region of the keyboard doesnt work and its hard to even get a response out of any of the keys unless in tachyon mode without rgb
Make a thread in #1019755933959733258
ok
If one region doesnt work specifically i think that will help a lot in determining how to fix
Or what the issue is
Hey Ren,
Personal experience from bulding 5 or 6 custom keyboards.
I tried several stabs, from screw-ins to plate-mount.
The difference of screw-ins and plate-mounted, other the mount itself, is that "usually" screw-ins are a tight fit because of the screws, where plate-mount, since they clip in, they may not be very "stable" or a tight fit.
If you really tune a plate-mounted, doing the bandage mod or something similar, where you make them really really tight, there's no difference between screw-ins and plate-mounted.
For the TX APs plate mount, i can say that they were very tight ( i had no issues installing them ) to a point where its one of the best stabs that i worked with ( best stabs for me are the ones that require less tune )
I have here also a set of TX AP screw-ins but i decided the plate mounted were good enough. But tbh honest, after you tune different stabs like Durock's, EG Pandas and so on and so on, they will be very very similar to each other. The only variable is what i said, how much tune you need to do and that defines how good they are out of the box.
There's no going wrong with the TX APs, but i did read that some people weren't able to install them, which was not my case.
does anyone have a sound test of their lubed G raws?
sounds nice! how did you lube them (just stem, stem and housing etc.) and are there any other mods to your keyboard?
didnt lube housings or the stem, only the spring
they are good stock tbh, I was just replacing the springs to a diff weight so I lubed them
@calm pulsar did you use keeptape?
My friends, one question:
What are the main selling points for the G RAWs vs Jade's for example? Why is it a "set" idea that RAW switches are the best right now?
and they yet sound this great
what's that?
Hello Everyone, i have a 60he and i have been thinking about upgrading it a bit but im unsure what to get. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Yk8TBAarA8 Please watch this video and let me know your thoughts/opinion on what sounds and looks the best to you. That would help me decide

*keebtape
the help would be greatly apricated
yup you just give some time for lube to set in and they're pretty good for a while
I'm also using pingless geon springs there which apparently don't need lube but I didnt know that and bag lubed them lol
I'm waiting for my G raws to be delivered - I am going to lube three switches (one just the stem, one the housing and stem and one the whole shebang) and compare these three to the stock version
no, not a fan of tape mod on HE keyboards to be honest
no other mods, just dampening foam and PC-plate (I guess)?
me neither, tried it and it did not soun do great
ah okok
I have an aluminum plate here lol
but the sound is softer because the case I use is frog mini, which has an alternative mounting system
so my config is alu plate, poron foam between pcb and plate
and also a foam sheet for the pcb, that came with one of my kbdfans' plates, not sure of the material
which case you have rn?
yeah I think they're very nice, the sound is quite clean and that's on a metal plate which are usually louder
but the thing is, I immediately spring swapped to these springs when I received the switches, so I think lubed stock springs are just as good
I've been meaning to compare stock spring and the pingless spring but got lazy 😄
oh you said compare, did you post a sound test earlier?
nah i didnt
i also using poron foam for case and plate
so mine is almost similiar to yours
Mostly that they both have very very similar sound with very slight pitch difference but the raw he are tighter stem for less wobble and also cheaper at the same time
ok ok 🙂 thanks ... i thought those were the key selling points but just wanted to be sure
You kind of lose nothing and just gain better stem tightness and more money in your pocket with raw he
i was looking at TTC KoM or Uranus switches, because they are box design and a preference from mine since years when i first started building my keyboards ... but i will have a look at the RAWs too just in case 😄
Just because i wanted to try something different from Jades
the carbon fibre is the most clacky one, pc is like thock/clack mode. i would prefer the PC
ttc kom seem fine, just really not a fan of their sound
very high plasticky, but at least their stems are tight
wasn't a fan of their sound either
also the price is crazy
and they are expensive AF! 😄
but this time around i need to get something with stronger spring ... HE and light switches is a nightmare for me 😄
tooo reactive 😄
as in ... its good to be super reactive but ... it's way too muchio 😄 heavy fingers 😄
I agree, HE already actuates quite fast so having a stronger spring allows to have a bit more control over movement and rapid trigger, at least for me
yeah ... maybe i'll try the 60g RAWs
The Seal Keyboard is a premium 100% full-size kit designed with a robust top-mount structure, ensuring a firm and precise typing experience. The aluminum case is available in multiple anodized finishes, and users can choose between brass, copper, or stainless steel weights for added stability and customization. With its high-quality construction...
