Title: [IC] GMK Cyan Full Set
Post by: feng on Fri, 19 September 2014, 00:38:28
Here's the official group buy: http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=63953.0


Here's the original group buy for GMK Cyan modifier keyset, but we've decided turning it into full set. http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=62048.0

We're done with most keys, just need some help with ISO keys. For now, we're planning to change the R3 \| key to R4 which fits right next to 1.25 left shift. The other keys should remain as is.

We're planning to provide three sets and two extra keys.

Set #1: Base set
[attach=1]

Set #2: LED add-on set
[attach=2]

Set #3: `~ and \| keys in cyan in order to have a balanced color matching.

Key 1: Blank Cyan R4 (bottom row) 1.25 Key

Key 2: Blank Cyan R4 1.00 key


MOQ for the base set is 50, the MOQ for the other keysets and keys is 150 (this 150 MOQ will be shared with a group buy in China, so it shouldn't be that hard to reach).

The group buy price for the base set is around $120 depending on if we're going to add any keys to this set.


Please post here if you are interested, or have any questions or suggestions. :)

I am definitely in for a set!

I still don't like the icon mods, but I guess this is already decided.


For ISO you need 4 extra keys in total:

1x ISO enter key (cyan with white legends)
1x 1,25 left shift key (cyan with white legends)
1x R3 alpha key (white with cyan legends) normally "~#"
1x R4 alpha key (white with cyan legends) normally "|\"

Since all the legends are wrong for me anyway I don't care what's on the extra ISO alpha keys as long as they are NOT blank!

Edit:    typo

Post by: IvanIvanovich on Fri, 19 September 2014, 09:00:23
If you just want to keep the ISO part simple, and keep it with straight US but in ISO the correct thing is to have row C \| 1 unit key and a blank row B 1 unit for between 1.25 shift and Z.
I really like this. I hope I have money when this goes live.

Idea... this is pretty close to something I was thinking about doing anyway... so maybe add a little flavor pack to this?
WASD and Esc - UN33656 on U9 (thats magenta on sandy beige)
arrows and enters UN6037 on UN33656 (thats white on magenta)
Give it that Miami Beach feels?

Post by: Den441 on Fri, 19 September 2014, 20:15:19
I would prefer the alphas were cyan on light grey just because I think GMK's UN6037 is pretty bright for pure white alphas. I am definitely still interested though.

Please post here if you are interested, or have any questions or suggestions. :)

SCHWEET GEEZUS H. KHRIST - Count me in for at least 4 sets.  YES, if it's labelled GMK I'll buy it easily because you can't get pure ABS perfection then here with these German Made wonders.

Feng, let us know when you'll start this important Group Buy and above all else CLEARLY specify start and end dates so no one misses out on getting these babies  8) .

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Based on the GMK color samples I've seen floating around, I think 3K or 2M would look great. It wouldn't really alter the overall look of this set, only add some more contrast to the alphas and give it more of that great vintage TA vibe.

The problem is that color is a result of fading, the caps were not that color originally and there isn't really anything close to that to use in GMK's catalog of colors.

GMK MOQ for custom color is 700 units (they have a minimum order from their materials vendor). It's not any more expensive, but probably not feasible for us due to the scale required.
Title: Re: [IC] GMK Cyan Full Set
Post by: bazh on Tue, 23 September 2014, 14:28:59
I thought MOQ for custom color is 600? (I remember from the Toxic GB when we had the idea to switch to GMK, though it doesn't mean anything much 'cause we'll never get to that number anyway)

And I remember someone said that the TA set is just Cyan color wear off right?

If you just want to keep the ISO part simple, and keep it with straight US but in ISO the correct thing is to have row C \| 1 unit key and a blank row B 1 unit for between 1.25 shift and Z.
I really like this. I hope I have money when this goes live.

So you meant like three extra keys added to the standard US layout? Including ISO enter, R3 \|, and a blank R4 1 unit for between 1.25 shift and Z.

UN6037 on UN33656 (cyan on magenta) sounds good to me. Not sure why we need the UN33656 on U9 though. I think it doesn't match with cyan.

Please, whatever you do, DO NOT just throw in a blank key.

It looks so retarted if every key has a legend except a single one. It will always stick out.

For me that would be enough to not buy the set.

So what I am trying to say is, please put something on the key between Z and Shift (see my proposal on the previous page)


Thanks for considering  :thumb:

It is supposed to be a "<>|" key between left shift and Z? I was checking some ISO keys on google, but I was so confused because it seems like not all ISO layouts are the same.

Yes, there are many different ISO versions with slight differences.

Since all the other legends (especially num row) are wrong for ISO users, anyway it doesn't really matter what you put on it. The only important thing (at least to me) is a consistent look.

The "<>|" key is for the German ISO layout. Most GBs on Geekhack have the ISO UK version in their ISO kit ("| \").

Just pick one and I will buy a full set  :thumb:

If there's a R4 \| key for the ISO UK version, then do we still need the R3 \| key as originally added to the full set?

Yes, there are many different ISO versions with slight differences.

Since all the other legends (especially num row) are wrong for ISO users, anyway it doesn't really matter what you put on it. The only important thing (at least to me) is a consistent look.

The "<>|" key is for the German ISO layout. Most GBs on Geekhack have the ISO UK version in their ISO kit ("| \").

Just pick one and I will buy a full set  :thumb:

If there's a R4 \| key for the ISO UK version, then do we still need the R3 \| key as originally added to the full set?

No, the R3 key (next to ISO enter) should be the "#~" key  :thumb:

see this for more information (or more confusion):

So we just need three keys including ISO enter, R3 ~#, and R4 \| in order to complete a simple ISO layout?

