# tropic urchin "but is it thocky mr cam?"

well, apparently there are some preinstalled foam rings on them? I may or may not remove them and see how they sound and/or if they still work properly without the foam rings

what do you plan to do with them tho

and throw in a jade spring

well actually didnt really think of frankening, just want to compare PC housings vs POM housings sound

I feel like most of the stability would come in thru that giant red stem

you see the foam ring?

#

around the stem

#

I might try removing those

and see how they sound

tropic urchin
#

the one thing I dislike most about the raeds outside from its flimsy sound profile is that it literally looks like someone was obsessed with low profile switches and tried to make their own

#

it just looks so weird 😭

#

preinstalled foam ring is just cherry on top

crimson sky
calm pulsar
harsh dove
crimson sky
#

means that they prob will become somewhat loose towards the top end

sacred elm
#

They are probably good silent switch recommendation, but i dont think theyre optimal choice for performance

harsh dove
#

Yeah basically just gonna be good for peeps who want quiet

crimson sky
harsh dove
#

for office or whatever

crimson sky
#

and topre was not designed to be especially lowpro but to fit into new regulations, just like cherry MX was

harsh dove
#

yeah its basically topre HE switch

#

follows a lot of the same designs

I think its simply cause they are bigger, so more resonance in them

harsh dove
#

yeah that could be too

tawdry tree
kind helm
#

also maybe bandaid the pcb beneath the stab housing

#

not sure if he did that already though :3

tawdry tree
#

if he’s using long poles on the phoenixes, it’s the stabs for sure

harsh dove
#

for the record I think they sound good still, just weren't as silent as the alphas

tawdry tree
#

eh, phoenixes are quiet but that’s about it imo. they aren’t always silent, even the bottom out, like you have to hit them pretty softly for them to stay normally quiet which isn’t the case for the mx silents I tried.

#

they can definitely be improved

Ah okay interesting

wish u could change cf weight

kind helm
#

I think it is a concern at least

#

sounding hollow

fluid ravine
#

Another thing to point out is that ping mostly comes from metal to metal contact, even pcb to case contact, gummy mount allows the pcb to NOT touch the pcb as the mount sits on the oring so it isolate the pcb sound shi away from the case

kind helm
#

because it do be light af at .63kg

fluid ravine

I think the mount and a good switch+plate combination will do more than just adding more weight

I'm unsure what switches to buy for my wooting 80he

#

Any recommendations?

kind helm
#

raw he is good quality at a decent price.

#

jade pro is slightly better than raw in terms of performance (unnoticeable), but mainly it is just a bit more snappy and sound different, slightly more expensive than raw
ttc pom is the best for performance (again, unnoticeable), it has minimal wobble but hand lubing is needed to be smooth and insanely expensive.

If you want to get them, wait for wooting. They are adding them in store next thursday

Potentially with better price

grave matrix

I've got time to wait, so I might wait

sacred elm
grave matrix
#

Is it releasing with international shipping availability?

sacred elm
#

Yea

grave matrix
#

Pre lubed?

glacial wind
#

that we do not know

#

they did not mention any changes to the lubing though

kind helm
#

was doing something else

sacred elm
#

Current ttc poms have the worst factory lube but we dont know if this wootings version will have any changes to that

grave matrix
#

😨

glacial wind
#

it just depends on if anything changed vs normal pom because technically ttc does do some 'factory lube' but their version of factory lube is the 3 dots inside housing and nothing on stem

grave matrix
#

I hope it's pre lubed, cause I don't wanna go through the process of doing it myself, because that's extra costs

sacred elm
#

Yea, Im also ordering them next thursday and bought lube too

0.0 where else they putting it on the inside housing then?

sacred elm

I think theyre completely dry, and there are only 3 small drops of lube on bottom housing

glacial wind

Completely dry stem and top housing

#

And this is the 3 drops of lube they use in bottom

kind helm

#

Incredible factory lubing

sacred elm

Fixed with lekker poms ✅

#

jk

glacial wind
#

You see the 3 small dots at the bottom where the spring hits

cyan lark
glacial wind
#

That’s basically it for lube lol

#

Seems to be how they factory lube all their magneto switches

sacred elm
#

ill let you guys know hows the lube on wootings pom, doubt anything gonna change tho

grave matrix
#

Ye, pls do

kind helm
#

these 3?

grave matrix
#

I'll get the wooting poms if the factory lubing is better

glacial wind
#

that's it lol

#

so there's nothing on any rails or stem etc. it only potential helps spring ping a tad

glacial wind
#

yeah i didn't trust that lube either and just bag lubed my springs

sacred elm
#

sno did you lube only stems + springs?

