GMK TA 90 is cool.

Presume it'll be "TA", and not just shortening Triumph Adler? Because GMK Triumph Adler 90 would be too close imo.

GMK TA Origins. With an “s” at the end. Kinda like Originative’s “Hyperfuse Origins”.

Sounds cooler, IMO.

I also really like TA 90. It’s just easy to say and remember and type and stuff. Like 9009.

It seems that all the TA keyboards were made in 1990(Cherry date code C), so I would like to name this set "GMK TA 90".
What do you guys think?
GMK TA OG?
GMK TA Retro?
GMK TA Origin?

Barring accidents, GB will start next week!

I think it’s cool that it’s being offered, but I’m still sad there are no r4 mods that would work with tsangan style bottom row. R5 looks good with a few boards and totally awful with others.

I’d totally spend extra to get both >_<

Yeah makes sense. I’m also torn a bit since I want to use it on a board that’ll use both r0 and r5 but the only board that’ll take that is a 96 key that I have set up with 1.25u mods on the left.

If GMK had r5 1.25u mods then at least it would be consistently r5 for people that need to use both tsangan and standard bottom row keys.

I'm pretty sure that doesn't solve the r5 problem.

This is correct. It won't solve the issue with 1.25u modifiers for R5 bottom row keys.

Why don't you simply mix r4 1.5u cmy/rgy mod with this.
Sorry but 1.25u R5 bottom row is impossible.

I think there was some miscommunication.

CMY/RGB mods might work for someone who is fine with r4 mods. It’s still not a solution for someone who wants to use r5. Also, I think that CMY/RGB mods always look terrible so I’m definitely not going that route.

My comments about the r5 1.25u mods are more wishful thinking than anything. Maybe someday they’ll get made but for now I’m fine just switching my left side to 1.5u mods.

I must say of all the group buys right now, this is probably the one that I will hop on,
but with a promise date of June 24 on Kono Store and no GB open on Kono Store on the 26th
it does make one sad. (and re-consider gmk oasis and gmk terminal)

Re: [IC] GMK OG TA (Update :May 23)
« Reply #193 on: Tue, 26 June 2018, 21:47:16 »
reminds me of a brighter gmk hydro! would fit white cases a little better.

Truth be told, comparing this to hydro is like comparing a toy with a professional tool. Too many features that back the comment to enumerate them here.

True! Never compare a playful set with something as elegant and professional as Hydro!

Good try my friend. But the intrinsic  elegance of OG sets speaks louder.

So you're saying TA is louder?!


Edit:
I'm just pulling your leg, ideus. I'm a big fan of Hydro, but TA was my first GMK set and it's definitely really elegant and beautiful in its simplicity.

I'm just baffled that someone tried to compared the two in the first place!


IKR my friend.

For some reason I can't see the pictures in the first page. Is this R5 only?

I've never used R5 keys; mixing these keys with my sets would be impossible, plus I don't know if I like R5.
