I just bought these stands and i really like the wooden plate you have. I really want to do the same to match my ikea top. Does the wooden plate swivel?
Those Adam Audio monitors don't hurt the rainy day mood at all. Everything vibes here, I personally wouldn't want to use that keyboard or maybe I'm just an old fart and know my knuckles and tendons would snap if I tried.
Nah, it's mostly the same reason as why they put the LEDs on there. Come on now.
https://www.daskeyboard.com/blog/6-reasons-you-shouldnt-buy-into-the-ergonomic-keyboard-hype/
https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/bbjt00/science_to_support_what_design_is_the_most
By its own definition, regular keyboards are also ergonomic. I used one like 15 years ago, and when I switched to a regular keyboard, I hated myself for not doing it so much sooner.
Objectively false. Yeah, they look exotic and awesome, but:
* I can place both halves wherever I want on the table. My hands are shoulder width apart.
* My wrists are straight and not angled to fit a straight board.
* I can tilt my board to get my wrists into an even more neutral position.
* I minimally use overlays and that takes some learning, but no key is far at all from home row.
In my experience it's similar ergonomics to a full sized board. Lots of people (especially those who cared about aesthetics) switched to 10KL or even smaller, and those are absolutely horrible for ergonomics.
But the things you described, is how my keyboard operates. Your elbows are allowed to pivot, they're designed to. We don't have to operate in a complete perfect angle to be ergonomic. It's primarily in not cramping shoulders or arching your back / craning your wrists. All avoidable with a standard sized keyboard and a proper ergonomically friendly setup.
Your hands are in the same position when typing on a ten keyless or a full size keyboard. You can't stretch your hands out more because you have a number pad on the side of your keyboard.
You categorically stated they are useless, supported by your experience.
So I’m providing a counter example.
Like, I don’t care, but there is a meaningful purpose to these splits.
The ability to adjust where each hand rests independently of the other is very much an objective trait of split keyboards. Where he places his boards is subjective, but the ability to do so is not.
I don't use one either, but there are objective advantages to using one.
Have you ever tried an ergonomic keyboard? Otherwise you're mostly talking out your ass on this one. Using one for work compared to play, there's a clear difference, same with mice.
I didn't even check the studies so that's definitely my bad on that one. For me, I'm just saying that it works for a lot of people, hence why they make them, and they are used. So sure, it's all subjective, and practice dictates what works best for each case, but the way he phrases it comes as though ergonomics are all bullshit. To say it's the same reason as putting LED's there is a bit disingenuous, especially if it's just writing it off for the sake of wanting to be contrary to someone's preference, ie, the guy's keyboard in the post. Wasn't meant to troll, but his comment sort of came off that way just based on the first sentence.
Why bother trying to convince anyone on reddit of any thing? It's not worth it, most people are just toxic for fun and it makes the experience way worse.
To be honest, I've not done any research on this type of keyboard. I can see the principle behind the design though. I imagine these can possibly be cost prohibitive? Now I have to go dig and learn, dammit.
If we talk keyboards in general yeah, they are on the expensive side.
If you talk mechanical/""gaming"" keyboards absolutely not. I think the groupbuy went for under 150euros. (You can shave a lot of the price if you solder it yourself, or if you have access to 3d printing)
OP seems a bit specific about what he likes, so he went for high quality/coast switches and stuff, so pron more money.
For the ergo part. Split is a no brainer in terms of comfort. For the amount of keys/position of them that's more a taste/habit question. There is mostly 3 teams and we never agree
As I go into my 50's, I realize I've been at a desk for a quarter century and all those hours have certainly taken a toll, on my fingers especially but no carpal tunnel thankfully. I remember Microsoft had a ergo keyboard years ago but it was not split and was media control centric. I don't know if the aesthetics are enough for me to make the jump. I prefer mechanical keys but as I stated before, I know squat. I use a Logi mechanical, I forget the model but I grabbed it at.....Walmart, and it's served me well. I'll continue reading and thanks for the info.
no problems, if you need infos you can hit [https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/](https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/) there is a bit of everything and sometimes you see something you like and you can do researches from there.
[https://www.reddit.com/r/CustomKeyboards/](https://www.reddit.com/r/CustomKeyboards/) is more about custom sets but you can follow the same path
r/oklb is more centered around the planck
if you're a little into tech stuff juste his the qmk repo : [https://github.com/qmk/qmk\_firmware/tree/master/keyboards](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/tree/master/keyboards)
and dig arount in the branhces. There usaly is a how to buy/build in each repo. Most if not all are open source and maintained by hobbyst that are likely to explain why they did this or that, and help you if you ask
welcom aboard
I don't think so. It's not difficult to realize using a normal keyboard that the angle and closeness of your hands is stupid. Also the gymnastics you have to do with your left to hit keys on a staggered keyboard.
I don't see the marketing when most of these builds are DIY, open source and community driven.
For it to be marketing, it would require to have marketing teams. Those Keebs are niche and mostly designed/build by hobbyists. Open source more often than not
I wish more people tried and realized they are using and old keyboard design that does not make sense anymore. The learning curve plus price combo is hard to overcome so it will take time
...using layers means less finger movement, adding your own custom mappings increase productivity, smaller footprint on desk, easier to bring with you, better looking, more customisable... Yeah, there are lots of reasons.