Whoa
That’s pretty ultimate
If I cared about MX 
Least effort to actuate > control IMO
looks nice on renders
the little cherry badge is very nice
yeah but what is the difference in effort to move the switch 0.1mms
Times by 40 cuz you never only move it .1mm lol
then it's not about effort to actuate, but the preference in the feel that you get
thanks, I have the Tofu60 redux, with a PC plate with poron foam between the PCB and Switch plate and PCB and case
ordered some silicon stand of covers from KBDfans, waiting for them to arrive
try friction mounting some time, it's better than just tray mounting imo
sorry for asking but for the gateron jades on a wooting 60he should i buy the tx ap long pole 1.2mm or the 1.6mm? thank you
theres some new tactiles otw :)
thank you for answeringg
oh btw where they will be sold?

I know of AEboards/Keyboard Treehouse
idk their chinese rep
and I'll be stocking some as well
Hmm for me HE and Tactile sounds counter intuitive. But hey, we will See I guess
okay I will be looking out for those cause I'm curious for some tactiles, (not clicky tho)
it is
its also very tactile
yeah that was my initial thought about clicky HE, but softer tactiles might be cool for a change
Haptic feedback for something that you can variable set 
Well full press whatever
Fingers not getting sore/tired> fingers getting sore
it is a fair concern, but tbh even when I was on 70g springs I never had my fingers getting tired
maybe on 100g but at this point I don't want to go past 62.5g cause these are my current geon pingless springs
Actuate in the MX sense I guess but yeah
Yeah I wish mechanical keyboards.com had the pingless
Curious to try them
yeah I bet they are super good on POM or PC plates
cause they sound very clean even on my alu plate
hey guys would like some suggestions for which stabilizers to change to for my wooting 60he+ module. Gonna be using jade pro switches
raws are better than jade pro
also tx ap
why are they better if you dont mind explaining
better tolerances, cheaper
also which ones because theres long pole and normal with different lengths
Don't go tx ap. They sometimes have fitting issues
go knight v2 if you really want to swap stabs, but honestly not always needed
ahh alright ill try the stock ones out first thanks guys
Is this stuff genuine from ali?
if from aliexpress and a non reputable vendor then usually no
if it's a proper known keyboard shop that happens to have an aliexpress shop it can be genuine though
Good morning, everyone. I'm hoping someone can help me figure something out. I'm talking with Wooting support, and I'm having a hard time understanding what they're asking me to do to troubleshoot a hardware problem with my 60he. Is it possible to install the switches without the top plate?
yes, they will be a bit wobbly though
My spacebar's switch mounting point on my top plate is a little too large, and I contacted them for a replacement so the switch fits tight. Wooting sent me this.
"I'd like to examine if this is caused by the tolerance on PCB and the PC plate.
Could you try installing your v2s on the spacebar (without the switch plate)?"
just insert it into the switch slot on the pcb without using the plate
So they're asking me to disassemble the PCB from the keyboard, and install the switch to the PCB directly?
pretty much yeah, you will need to take out the pcb and remove the screws that hold the plate to the pcb
Do I have to remove all the switches from the plate first?
it is not required, they can just come off the pcb while attached to the plate
Thank you so much! I believe TX AP plate mount will work on my kbdfans cf plate
Thank you for explaining this. I was really confused, and support is super slow. It's taken a whole week to hear back from them.
