Ok perfect, thanks a lot Muirium.

Also because when I saw this version of the Ducky mechanical keyboard I just want those:

Cool. ANSI (as you pictured) should be compatible with every caps group buy out there. But ISO shouldn't be too mich worse. You just have to look out for ISO kits that way. The best GBs will have them.

Which flavour of MX switch are you going for?

It in fact I decided to take it with ANSI ...

Thanks @Hypersphere and @Muirium.

After a bit of research, I think the best mechanical keyboard for me is the Ducky Zero DK2108 beacuse makes perfect multimedia keys that I need, from UK I was able to find it at a reasonable price around 70 pounds and is also very customizable seen riding the ...

Yes indeed, I'm not American. In fact, I was hoping to find some solution by ordering the necessary from England which is definitely more convenient.

Maybe it's habit, however, the shape of the L of Enter key, I am most familiar.

But where did you buy your CM STORM Novatouch ?

WASD Keyboards have plenty of customization options. You can get keyboards with customized ABS keycaps or without keycaps. They also have ANSI or ISO layouts.

Many people prefer PBT keycaps over ABS, although ABS double-shot keycaps can be quite nice.

There is currently a good set of PBT keycaps ...

Re: Custom mechanical keyboard

Topre. (Expensive.) And classic Model F style IBM. (Not manufactured any more.) Not nearly as easy to come by as MX!

Mechanical boards are all pretty easy when it comes to taking off caps and popping them back on again. The tricky part is sourcing new caps. MX has the best selection by far (which ...

Media keys are a little unusual. I got mine here, when the group buy was still active:

Caps are a whole world of their own. Beware! Be very beware! 7bit will have every penny you possess in the blink of an eye…

As for old keyboards with ...

Ok thank you for your help, I'm reading your review, but where did you get all different kinds of keys ?

You know if there is any old keyboard that assembles the Cherry switch ?

Yeah, I've got one of each.

Dedicated media keys are a bit of a rarity on mechanicals. Unless you want to turn the function key row over to them.

If I buy such a basic CM STORM mechanical keyboard and I remap the keys through the program SharpKeys so as to have, for example, on a key directly to ...

Many mechs have media keys, they're just hidden away on a layer. You press Fn and another key to do volume and playback controls. The NovaTouch does it that way:

Meanwhile any old (pre-USB) mechanical ...

Custom mechanical keyboard

Hello everyone ;) ,

I would like to pass to a mechanical keyboard with switch cherry MX brown, but looking at the various brands of the mechanical keyboard, I noticed very few mechanical keyboards have multimedia keys.

I saw the custom WASD Keyboards but is really too expensive, could you tell me ...
