Wait... EM.7 is Lynn, too? Incredible! EM.7 would be my top choice at the moment. The most beautiful ergo board I've seen.
Edit: The fact that the ends of EM.7 look like the Dolphin should have told me who the designer is. But I missed that.

lol yeah it's too bad I got on board too late and missed all these great GBs like Duck Blackbird, Duck Viper v2, and Duck Orion v2.
I joined Rama's M65-A as well as LZ-CLS for now, but plan on joining Duck Lightsaber v3 when the GB comes out in a few weeks (probably sometime in February so hold your wallet tight lmao) and another one that will be made in very small quantity (secret hehe) :D
If however Lightsaber v3 doesn't live up to my expectation I may just go for a kit/used Duck Blackbird or Duck Orion v2 and call it a day for custom keyboards..
I was a die-hard Topre fan and went through many Realforce and HHKBs, and currently have 2 Type-S and BT. Still loving HHKB and its layout.

Here we go again... I can't reliably measure latency, but I'm 100% sure that in some cases the 32A based boards can have slightly higher latency than 32u2/32u4 based ones. This is very possibly because of the native USB support of the 32u2 and 32u4 compared to the V-USB implementation the 32a requires. I've generally had less latency on Leeku L3 boards compared to the ps2avrGB based VE.A, but even the L3's can be slightly slower than Duck's 32u(2/4) based solutions.
I play rhythm games in my free time, and since these have very tight timing windows the 20+ms of the ps2avrGB based VE.A are very noticeable, the L3 based TX87 PCB with the newest firmware (the older one with the RGB bug was noticeably worse) are very close to the performance of my Duck and my TK78 which both use a 32u4(which was exactly the same as the performance of my old Quickfire TK), but I think it still is a few ms behind but nowhere close to the VE.A. If you believe me or not is your thing at the end, maybe my brain is just screwing with me on the TX87 PCB (the human brain is very adaptive at these very minor differences), but I'm 100% sure that the VE.A had a lot of latency.
Post by: pomk on Tue, 31 January 2017, 07:58:21
Comparing latency is quite trivial. Have a program running on your PC which plays a sound when a key is pressed, then have a microphone next to the keyboard and measure the delay between the key press sound and the sound from the PC program. This allows you to compare different boards with one another. Just keep the distance of the PC sound device (speaker maybe), the keyboard and the microphone the same for all keyboards you wish to compare.I saw one with an Orion PCB.

Now I'm feeling dumb for not coming up with that myself.... I'll definitely do that with all my boards, expect a keyboard science post on /r/mk in the next week (I might repost it in some subforum here aswell). This also seems doable at a meetup, so you can have a lot of different boards to test without having to buy each and every one.
Post by: pomk on Tue, 31 January 2017, 08:41:27
I await with excitement!
Be sure to calculate variance as well as average delay! Especially variance I imagine would make rhytm games incredibly difficult.

Extremely nice looking design. What is the incline? I prefer a flat board or no incline at all, but I would probably sacrifice my wrists for this beauty.

If you're referring to the Dolphin, it will likely be ~$500. Btw hi, I'm going to be running the GB. :)

I saw you were looking for a bottom to your dolphin you already have and didn't have much luck finding it. So you just cut straight to the chase and bring the dolphin to geekhack. I like how you think :thumb:Extremely nice looking design. What is the incline? I prefer a flat board or no incline at all, but I would probably sacrifice my wrists for this beauty.
Also, does anyone have a ballpark figure for how much we can expect to pay? I realize this is like the premium of the premium, but are we talking $400 or more?
If you're referring to the Dolphin, it will likely be ~$500. Btw hi, I'm going to be running the GB. :)
Edit: I will have more information in the coming days regarding both boards, colors, prices, etc. Stay tuned!
Well, I have a bottom, I just happen to have an extra top case and plate...
But yeah, cut to the chase and go straight to the source and convince him that a geekhack gb is needed!
Now that is some mighty fine work.