Hope that’s true for you
btw is there even a middle pickup on your profile pic? 😄
Does anyone know it the switch opener fits the geon raw?
it does
That style is not the most comfortable to use but it works
Thank you for your contribution to the Church of Geon
Your welcome bro hahaha
That’s an opener
I have that style. It only opens Raws half way. Dashs all the way
Do you know a style that opens them fully
I personally do not. Someone here will
I don't mind some hand work but I want it to be simple
I thought raws open this way cause they have a light diffuser?
didnt know there is a switch opener that can open them fully
maybe the fancy gateron one does, but it's on the expensive side for an opener
Do you happen to have the link for it
That I’m not sure. That one would open mine halfway and then I’d have to use a thumbtack to open them the rest of the way
Praise geon and their switch opener
https://www.gateron.co/collections/accessories/products/gateron-switch-opener?variant=40052990935129
No. It's a joke. People call the middle position of two pickup guitars the "middle pickup" all the time.
can be found on aliexpress too
So it’s an actual wrench lmfao wtf
I have that at my home
ahh I see lol
well it's just fancy in the way that you press it down and when you loosen it you have an opened switch, but not sure if it would work like that with raws
waiting for my cult branded opener lol
Mine arrives tomorrow 
To no switches unfortunately
https://deskr.co/products/gateron-switch-opener . Don't sleep on these. Easily one of the best keyboard related tools I've purchased.
Haha, used it to make the monochromes.
does it open raws completely? cause a normal alu opener doesnt for me
Yes it will open it all the way.
ic ic, might grab it some day when I want to relube my raws
Your fingers will thank you later.
what, do I need a new switch opener to open the raws?!
good 😄
you might need to pry them open yourself a bit more, that's all
tyty, tired of buying all these small things 
Imagine 
flat head screw driver user be like
This thing sucks
$30 for a switch opener aww hell nah 
Why?
#screwdrivers on top
Price, sure. You can get it for like half though
Free.99
I coil wind all of my springs myself

Need to find more non switch opener uses

Hi if I open the board and do the foam and tape mod by opening the board hope it doesn't voids warrenty
Coz mouses if opened voids warrenty
When you lube 170 switches in one session... You will hate yourself for not having one 
For Wooting it doesnt. Taping is fine. Obviously if you do something wrong and it breaks... you are still responsible
Bruh I never done a mod other than putting foam in my 30 bucks reddragon keyboard
actually I think the 60he is easier to open up and put back together than your reddragon
Wooting has some guides on their YT for doing the tape mod which seems very straight forward
i still dont know what to do my wooting 60he is so cooked rn, ive made a support thing and emailed wooting but i really cant be bothered waiting, i think its software cause i can press abckspace and right fn to put it into restore mode then nothing works on my keyboard, i can change rgb and it connects to wootility fine but i cant type anything
And putting it together too which is very handy for new modders
for some weird reason if i put it into tachyon mode and turn off the rgb some keys on the keyboard work
but the leftmost region doesnt
any help pleeeeease
not the right channel for this but have you tried changing to a different profile? maybe you have some gamepad bindings enabled
i dont think that fixes it
doesn't hurt to try
nope nothing
might as well disable the gamepad functionality from wootility -> settings while you're at it
Back to this. https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/products/durock-v3-stabilizer-plate-mount-clip-in-tkl-kit?variant=49816994513196
Are those good?
POM housing POK stem Elastic support base to minimize wobble and noise Upgraded angled snap / buckle for plate mounting to make it more compatible with plates as thin as 1.2mm MX compatible Choose your wire color and spacebar size Each set includes: 4* 2u stabilizers and a spacebar stabilizer of the size chosen
you need 6.25u for wooting
just mentioning cause your link has 7u selected
Thx
I have opened up thousands of switches
#geonwillsaveus
Clicky? Does it rattle or just not deep enough?
Grease/lube stabs for rattle.
Tape or foam otherwise.
?
clicky has got to be the worse descriptor you could have used unless ur talking about something with a literal clicking mechanism
are you using a clicky?
probably meant stabs ticking
probably
but it could also mean a dozen different things that would have been better described than “clicky”
stabs with a click leaf in each housing
durocks were good a long time ago
I'm on it
Durocks are still good ... they still suffer from the same issues though 😄
Window sealer putty
Brand new HOLY_FRIJOLES! spacebar mod.
i think i almost prefer the unmodded version
Absolute madlad 
Idk bro, just saw someone on reddit with those. Im fine with my swagkeys knight v2, but my friend has 60he-. Soooo he cant install them. And i dont know any good playe mount switches
But have to find something
Idk why but on first glance I read “window licker party”
lol
Yo any kind soul able to help out a first timer with a few questions regarding keycaps?