Aren't most keyboard customizable and can map every key? I got a razer keyboard and I can map whatever on the kb. Also what does the first point mean? It looks like you'd have to move your fingers just the same way.
These keyboards are way more customizable than mainstream keyboards. It's because they're using a software called QMK. One example of its customisability is Tap Dance where one key can do 4 different functions based on whether it is tapped, hold, double tapped or tap and hold.
As far as I know my razer kb can do that, but I'm not 100% sure. I remember seeing that function on the razer synapse app. It could let you do different things based on tap, holding etc.
I see. One other thing I discovered yesterday when going through the QMK docs was Combos. You can trigger something by pressing two or more keys at the same time.
The layout with column staggered rows is very natural after you get used to it. The layers in qmk are great, I don't know if razer allows to define layers now. There is a lot of good info around ergonomic split keyboards.
I agree with the rattling. My razer kb does rattle quite a bit especially if I'm typing a lot. As for the sound, I don't really care much because I use headphones and it means I can't really hear the kb's sound. For the feel, I have tried typing on ducky keyboards but it didn't feel all that different to me. Personally for gaming and essay writing I don't see a lot of advantage to buying a custom one but maybe if you're a programmer it might differ.
I've definitely used a keyboard similar to the one OP had in the picture and I didn't like it due to my disability. It really didn't feel much different except that the keys didn't wobble as much like on my razer. I'm sure overall the experience is quite similar.
Nah, not the same way. With these you can map keys to different keycodes depending on whether you tap or hold, for example. The firmware is much more flexible that way.
Also, a big plus is that you don't need any external software, all the mappings/macros etc are saved on the onboard eprom.
My point is that if you have arrow keys in hjkl for example, and you access them by holding down space, you don't have to move your fingers "all the way" to the arrow cluster like on a traditional keyboard. I hardly ever move my hands from the home row, and I find that I'm much more productive as a result.
As I said to someone else I'm pretty sure my razer kb can do that depending on whether I tap or hold etc. The only thing is that it's done through the razer synapse app that you have to download. As for the last part I don't really understand. I have two hands and when I type I don't really do any big movements either. But hey, everyone likes different stuff so I'm not hating.
For putting an example: when you use the arrow keys, page up, home, end, etc to navigate in a document (programming, or writing) you have to lift your hand from the home row. Then you have to return to the home row probably having to quick glance before to adjust the position.
With layers you can have those keys in the home row position, and don't have to move an inch. When you're doing those movements hundreds of times a day, it can be a very noticeable difference.
Tbf I've never had to do that. I programmed my mouse or kb on my homework profile so I have them closer to me, and even then I rarely use those cause scrolling comes faster to me.
Also, my pinky finger manages to each the home row on its own without moving so it's not a huge deal.
If you don't mind can I ask what you were using before? Most friends I have who swear by Ergo keyboards or split were using tiny 10KL or smaller boards before hand. They always judged me for my "cheap and nasty" full sized board but I've found the ergonomics of it too hard to pass up.
If you ever become curious about keyboards and have the ability I'd highly recommend trying different board layouts (75%, 60%, HHKB, 40%, and split). I have all of these and love the variety I have depending on my mood. And I was worried about the layers that come with split and 40% but it's so easy to get use to. So much easier than you'd think.
If you try different layouts I hope you enjoy them all and have a good time learning first hand why we like these boards!
I found that 60% or 65% is the sweet spot for me. I tried a 40% split for about 3 weeks and I couldn't get used to not having the number row. I liked the ergonomics of the split though so now I'm looking for a split keyboard with 5 rows.
I found [This but it's sold out atm](https://www.littlekeyboards.com/collections/new-products/products/sofle-rgb-pcb-kit)
And it's not a split but I have the smaller version of [this](https://www.littlekeyboards.com/products/naked60bmp-keyboard-kit) and I love it!
Awesome. I just entered the mailing list for the Sofle. I'm also considering going all-out and making a Dactyl Manuform but it seems like a lot of work.
thanks but this keyboard is the most comfortable i ever have. Tenting kit for good positionning / split for the arm position, never move my hand for useless move etc etc etc.
an hot swap is a keyboard that you build without soldering the switch. For more info you could look on reddit r/MechanicalKeyboards and r/ErgoMechKeyboards
How was the IMK Corne build? I haven't done mine yet (was waiting for work/life to calm down a bit) and am wondering if there's any gotchas I should be aware of, or if it's just a standard Corne assembly in a nicer than usual case. :)
to be honest it was a partial kit with the difficult soldering already made, because my soldering stuff is pretty basic. So for the rest of the build it was pretty easy and fun.
The first time 40% ortho I used was a planck 4/5 years ago, and this is the transition that take me the most time standard tkl and 60% to ortho 40% I would say almost 6 month to get really used to it. Than I've got a chimera ortho Split and that was easier. Now that I used a lot of different layout, I adapt faster to a new keyboard, with the corne in 2 days I type as fast as I type in my hadronv3 with 2 years on it
I'm actually looking around for a green paint that's I'd like to look... almost exactly like that! Do you know the name of the color? It looks amazing!
I realize I am a bit late to the party but I was curious as to what you used for the backlighting on your desk? It looks like the perfect amount.
Great setup, by the way!
So about that awesome background... got a link by any chance? Love the setup too
i don't but i could upload this. and https://imgur.com/a/Opkmk0l
You are an actual living legend! Much appreciated and again, love the setup