Comparing latency is quite trivial. Have a program running on your PC which plays a sound when a key is pressed, then have a microphone next to the keyboard and measure the delay between the key press sound and the sound from the PC program. This allows you to compare different boards with one another. Just keep the distance of the PC sound device (speaker maybe), the keyboard and the microphone the same for all keyboards you wish to compare.
The microphone has a similar input delay to that of a keyboard, I don't think it's as trivial as you think.

I imagine it's much like measuring the weight of a liquid -- you have to account for the container. But as long as you use the same container each time you can measure the weights of many different liquids and compare them without worrying about the container's own weight spoiling your measurements.
Likewise, if you use the same microphone for every measurement AND the microphone's own latency can be measured/known, then it's still possible to use it for measuring latency. There are many sources of additional latency in an analog system like what was described. But they are additive, and since we only care about the DIFFERENCE in latency between keyboards the additional systemic latency shouldn't matter.

So actually, this is a total ploy to steal money from all of you. I'm not actually running the GB.
Okay, just kidding. So I'm friends with Kin and Lin and talk with them daily on Kakao. The money is actually going to go straight to Lin, so no worries on that front. This is my first group buy, but I have the support of Kin and Lin behind me - not to mention several friends that are into keebs that will be helping me as well (this sentence has to be a run-on). As far as "large", I'm not sure this qualifies as such. There are going to be 60 total kbds produced, so it won't be too hard to handle. Lin will *probably* be handling shipping or at least a large portion of it, but logistics are still being figured out. Heck, he only decided to do this a few days ago!
Regarding the actual GB itself: Because there are only qty 30 Dolphins and qty 30 Mystery Boards ;) being produced, I think the most fair/logical thing to do is do a raffle. I'll be streaming the drawing on Twitch/somewhere so there are no favoritism accusations or anything like that. Lin and I are currently set on that, but please keep in mind that it's subject to change based on Lin's decisions. He's doing this as a favor to the GH community, so I'm going to do what he wants.
I will update this as soon as possible regarding date, kbds available, colors, etc. Please stay tuned to this thread. Feel free to PM me on GH or Reddit (_BMW_M3_). ((I hate my username, I go by Muzi everywhere else)) However, please refrain from asking questions such as GB date, kbds, colors, pcb, etc etc until I get full details from Lin. He's a busy, busy guy and he's doing us a huge favor! Please be patient with Lin and myself. We're doing the best we can! More details to come soon guys!

Well, I can tell you that there is a mystery keeb that will be in the group buy, but I can't tell you which one yet. All previous Lin boards are being considered for the current and possible future GH GBs. I promise I'll get secondary "mystery kbd" out asap.

30 seems like a good number to me 👍
it's a good number, but only if I'm one of those 30 :D
srsly tho, thanks for making it a raffle. I don't think I would have been able to get one if it was FCFS
I'm really hoping that people who enter the raffle actually want the keyboard instead of entering it just for the sake of entering it

I personally am not a huge fan of raffles because I'm unlucky... HOWEVER. FCFS is not really fair to those in other timezones. People can be caught at work, power goes out, have something to do, etc. I figured as poopy as it is sometimes, a raffle is the most fair way to do it. Plus, I have a feeling that you all might enter both raffles.... both boards are so good. :P

