[IC] Pulse SA - Round 3

[MiTo]

Alphas

Three distinct selections to pick from – regular legends, inverse color scheme and nordic runes – Dieter Rams kit from Canvas XDA.




Modifiers

Two different options – classic text or exclusive Micons convention modifiers from Canvas/Godspeed XDA, also the standalone numpad.




Hobbyist & Exotic

The Hobbyist kits are standalone kits for 60% keyboards and extension for TKL form factors and above. The Exotic kit is an extension for odd & snowflakey layouts.




Ortholinear & 40%

These are standalone modifier kits for ortholinear and 40% keyboards, such as OLKB Planck & Preonic, Vortexgear Core and several others.




Split

Available in two different options – blanks & legended, these are standalone modifier kits for split keyboards such as Infinity ErgoDox, Kinesis and others.



Languages & Systems

       
Extension kits for international users, different languages, efficiency layouts and operating systems.



Decoration

       
       

These kits provide the user with alternate options for keyboard ornamentation. There are logos from Nico Tzogalis in opaque and translucent options. The classic megaphone, printer and trash can designs made a return from the previous rounds, with the addition of the Cyan Cross. The Arrows kit comes with bold and ergonomic arrow options. There are communities coats of arms and also a monolegend number row, for a minimalistic look.



Spacebars

Extra spacebars to substitute shine or complement Alphas/Zambs/Rams, depending on the specific layout and kits selected. Also a small selection of Blanks to act as spacebars for Planck, etc.



Mitolet



This exclusive monokit is designed in the 2.2.3.3.3.3 spherical profile configuration from Signature Plastics, for those who find the 1.1.2.3.4.3 configuration too aggressive. Similarly to what I’ve done with Godspeed SA.

It features a custom recipe for the shade of violet with the resin pigmentation fine tuned by me – result of Legacy DSA & Laser GMK sampling phases.

The Mitolet monokit is designed to provide adequate layout coverage for some 40% keyboards and the vast majority of ANSI and WKL 60%, 65% and standard TKL keyboards – such as Vortexgear Core & Poker, Tokyo 60, Rama M60A, Tada 68, KBD 75, Keycool 87 and plenty of others.




Merchandise & Comissions

From custom merchandising, sleeves, hand made artisan keycaps to stickers and other keyboard items, if you are interested in contributing with your talents and know-how, please drop me a message (mito.rmk@gmail.com) – I would love to hear your ideas and help you bring your vision to reality. Lots of community members got involved in the Laser GMK project, hopefully we can work together!

Thank you very much for looking, I'd like to know if there's enough interest to make this run happen!

Let me know if you have specific requests to make.

[MikeTheTiger]

Yes!!

[Fluffypupper22]

I've been waiting. Thank you for bringing back the set that got me into this hobby.

[LightningXI]

HYPE, time to double my PuLSE collection

[Puddsy]

i like the idea of the monokit, but i don't understand why it's a part of this GB and not it's own thing

also why is it kaps with a k, not with a c

that's weird

[jdcarpe]

Already have plenty of PuLSE, myself, but...nice!

I might need those minibars or a 40% kit

[Shell058]

So excited to add more to my PuLSE collection! This is the set that hooked me. <3

[Valaris]

I love Mitolet. So much purple coming out lately!

[kevinzavier]

[BobCarltheThird]

Looks like I need to sell some of my stuff )

[M]

Mitolet looks sick! Gonna have to save up for this one...

[dsaf]

Let me know if you have specific requests to make.

Yes, please:

1) Please add back the missing novelties:

 

2) An F-row color flex-kit would be great!

[futurecrime]

Love the Mitolet set. Would be wonderful if it could have homing T and N for Colemak, although I understand there's probably a whole bunch of other keys people would want added for compat before you start servicing the tiny subset of Colemak users... but I had to ask anyway.

[Unforgivable]

Show Image

And it’s people like Oblotzky that make a thread a million times better, lol. Thank you for the laugh!!

@Mito,

I love Mitolet, but would be happy if it included the needed HHKB/Winkeyless keycaps. (R1 1u |\, 1.5 CTRL/ALT, 7u Spacebar, etc.)

I’d honestly prefer (1.1.2.3.4.3) as well.

+1 for CAPS, instead of KAPS.

Just my 2 cents!

[a_ak57]

Maybe I just didn't notice it, but it seems none of the kits have the R1 1u |\ key for HHKB style layouts.  Was that R2 one in the exotic kit supposed to be R1?

[futurecrime]

Massively agree with caps not kaps. Kinda ruins it a little for me.

[Techno Trousers]

1) Please add back the missing novelties:

+1 Please roll the community keys into novelty and add DT back into the mix.

Woah, that image got edited before I posted. Were the community keys originally in the novelties, and was a DT key produced?

Sorry, I was after Home, End, Page Up/Down etc...

