Reply to comment by Nyohn in I tried some silent switches recently and I was quite surprised by which one was the quietest by Paraless

Definitely better than the silicon dampeners, but also definitely not like a normal switch either.

The stems also have little leaf spring type bits that dampen the bottom out (might be on the top out too). That’s the part that makes them feel slightly mushy.

I got the Heartbeats to try out, but I couldn’t get over the feel. Silent switches just aren’t for me.

Reply to comment by Daell in Keychron Q12 has a layer of tape pre-installed. Very convenient by phero1190

This type of “tape mod” from the factory with that really thick material is not doing much good. It just sits on the hotswap sockets. Getting painters tape to touch the pcb between the hotswap sockets is what will get you that sound.

Is the bottom row semi-transparent?

Awesome! Very cute! I was super excited to get my Sonnet in way earlier than expected thanks to the in-stock change. Originally was supposed to get it in March, but it came in a few days ago!

Reply to comment by jojowasher in K4 to Q5 upgrade, I'll finally stop hitting the right arrow instead of 0 on the numpad. This also sounds and feels worlds better. by TheSchneid

I’d suggest trying out the Haimu Heartbeat linears instead of using o-rings on normal switches. Those switches are damn near completely silent, and have a much better feel than the extra mushy bottom out that o-rings give you.

Edit: they will tint your RGB though. So that’s something to consider also.

After having a coiled cable for about 6 months, I’ve decided straight FEMO is the way to go.

Ah man that’s bad luck D: yeah the directions work. But like I mentioned in another comment, the “push” button on the joystick isn’t mapped.

I pretty much keep it on display, to be honest. It’s surprisingly tall, and the build is kinda wacky, but it’s fun. I’m definitely not a 40% user, but if you’re comfortable with one and the height isn’t a problem, then I’m sure you’ll like it.

One thing you should know is that the “push” functionality of the joystick isn’t mapped. And as far as I know there isn’t a simple way to do it.