I figured I wanted to go all out with the 80HE so I got the raw case with it and currently looking for keycaps. As I understand it the go to is to get a GMK set? & I found these GMK Sumi's that I really really like but I am having difficulty understanding all the layouts
All the images of them use this layout which has a few things wrong compared to my keyboard currently (Nordic layout) Is this just something you ignore or do you swap some keycaps around or do I need to find another set?
Am i cooking chat #🕒│waiting_room message
probably wont work for you if you care about the keycaps matching your layout tbh
I'm not to worried about being able to see the legends, but more that the keycaps will actually fit. Like I have a keycap between shift and z which is missing in the set. Could I just put another keycap there instead? Or does that mess with the angle of the keycaps with the curve
& thank you for the reply!
The normal keys need to be 1.25u
are you recording with your phone on the table?
yes, my phone was on a tissue packet to try to prevent the vibration from going on the mic
I don't have a third hand sorry
ah lmao its okay
i used my quadcast as a phone stand for a top-down view and it has a shock absorber
After a week on jades max, I think they are not worth buying
This is not a bad product, only a bad price
this is an interesting 100% layout
pretty big forehead
(just released on divinkey's shop)
Idk why but this reminds me of lucky charms and I can’t unsee it

smashing escape too hard and your keycap starts leaking, crazy shit
I have a question, im new to modding keyboards and i want the gmk botanical 2 keycaps but i dont know where to buy them in the us, can someone help me and tell me in what site can i buy the keycaps?
Are you looking for the base set or the novelties included
Im new to modding keyboards so i dont know the diference what is it?
They’re basically extra keys that have fun graphics on them
"Your keyboard's natural companion! GMK Botanical, as the name suggests, is inspired by nature’s most beautiful jungles and gardens. This keycap set is designed to organically integrate within your workspace allowing you to not only focus on what needs to be done, but also bring some of the outside in!" - Hazzy
This it?
If you scroll thru the pictures it shows you different renders with each different key caps you can get with it
Cool, where can i find them with the novelties
You can go hunting across the web for them (not guaranteed to find them). My recommendation would be to check out the r/mechmarket subreddit and see if you can find someone with a full unopened set
Try going thru a couple of these sites first to see if you can find what you’re looking for then if not, I’d check out the subreddit
You’re looking for the GMK section should hopefully have it
I will go with the base set, i want them asap
Can i get diferrent colors?
It shows you what’s available on omnikeys so hopefully it has all you want 🙂
Ok, thanks.
If there’s anything missing you want, I’d check out mechmarket and see if you can score a full bundle
But I think omnikey should have all 4 in stock (base kit, different color alternates, novelties and space bars)
What color do you think it would fit the withe zync alloy 80he the most, standard or desert?
I’m kinda partial to the desert, but if you want a true white experience then standard
The desert will just be a little off color
Good side by side
desert is clean af
I think wooting has a video on their YT, you basically wanna unscrew the assembly from the case, take the plate/pcb apart by removing the standoff screws, then take your switches out, put them in the new plate, and then follow the steps in reverse
im getting mine on thursday
i can show you the steps when im doing it
ah well okay then
you can start by taking the module out of the case, flip it over and there should be a couple of screws on the back of the pcb
you can unscrew them and it simply just comes apart
swap over your switches and screw it back together
if you have the foam/silicone, it should show you where the standoffs go
if you have one of the wooting plates (pc or steel) the standoffs don't come off like they do on kbdfans and other plates
so you should just have to unscrew the module, flip it over, and there's 8 screws on the back that are easy to see, they have a small circle around them iirc
i think he has the cf plate
he should've had to screw in the standoffs then
so idk how you wouldn't know where they are
either way they're in the same spots, you just wanna take the screw out from the pcb side and the standoff should stay screwed into the plate
if you're swapping to the CF plate now you can take the assembly out
remove the screws from the stock plate
and install the standoffs on the kbdfans in the same spots, and use the foam like @robust siren said to make sure it'll fit
the standoffs on the stock plates don't come off so take that plate off, remove the switches, and line it up with the cf plate and install the standoffs in those spots
keycaps arrived yay
woohoo 🥳
There are tapered screws and flat screws. Tapered screws go into the tapered holes.
GMK delivery day is second to keyboard delivery day
, caps look great
these look great
--->
------>where'd you get them from?
You got the link for these?