Yes,

4 extra keys in total. See my post on page 1:



I am definitely in for a set!

I still don't like the icon mods, but I guess this is already decided.


For ISO you need 4 extra keys in total:

1x ISO enter key (cyan with white legends)
1x 1,25 left shift key (cyan with white legends)
1x R3 alpha key (white with cyan legends) normally "~#"
1x R4 alpha key (white with cyan legends) normally "|\"

Since all the legends are wrong for me anyway I don't care what's on the extra ISO alpha keys as long as they are NOT blank!

Actually, I'd rather see the \| on R3 like it's the default for the "US-International" keyboard layout in Windows and Mac OS. We surely want to go with international and not just UK, right? :)

The ~# only makes sense on UK layouts where there's a 3£ instead of a 3# key.

What's the MOST widely accepted ISO layout? If the \| key is R3, then what's for the R4 key between left shift and Z?

As I said, I don't care because the legends are wrong anyway, but I think using the International layout might be the best compromise  :thumb:

Matt3o did it well in his granite group buy

with that sort of kit : (https://d2qmzng4l690lq.cloudfront.net/resizer/797x777/r/MD-3318_20140823133913_ab4e2c31006eef73.jpg)

you cover a lot of ISO layout .

It worked well , and if us europeans can be smart enough we split a big kit like we did for granite .

Only UK ISO will be "screwed" since ISO kit is often cheaper . But other ISO are so hard to find , we hardly can passe on those kind of deals .

This is simply not feasible with GMK.

No ANSI user will pay for this ****load of caps (I wouldn't either) and there is no way we can reach MOQ of 250 for this set.

I think it's good enough to have 2 generic Alpha keys plus the left shift + ISO Enter to complete an ISO set.

No, every kit has to have at least 250 orders while PMK allows orders as low as 10.

That's why it's so hard to run a succesful GMK GB...

That's actually Apple's version of the English International ISO layout. I don't think GMK has a `~ for R4.

Ivan's Dolch does have the \| key twice. One for R3 and one for R4, so that's always an option. Depending on whether it's a huge impact in price or not, maybe R3 #~ and \| as well as an R4 \| might be an option? This way both US and UK ISO users would be happy(ish).

Post by: FrostyToast on Thu, 25 September 2014, 08:42:47
Even though I don't use it at all,  I would cough up extra cash for a big enter if it means some users being able to use this set.
Title: Re: [IC] GMK Cyan Full Set
Post by: IvanIvanovich on Thu, 25 September 2014, 09:25:05
US ISO has the \| key next to enter. The key next to left shift can be same or blank, though on Windows it actually does nothing so is most often left as blank. If you want to have UK ISO then you could always just include the 5 GB layout specific keys as it wouldn't be more than a couple EUR cost increase and you would have a proper GB layout not half assed one.
Title: Re: [IC] GMK Cyan Full Set
Post by: chrisq on Thu, 25 September 2014, 09:37:58
Please, whatever you do, DO NOT just throw in a blank key.

It looks so retarted if every key has a legend except a single one. It will always stick out.

For me that would be enough to not buy the set.
So what I am trying to say is, please put something on the key between Z and Shift (see my proposal on the previous page)
Thanks for considering  :thumb:

Please also remeber that this is just one guys opinion, personally I would much rather have a blank key than the wrong legend.   :thumb:

I was looking to see if the set would include a row 2 - 1.5x backspace/delete mod key.

I also wanted the set to include row 1 - 1x delete/backspace mod key.

As far as I know, UN0001 is GMK's pure white. A few of us Triumph Adler fans requested light grey earlier in the thread because it would look closer to the TA color scheme we love, but it looks like the colors are set already. The pink color pack really only matches with the pure white, so that confirmed it for me. I am a bit concerned about how well the cyan legends on the alphas will show up on the pure white though. However, I do know from looking at the pics from Ivan's Dolch color pack that White on Cyan looks awesome.

Pretty sure the white/light gray is for the alphas base color, not the lettering, which is cyan. So there should be no difference when matching with other sets.

That lighting/photo still makes it look very off-white (cream/gray-ish).  Would need some daylight photos next to a pure white sheet of paper or some such.
I already set white balance before making the picture using a white sheet. It really is slightly cream/greyish.

For those of you that participated in the first of my GMK buys, that Esc key with red on white is UN001 for reference.

You have, but the resulting photograph, as it's portrayed on my calibrated monitor, still shows incorrect color for cyan--too blue where it should be more teal--I own GMK's "cyan" keycaps.  So while white balance may have been correct, color accuracy is also dependent on other factors, such as camera RAW data processing, post-processing, saturation/vibrancy settings, both of our monitors, etc., etc.  In short, it's nice to have reference colors in a photograph.

That diversion aside, thank you for confirming that it's not pure white!!

I'll do you one better ;)

Ivan's Round 2 PBT 'White' with Magenta dyesub|Geekhack Xtravaganza BoB
GMK white Esc with red doubleshot|Geekhack Xtravaganza Grey on White 'Monocloud'

It's not as grey as the Dyesub but not as clear white as the SP white one. Though the differences are marginal at best.

And feel free to dabble with the colour temperature if you want. You can find the original resolution if you click on the photos a few times. :)

i don't think the color of the base will break the compatibility of the alpha with other sets.
i think the color of the legend (cyan) on the alpha kit will be more noticeable when mixed with other sets.

I'm going to be buying the base set. No light grey alphas, but at least the GMK white is not as clear, bright white as SP's. JaccoW's comparison pic helped me make my decision. I think feng is just waiting on the quote from GMK now. He said that about a week ago, so hopefully this buy will be up and running soon!