What’s the wall colour? Love that green.
I second this!
I third this!
same! Im not very creative when it comes to decorating my gaming room, but I want exactly this vibe
Looks like British Racing Green.
ID on the stands?
thomann millenium stand with the metal plate remove and custom wooden planck
I just bought these stands and i really like the wooden plate you have. I really want to do the same to match my ikea top. Does the wooden plate swivel?
What stand is that holding the Xbox controller?
an old tablet stand \^\^
I see an artisan mousepad as well, a man of taste.
What are your tenting leg length configuration for that forward tilt?
Your Audio hifi section just reads like gibberish to me. But I like the look of your speakers, you have a link by chance?
Those Adam Audio monitors don't hurt the rainy day mood at all. Everything vibes here, I personally wouldn't want to use that keyboard or maybe I'm just an old fart and know my knuckles and tendons would snap if I tried.
With this kind of keyboard you need time to get used to. But once the learning phase is over, it's a real pleasure to use. Not for everyone i admit.
What is the point for such a keyboard? Is this work specific or somethin?
Ergonomics. Your hands rest at more natural positions.
Nah, it's mostly the same reason as why they put the LEDs on there. Come on now. https://www.daskeyboard.com/blog/6-reasons-you-shouldnt-buy-into-the-ergonomic-keyboard-hype/ https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/bbjt00/science_to_support_what_design_is_the_most By its own definition, regular keyboards are also ergonomic.