They look like Kanji GMKs, I don’t have the name on hand, but you should find some nice caps with this https://www.alexotos.com/keyboard-vendor-list/
The key cap rabbit hole is a long, but fun journey
Aliexpress the quality is okay since they’re cheap but better than many other cheap ones hold on lemme find it
it’s most likely fake but a really good fake
oh yeah
Optimal
Do u mind sending a pic of the underside of the keycaps* @safe owl
not even really a fake, its its own thing and thats cool
some fakes that really go heavy with cloning would be aifei/gj in terms of colorway
okay hold on
the picture on the aliexpress website doesnt have black spacebar keycap for some reason but when i got mine it did have one
💎🙌 I'm holding on
I just sent it the message before 👍
Thanks, appreciate it, cheers!"
np
oh thanks
these are dyesub
do you mind sending the bottom of a black key?
space/enter/another black key
If its not a bother
i wanna see if theyre rev dyesub on those ones
so ig its a mix of dyesub, rev, and pad print for this set

okie
move the pcb lower
enter and spacebar keycap
oh does that mean it’s not pbt
not sure about the keycap terminology sorry
its pbt
just the the legends are done by dyesubbing all 5 sides but the legend for the black keys
making a negative of it
oh I see
all my parts have arrived except the pcb 😭
does this mean that its gonna arrive tmr or does it mean that theyre gonna start delivering it tmr
arrive tomorrow
and start delivery
yay
Do Lekker V2s and Gateron Jades from Wooting Store come pre-lubed? Is there a reason to lube them yourself?
they are lubed from factory
but its always better to hand lube if you do it correctly
Do you remove the factory lube before hand lubing them yourself?
just put a thin application over the factory lube
if you put "too" much over the factory lube then you will end up overlubing the switch
im too lazy (and geon raws are great from factory) to lube switches
is factory lubed machine lubed or people do it
machine
ah makes sense
imagine people hand lubing every switch 💀
who would even want to like lube a batch of 70 every 3-6 hours 💀 (me)
then the switches would be $1 per switch... ahem
arent those better if you do it yourself anyways
I was more joking about jade maxes
but I think these days just lubing springs is enough
just saying if they did it by hand prices would go up
yup
tho there are geon pingless springs lol
i also don’t have a switch opener so whatever lol

It’s time to try out the GMKs, my impatience knows no bounds 🔥

i want to install my sw knights rn but i really want to do the plate swap at the same time
and i dont wanna take apart my keyboard 2 times
Take what is left of my patience 🙏🏻
Low key these wire cap pullers are kinda ass maybe I just have a bad set

what the😭
uh...
These stabs are kinda pissing me off but maybe that enter key will just have to stay 🥲
These stabs are cooked
cant tell from the picture, are they mx style stabs?
or whatever theyre called
Instock set :0
just wait it out
They should be, using the Azoth currently
i know
get some pliers or something idk
The right side stabs are super cooked
blud shouldve waited 
I haven't seen that happen in so long I feel like lmao
I did it!
I didn’t realize the stabs could come out of their little housing so it looks like I didn’t break anything
a lot of cheap stabs are like that
had those kinds of stabs on my $30 red dragon keeb
I don’t feel bad about breaking this one, but if my Wooting did then I’d cry for a few days
@fluid ravine
lol why no 7u spacebar then
just fucking around in paint lol
needs stepped caps lock
yeah I noticed windows key covers were weird lol
lol yeah haha
trying to make it perfect
close enough
needs stepped caps lock and it's perfect.
random question but what is the purpose of the stepped caps lock key?
i think he answered before, it was to prevent accidential actuation and aesthetics (?)
aesthetic
you guys still have caps key bound?! that prime PTT keybind placement
bought my geons, aliexpress ran a coupon and kbdfans restocked after i asked if they had more
what's the coupon code good sir!?!?
its country specific i think, but its on the aliexpress homepage. it wasnt a lot but we take what we can get 😔
CDNL03, but it will prob be different when you check on the site
Will try, thank you very much!!
First attempt, might do the opposite coloring for November, not enough blue pieces to perfect the original idea hmm
What the fwick
you can use honey and just brute force it
This isn't a wooting
Any jade pros users in here?