glacial wind
#

i did stems then bag lube springs and i brushed the lube in bottom housing around the bottom housing better

sacred elm
#

oh ok

kind helm
#

yeee i never seem any one lube there, its mainly around the bottom housing(rails), stem, and the spring

sacred elm
#

probably gonna lube side walls of the stem, springs and spread the lube arround bottom housing

kind helm
#

blobhyperthinkfast makes me wonder why they did it like that

glacial wind
#

honestly the spread lube around bottom housing was most just for me and i don't think it does much if you've already lubed the stems lol

#

i just didn't like the worthless 3 dots of lube there

sacred elm
#

did you lube all 4 sides of the stem? or only sidewalls

glacial wind
#

i did all 4

sacred elm
#

alright

kind helm
sacred elm
#

I dont have stem holder so thats big L for me

buy one off aliexpress lol, they're like $2

kind helm
#

tape modding is supposed to make the sound reflect more with the sound bubbles but i guess that depends on the layers you do

sacred elm

just the color difference

i don't know if i'd necessarily do tape mod with ttc poms

grave matrix
#

how come?

glacial wind
#

it might have the opposite effect lol

grave matrix

ruhroh

#

has anyone tested it yet?

kind helm
sacred elm
#

80he comes with preinstalled pet film, it acts as a tape mod

glacial wind
#

you can always put on a couple layers and see and if you don't like it take it off, but generally i think it's going to make your sound more distinct and not more muted

kind helm
grave matrix
#

originally I was gonna go with the sticky rice everglide

kind helm
grave matrix
#

but stability does sound good with poms

glacial wind
#

sticky rice are pretty mediocre switches that are not as stable as most of the usual recommended options

grave matrix
#

thought so

glacial wind
#

i think they only got popular because a couple youtubers said the word 'thocky' for them and it became the default search result for 'thocky he switch'

#

but they're not really all that thocky either so yeah

grave matrix
#

from what I've heard so far

kind helm
#

relatively thocky than other switches

#

hehehe

grave matrix
#

it sounds like thocky is hard to achieve with HE switches

glacial wind
#

yeah it doesn't really exist with HE right now

#

it's all varying levels of bright clacky switches

sacred elm
#

thonky

kind helm
glacial wind
#

closest is actually something like just the stock lekkers which would be 'muted' but not really 'thocky' if going by what the youtubers use as the terms

kind helm
#

plate, foams, and case can do a lot

glacial wind
#

a lot of 'thock' recordings can also be phone recordings too, which i noticed happens when you place any phone really close to your keyboard and sitting on the desk

#

it seems to really hone in on the thock side of sounds and start making every switch sound 'thocky' if recorded in that way

#

i noticed i had some 'thockier' results of ttc pom when i first started trying to record quickie samples on phone, but it sounded more correct once i took the phone off the desk and recorded slightly further away from the keyboard

SwitchyLaser what we need is more reviews on raed, the future of HE thockology.

I find that my phone recordings come closest to actually matching what it sounds like to be in the room typing.
Not gonna dare to make any comments on thock, though.

cyan lark
#

Same reason I type using actual sentences instead of random lowercase words strung together. Nobody actually types like that, why represent it that way?

calm pulsar
#

well a mic recording is usually quite isolated from outside noises which can still help people compare switches or plates for example

#

so it can still be helpful

cyan lark
#

For sure I'm not saying it's worthless, but it can be pretty misleading

calm pulsar
#

but I agree that phone recording can be closer to what you hear irl

cyan lark
#

Especially if it's an isolated sample

kind helm
cyan lark
#

At least you get more keys involved, especially stabilized ones.

glacial wind
#

i don't know why but distance to the keyboard really seems to mess with my recordings on phone

kind helm
glacial wind
#

i'll have one recording sitting right next to the keyboard on a tripod and it'll sound like my switches are thocky, then same phone but just holding it slightly further and above keyboard and it will sound more 'correct' to what it actually sounds like

cyan lark
#

The proximity effect in audio is an increase in bass or low frequency response when a sound source is close to a directional or cardioid microphone. Proximity effect is a change in the frequency response of a directional pattern microphone that results in an emphasis on lower frequencies. It is caused by the use of ports to create directional p...

glacial wind
#

yeah probably something to do with this

cyan lark
#

I dunno the exact science either but yeah, distance has a big impact. The one thing I would like to do is at least isolate from the desk, which is not great.

grave matrix
kind helm
#

i gonna start typing more quotes honestly, its like random inspiring phrases dogekek

cyan lark
#

Yeah I'm not claiming this is exactly it, but proximity does seem to affect the tone of sounds. Could be any number of reasons, not the least of which is the phone doing some processing on it 🤷

grave matrix
#

It could be, I have no idea what microphone his phone carries

cyan lark
grave matrix
#

Proximity effect is a very distinct sound, so it's easy to tell from a recording

not sure why would you get these instead of jade pros, and then if you want stability you get ttc poms, which is cheaper than those jade rubies, while having almost no wobble

If it was 8x in the other direction I would be on board