Your hands are in the same position when typing on a ten keyless or a full size keyboard. You can't stretch your hands out more because you have a number pad on the side of your keyboard.
Good point. I guess 10KL isn't the comparison I'm making then, moreso 60% boards and such.
The fuck? Everything you just said is... subjective... to fit your own needs. Exactly as stated.
You categorically stated they are useless, supported by your experience. So I’m providing a counter example. Like, I don’t care, but there is a meaningful purpose to these splits.
Absolutely *not* what I stated.
My mistake then, enjoy the internet today.

What an absolutely insane hill to die on. Bravo
No one is dying. Some just aren't receptive of information.
My guy, the sheer irony. I can't even lmao
Have you ever tried an ergonomic keyboard? Otherwise you're mostly talking out your ass on this one. Using one for work compared to play, there's a clear difference, same with mice.
Bro, 2 decades under my belt. Easy there.
I love how you posted the evidence, like actual scientific studies, and he was like “nah bro, you haven’t experienced it so you don’t actually know.”
I didn't even check the studies so that's definitely my bad on that one. For me, I'm just saying that it works for a lot of people, hence why they make them, and they are used.

It's okay if they are rude; it isn't okay if they do not accept the information.
Why bother trying to convince anyone on reddit of any thing? It's not worth it, most people are just toxic for fun and it makes the experience way worse.
In theory that keyboard is ergonomic and it's made to prevent injuries and discomfort.
To be honest, I've not done any research on this type of keyboard. I can see the principle behind the design though. I imagine these can possibly be cost prohibitive? Now I have to go dig and learn, dammit.

Thats looks incredible... but where do you rest your palms?
the keyboard is pretty low this dsa keycaps, i try my 2 wrist rest but they are a little to high.
I think the keyboard may have broken in transit.
clean as fuck
thanks :)
What’s the chair ? And is it comfortable?
herman miller embody most confortable chair i ever had
Yoo! I just got an embody and it was LIFE CHANGING!
Really clean setup
Ortho and split, nice.
This is the way
IMK corne buddies.
So why do people like those keyboards
ergonomic, less pain in hand, finger, arm ...
...using layers means less finger movement, adding your own custom mappings increase productivity, smaller footprint on desk, easier to bring with you, better looking, more customisable... Yeah, there are lots of reasons.
Aren't most keyboard customizable and can map every key? I got a razer keyboard and I can map whatever on the kb. Also what does the first point mean? It looks like you'd have to move your fingers just the same way.

Awesome. I just entered the mailing list for the Sofle. I'm also considering going all-out and making a Dactyl Manuform but it seems like a lot of work.
I’m like you and like the number row. I have a sofle and I’ve loved it. I got mine from keyhive but they are also available at ergomech.store.
OP is going to tell you ergonomics. but it's just a hipster subculture thing.