Was wondering whether i need to relube those switches
Hhkb lol
Subjective question, spacebar foam, what is yall's opinion on this, also, if you like it, what thickness, 3.5mm, 6.5mm or 9.5mm? TIA
I will use Wooting's Doubleshot PBT ones, forgot to add that info
i use foam to reduce how hollow it sounds
i just cut up some extra foam when i was case swapping and stuck it in my spacebar
This is very good information, thank you!
Also, anyone here uses ~ and ` on a daily basis or frequently? how did you work around that with wooting 60? I'm thinking about adding binds like Shift + Esc + a to make ã and Alt + Esc + a to make à, I've never used layers so I'm not sure if I would get used to it or just add these binds
For clarification, I will be using ANSI layout as the ISO ones have letters I do not use in my alphabet so it makes it less confusing
Been using 60g switches and I get some strain after gaming for a few hours. Should I go down to 50g or all the way down to 40g?
for ~ and ` i just do the default FN+Shift+Esc or just FN+Esc, it does get annoying sometimes but i rarely use them
this is for ansi ^
i switched from L60's to Geon Raw HE (40 grams) and i feel like i can definately play for longer without as much strain
I was initially going to drop to 40g but I am worried it might be too light
Would it be weird if I had some keys 40 and some 50?
depends
i think 50s would work for things like the spacebar
but for the alpha keys 40 is good
Maybe I should just get a set of 60 50g and then an extra 15 40g or something and just use the 40s on the keys i use a lot for games like wasd
Not sure if that would feel weird
i mean that could work
After multiple weeks my boom arm is finally here
HOLY SHI FINALLY
where u gonna set it up :D
multiple weeks??
yeaH
is it from like a special brand or smth
how does it work
theres like a triple jointed system kinda thing
it's a bit short than how some would need it but it should be fine on her desk
what do those monitor lights actually do
not my image
ah
cause like idk ive seen a lot of people use it but it just looks like unnecessary glare
but usually you would use the monitor light bar to like lighten up your like desk
or workstation
quick google search proved me wrong
💀
i mean if you wanna like lighten up the monitor so you dont get eye strains or wtv, ig you could put light behind the monitor
@jade storm
can you show him an example, ik you have a image of yours
excuse me what
Is that an elgato mic ?
What mic u using
Raw HE ship for like $27 for me on their website but only like $4 on aliexpress, I've never used aliexpress before is that a good place to buy them?
as long as its the kbdfans offical store
The mic in the image is a fifine AM8
POchizo uses a HyperX Quadcast
I use a Fifine k688
Wanting to sell mine so i can get a White Rode PodMic
beautiful ngl
wall paper?
man I would do the same thing if I had a wall lol
i saw that they released a new quadcast
yeah i saw as well but im not interested personally
I personally dont find it great imo either ways
ty :)
oh yeah and the app got no tuning for it
or well i havent figure out how to
idk 3rd party app and like some adjustment dials on the mic itself
it just doesnt exist
since its a cardioid mic
you need to have it connected for the app to recognize it
it is connected
only thing you can change in the app is the rgb settings iirc
you have the mic?
i dont have the quadcast s
like the quadcast in general
yeah
dms
the normal one is just red
mic i want right here 
THE DIFFERENCE IS RGB
😭
im gonna stick with my budget mic with my audio interface
i got it at a pretty good deal so whatever
it was in a combo with headphones for 150
Audient Evo 4 is my audio interface if you're wondering
I heard good things about the Steel series mics
that's not bad
Pod mic?
yeah
Yeah it’s nice
i returned the headphones and got all the money back 
even tho the eq is like flat i still fw it
damnnnnnn
bought it from costco 🙏
they do literally anything returns
the headphones were literally disintegrating
oh shi i didnt know costco sell shit like that
it was a couple of years ago tho
but yeah they do sell some gaming items iirc
they had some razer keyboard too
dont got that here in Houston TX
they do sell PCs and monitors
yeah we got those
holy shit they have a whole setup
Does anyone have a full set of white crazed keycaps by cerakey that they are willing to sell? 🙂
they even sell this
i didnt know costco was chill like this
guess itd make sense for them to have this, its only right as the main competitor
for the budget at least
hyper x quadcast, good enough for now
so many things i wanna like change or upgrade rn
lmao
im wanting a saturn pro mousepad all of the sudden
me too
though i just spent a bunch on this wooting and some pc parts
kinda want to try an artisan mousepad and beastx/vv3p
want an artisan but wont dare to spend that much
artisans are like $50 from what im seeing
😈
"The reason is that the fabric on the top of the mousepad is laminated to the base material with adhesives in a heating process."