[Data]

I can't not buy this again.

Take my money.   

[Techno Trousers]

Okay, looks like a DT key was produced. Please include it in the communities set! And +1 for the alternate image keys for insert/delete, home/end, PageUp/PageDown. Maybe they could go into the "arrows" kit if they don't belong in novelties any longer?

[cijanzen]

This looks really good and refreshed enough with some new ideas to definitely warrant a rerun. I'd love to see the Mitolet in sculpted profile! Great job.

[RealLaugh]

hyped for alphas, 40s and spacebars kits

...and also Mitolet!!!! got me drooling!!!

Would be great to maybe see how the Mitolet set works with turquoise modifiers in case one would like to mix. Of course it is <3 on it's own 

[gutsack]

What year will this ship? I have a five year-old, will SP produce this in time for him to see it before he goes off to college?

Still, though, interested. Especially in the runics. Agree with others that Mitolet seems like it should be a separate thing.

[d0thead]

Just make it happen already! Black Dieter rams look so good!

[hamilton]

Yes, I've been waiting for this

[zslane]

Is there a row3 1.25u FN key anywhere? I don't see one.

[Vigrith]

Sorry but why was this moved? It's going to highly impair the thread's success and by association the hype generated around the set because no one ever reads this sub-forum when compared to IC. Which is what this is, an interest check, regardless of whether or not it's affiliated with Massdrop.

Agreed.  I guess he torpedoed himself when he linked to the MD IC?

I think it was  supposed to be the  one in Exotics, but he marked it r2 instead of r1.

+1, this is an IC and should therefor stay in IC forum. Once the GB has launched this thread would be closed and a GB thread can be opened here in the MD forum.

Addressing to some of the input that has been provided, thank you all so much for the feedback! Will adress the other messages soon, too.

Yes!!

At your service, hope you enjoy the stay in this hobby and it brings you lots of satisfaction and joy. We love keyboards!

GMK pulse when

Thank you very much for the input Puddsy, really appreciate it. The idea for the monokit was to bring something unique and a bit exclusive to the project, in order to offer the Cockpit setup variation for those who don't like the usual 112343. I don't exactly see why we would need all kits done with that, I'm under the impression that everything I envisioned for it is already covered - will add a couple 1.5u's and of course the 7u SPC. This way we will cover a lot of people without having a solo buy, a huge kit or expensive kits broken down. It' just an extra flavor, to offer a cool new product.

As for KAPS, I thought it would be funny to have a stylish keycap like that. KAPS as a reference for KeycAPS because let's be honest - who really needs a proper CAPS LOCK anyway? Double word modifier, rarely used keycap... Let's add some style there, make something unique! As for Pulse GMK, things are shaping nicely for that, I think we gonna have a very dope version on the profile, once it's all ready and figured out the way I like it to be. We are concluding the Laser stuff, too.

I love Mitolet. So much purple coming out lately!

💜 ~> this is a purple heart emoji, I swear.

Pulse all the way! Great job Mito!

At your service Koob! You've got the Koob Keeb suited up! Hope you like the renders on the page, anything you need or a specific config just let me know!

[get_weird]

Any chance for nav cluster novelties like the first set?

[ruhe]

I know it might be going out on a limb... but is there a possibility the ErgoDox/ErgoPro kit could be done with icon mods instead of text mods?

I know Ergo caps with legends are difficult because everyone has their keys mapped differently, but I feel like the icons are artistic and abstract enough that it wouldn't matter how the keys were technically labeled because the presentation would be so good.

That aside, it's a great set and I'm in!

[Fallakin]

Probably also going out on a limb....

Any chance for a 6.5u Spacebar for those of us using corsair keyboards? 

[Hokabuki]

Probably also going out on a limb....

Poor Corsair users never have a chance. Would the stabs even allow for it?

[Jedi]

I would really like to ask if Mitolets be in the same SA fully sculpted keyset.  It's difficult to do flat perfectly with greater than a 60% which is why I keep godspeed all blue. I do have the cockpit kit too but sculpted just fits custom boards so much more nicely and is easier to get compatibility with the Extras kits. I get the desire to offer an alternate for ortho and ergodox users but the loss is felt harder on all the other keyboards and keyboard customs that would go with the colorway. I am really loving that designers have shifted toward keeping a "common" fully sculpted keyset (seen that positive change take place over the last two years) and that really makes it more possible to be more creative with mixing sets as opposed to only having one style possible because two designers used different SA profiles. Sets are expensive as it is not to mention the time to production so it would be nice to consider this if the community supports it.

If anyone else agrees, please speak up in the IC.

Signature Plastics does not have a mold for this Spacebar size.

[euphxenos]

In the Text Hobbyist kit, I suspect the 1U R4 PgUp was supposed to be a PgDn.

Agreed on this, I would really like the Mitolets in same SA fully sculpted profile