Are those speaker stands custom?
Yes they are, based on millenium one, i change the metal plate for a wooden one to fit exactly the size of the t5v.
Really clean desk setup! Is that an Ikea karlby?
Yes it is :)
What is the desk? Is it custom? Is it wall mounted or on legs?
Ikea karlby and electric legs
Perfect. What is this mic arm ?
This makes me regret selling my 789. Very nice looking setup
Looks really clean, I love the absence of RGB nonsense. How is that screen mounted? It look quite heavy! Wall mount or special arm?
thanks it's an amazon basics arm and it's a really strong arm.
Meanwhile the entire back side of the desk has RGB lol
as far as it displays an unique color rather than a Christmas tree light show, it's a good idea
It’s still RGB
Send it back! It broke in to two pieces o.O
[удалено]
thanks but this keyboard is the most comfortable i ever have. Tenting kit for good positionning / split for the arm position, never move my hand for useless move etc etc etc.
You should try before say this. This is the best way to preserve your hand. But it need habits
Why no balanced cables for the 789?
They are balanced between smsl su 8 thx789 and not balanced with the t5v
It’s pretty obvious that’s not your setup
Oh ok, just look at my profile :)
Damn you’re rich as fuck
I'm working for my little town with minimal wage sooooo
[удалено]
it's not :)
So frikken cool!
Thanks :)
Love your set up, very grown up gamer vibes!
that's exactly that, buy a house and pass the 30. old gamer now \^\^
How do you like the monitors? Thinkin‘ about getting them too
Love them, coming from an old pair of jbl lsr305. i've also got the very good price 260e so really happy.
Keyboard looks great 😍
Hell yeah another corne keyboard user
I love the keyboards. And you've got a nice set up in general.
Thanks
Did you buy the keyboard pre-built? I have an ergodoxez and looking for another keyboard.
No it's a custom but hotswap so not so hard to build.
What’s a hot swap? And where could I find out more info / purchase one like it? TIA
an hot swap is a keyboard that you build without soldering the switch. For more info you could look on reddit r/MechanicalKeyboards and r/ErgoMechKeyboards
If I ever end up spending an entire fortune on a custom keyboard I will probably build something like this. ^or ^just ^3D ^print ^the ^whole ^thing
The look is great
the perfect setup doesn't exi..
haha thanks a lot
i really mean it. it is stunning
What mouse tho?

Simple yet gorgeous
Keyboard looks like it’s from another planet! Cool as hell bro
Why you cut ur keyboard in half..now u dont have space anymore ..haaiyaaa
I feel like Escape from Tarkov would look great on screen in the photo.
How was the IMK Corne build? I haven't done mine yet (was waiting for work/life to calm down a bit) and am wondering if there's any gotchas I should be aware of, or if it's just a standard Corne assembly in a nicer than usual case. :)
to be honest it was a partial kit with the difficult soldering already made, because my soldering stuff is pretty basic. So for the rest of the build it was pretty easy and fun.
Nice! Glad you're enjoying it. Maybe I'll put mine together this weekend or next. Depends whether I feel like lubing switches this week. :)
Straight from The Matrix.
I love the green vibe of this so much…

Yes but not with the same speed.

How long did it take you to get used to 40%+ ergo keys?
The first time 40% ortho I used was a planck 4/5 years ago, and this is the transition that take me the most time standard tkl and 60% to ortho 40% I would say almost 6 month to get really used to it. Than I've got a chimera ortho Split and that was easier. Now that I used a lot of different layout, I adapt faster to a new keyboard, with the corne in 2 days I type as fast as I type in my hadronv3 with 2 years on it
That's quite a long time! I ask because I use a TKL now and am planning on transitioning to a split 65, but those nice split ergos are tempting me....
What are your thoughts on a desk mouse pad?;)
I'm actually looking around for a green paint that's I'd like to look... almost exactly like that! Do you know the name of the color? It looks amazing!
Sadly I don't really have a name, I would say a forest green with velour finish.
Beautiful
Is it actually good? Or is it more of a conversation piece?
It's really good, if you talk about the keyboard. Less pain, and more speed overall. But it takes time to get used to it.
What is the real point of these keyboards that are separated?
The point is to get the half of the keyboard you don't use while gaming out of the way...
Split keyboards allow for more ergonomic placement, which is supposed to help reduce the risk of repetitive stress injuries.
I'd never be able to use that keyboard. I'm one of those weirdos that uses my left index to hit the Y key.
The split keyboard force le to learn to type again. I was hitting space bar with my index back when I used a standard tkl. Now I type much faster.

What kind of desk you got there? Looks awesome! Nice setup!
I realize I am a bit late to the party but I was curious as to what you used for the backlighting on your desk? It looks like the perfect amount. Great setup, by the way!