most of the time youre washing with cold/cool water

Freebird plugin spot isn't big enough for the wooting cable and it doesn't connect properly 🙂
Omg the foam that the mic arm came in with is perfect size for keyboard foam LOL
Would have to cut in half thi
Cause iz thicc
pffft
Cover it in suede and you’re all set
Shure is where it’s at
I only like shure because it's minimal
i mean yeah looks and sound are amazing
but dont like how you gotta use DB boosters or what not
Hmm
mv7/+ cool doe
fine >:((
best site for keycaps?
Any vendors in your local area
omnitype goated for NA
think my area is pretty small
to be fair
switch and plate tightness is loose then
Any xlr microphone needs to be amplified to sound good
tape 😎
see if it clips like tightly
if not then yeah use thin tape and apply it around the switch hole
hmmm
i think you should make it come out from the side iy know what i mean
if thats possible
umm
deskmat kinda big
LOL
wait ima dm you
well it's suppose to make the switch fit tighter into the plate
its like applying bandaid onto the plate for the plate moutn stabilizer clips
ehhhhhhh
no not really
mk
Gateron launchjng yet another switch it seems lol
What improvement does it has?
Jade gaming, it has box stem but it sounds weird and plasticky like ttc magneto
Hmm, so a box stem variant then
these worth it?
Like on the plate
Or smth
Idk ive seen someone doing it a year back with their stock plate so I don't remember exactly
O nice
Thanks
if u wanna be a weeb and willing to drop $120 on a wob set go for it
idk its hard to explain 😭
i ended up with more questions than answers
real
@fluid ravineim probs gonna get a mv6
Cuz im running a ATH 2020USB X mic
Its a good mic as well
mv6 as in the shure mic?
Yes
why not get a podmic?
or if u want to save a bit of money, get something like the k688 or am8
The podmic id need a USB C anyway im too lazy to run a XLR
ah
Fifne doesnt sell here
are you tryint to find it in person
cuz ik they're on amazon
and I'm pretty sure they're based in sg
does singapore not have aliexpress or smth
Ive checked every seller
ik they do
It does
order through ali then
Yea ig
Cuz the Fifne brand LEGIT
doesnt sell
Esp in official retailers
and its fucking weird
Ima se
e
It sells on amazon thats a good thing
But either way ima think about it
I saw podmics in best buy and micro center and im like wanting it so bad for some random reason
but won't want to get it cus i want it in white
they only sell black in stores
sadly
idk why you would say "they don't ship here" before checking
kinda dumb tbh
if it comes out of china
they'll ship 99% of places
Na my brain kinda short circuted
unless sanctions
what are the options again
mv6
and what else
Fifne a rode podmic
k688 as to what it was stated
It happens XD
I have the K688 rn
K688 if u have a stand already
so does bigsly
AM8 if u dont
Is it any good?
I got a k668 too
both use the same diaphragm
it's pretty decent imo
oh ye
very very good for the price
Thats good
I've got a K688 as well
i like it for the price
but sometimes the desire of wanting something better just hits me 
AM8 if u dont alr have a stand, K688 if u do. They're both pretty warm sounding dyanamic mics
I'd say AM8 sounds a bit more lively
I bought a podmic for 90 aud
not true tho
its just about distance from the mic
its a quirk of dynamic
sounds are more "full" when you're closer to it
brand new or used
oh damn that's a really good price then
yea
lol, doing it for aesthetics wise
i still dont have a mic
o xd
lol
can i get something good for 50ish dollars
the research got me going crazy
yea
Amazon do pretty good sales on fifine mics i'd say
choose the one that comes with a switch opener
i can catch like a AM8 for like less than $50 iirc
LMAOOO
too bad i didnt get one with mine
Good job
I MEANT TO CHECK SHIPPING AND PRICE OR WTV AND I HIT PLACE ORDER ON AMAZON
I MEANT TO ADD TO CART 😭
blud
