I have a better idea. The first keyboard with noise cancellation!

If it works, I really hope you have some nice guitar distortion pedals (or an amp with some fx built in).

We’ve only ever heard our keyboards acoustically… but now as an electric instrument? (haha I get it). :sunglasses:
Turn the gain up to 11 and let’s rock :metal:

  • Portico Banana Split kit
  • Ducky Secret M (y u no keep selling?)
  • Awaken deskmat
  • excessive coffee

I don’t use lighting much but it’s pretty fun here.

Put Cyber on the Portico, with stock Gat Yellows underneath; the beginnings of a comparative project.

Bloody hell, that’s amazing. Is that as designed or did you do some modifying? Either way I love it.

It has RGB strips that are inside the case and shine out. The slits in the side that they shine through make a cool pattern. I’m pretty sure it was an accidental effect, but the included strips produce this effect for everyone that has a Saturn 60. Looks even better when animated, too!

It’s a straight up mini laser show on your desk whenever you want it. Talk about retro-futuristic design.

I would love for there to be another run of these.

I’ve also got my Saturn 60 set up! Didn’t install the LEDs on mine yet but I’m definitely gonna use them when I put it together with the included PCB. For now I’ve got an old DZ60 in there, I wanted to use Box Navies and knew I’d probably get tired of them eventually…

But right now they’re sick, feels like I’m entering launch codes whenever I type lol

It looks great! Need to install a key lock core and a covered switch to complete the missle launch theme.

The Alt is an oft-maligned keyboard, which is a shame because it’s actually a solid board and pretty nice to look at (and always available). And that bronze and 2048 go together like PB&J. To be fair, I don’t use RGB or Cherry profile with the Alt (so no diffusion or interference issues).

Built with L+F 3-pin Cherry MX Blacks (desoldered from my 980M). This board is acoustically and feel-wise better with heavy linears IME.

I have waffled back and forth so many times on MT3 2048… Thought I’d decided. I’ve also been searching for something to pair with my bronze CTRL. That looks really good.

I have re-entered the [ waffle zone ].


@fatalruin Is that bottom row what you were talking about in the PGA thread in terms of falling off of a shelf when the board is angled? Looking at the set I’m using now (an ABS version), its bottom row is the same sculpt as the next one up, instead of like what’s in the photo above.

Is that a difference between ABS and PBT MT3, or is that like an optional kit?

Extended 2048 has an R5 bottom row in the base modifier kit. All the other sets I’ve seen (ABS or PBT) have an R4 bottom row (like on yours).

No, I was talking about row 3, the home row. As far as I understand, MT3 has the option for two different profiles for the bottom row: one flatter and one more sculpted. It depends on what the designer selects.

On the desk today is my silver Xeno built with Gateron Pro yellow switches.

How do the pro yellows feel in a build? Hell, how does the Xeno feel?