MoreExtremely nice looking design. What is the incline? I prefer a flat board or no incline at all, but I would probably sacrifice my wrists for this beauty.
Also, does anyone have a ballpark figure for how much we can expect to pay? I realize this is like the premium of the premium, but are we talking $400 or more?
If you're referring to the Dolphin, it will likely be ~$500. Btw hi, I'm going to be running the GB. :)
Edit: I will have more information in the coming days regarding both boards, colors, prices, etc. Stay tuned!
Wasn't the price in the original GB last year around $370 or something? Btw, any chance for other boards by Lin too or just these two?
Last group buy was ~$400 I believe. Regarding GB boards, big news coming soon. Hope you guys are ready!
Do you have any experience running large group buys? Not to be rude, but I would find it hard to trust someone with 40 posts and not much time on the forum with $500 of my money! :)
So actually, this is a total ploy to steal money from all of you. I'm not actually running the GB.
Okay, just kidding. So I'm friends with Kin and Lin and talk with them daily on Kakao. The money is actually going to go straight to Lin, so no worries on that front. This is my first group buy, but I have the support of Kin and Lin behind me - not to mention several friends that are into keebs that will be helping me as well (this sentence has to be a run-on). As far as "large", I'm not sure this qualifies as such. There are going to be 60 total kbds produced, so it won't be too hard to handle. Lin will *probably* be handling shipping or at least a large portion of it, but logistics are still being figured out. Heck, he only decided to do this a few days ago!
Regarding the actual GB itself: Because there are only qty 30 Dolphins and qty 30 Mystery Boards ;) being produced, I think the most fair/logical thing to do is do a raffle. I'll be streaming the drawing on Twitch/somewhere so there are no favoritism accusations or anything like that. Lin and I are currently set on that, but please keep in mind that it's subject to change based on Lin's decisions. He's doing this as a favor to the GH community, so I'm going to do what he wants.
I will update this as soon as possible regarding date, kbds available, colors, etc. Please stay tuned to this thread. Feel free to PM me on GH or Reddit (_BMW_M3_). ((I hate my username, I go by Muzi everywhere else)) However, please refrain from asking questions such as GB date, kbds, colors, pcb, etc etc until I get full details from Lin. He's a busy, busy guy and he's doing us a huge favor! Please be patient with Lin and myself. We're doing the best we can! More details to come soon guys!
Thanks for that response! I better go catch a few of the rabbits running around outside for luck!
Did Lin ever mention if he would do a whale GB in the future? We love whales too :)
Well, I can tell you that there is a mystery keeb that will be in the group buy, but I can't tell you which one yet. All previous Lin boards are being considered for the current and possible future GH GBs. I promise I'll get secondary "mystery kbd" out asap.
This is getting more and more interesting!

Hey hey~ I'd love to get in on this sale and ofc this leaves a bit uncertainty given the limited quantity
--- but my question is: will the raffle be sooner rather than later?
There are a lot of TKLs that are about to enter into the GB stage and I (and most likely a handful of others) are trying to plan their purchases accordingly~
any info on that is appreciated ! ;)

You can enter for both, HOWEVER, people that are entering to get a spot and then try to sell their spot later on... We'll deal with that when the time comes.

Honest question for people who would buy an EM.7: Aren't you worried that the QAZ and ]'/ rows being off angle is annoying?
Not sure. Obviously it was designed with some form of ergonomics in mind, so I guess it's up to actual use when preference is found.

I think we're all pretty grateful to have even gotten a chance at these boards. That being said I think theres some stress involved when there are 3 high end customs going on around the same time and this is the only one that is limited. Now I know the timeframe is completely up to you guys but I think what was just said would really help some people. If they happen to lose this raffle at least they could participate in one of the other buys.

The issue is that nothing has been finalized yet - quantity, price, colors, plate types, etc etc. This IC was probably posted a little too early in the process. I personally don't feel comfortable starting a GB with so many unknown factors. The prototype was already delayed.
I truly am sorry for those that are having a difficult time deciding. Unfortunately, there's nothing we can really do about it. There just happened to be a lot of custom GBs happening at the same time as the IC for this came out. I hope you all understand.

I'm having a super hard time deciding lol. I think the hype is just very real on this one. Thanks again for working on this!How soon will the raffle open/close? I'm sure there's a few people that would like to enter Lin's, LZ's, and Mira GBs but can only choose one or two :) (me included)
Currently looking at opening on Feb 22.
That's a shame, not that there is any doubt that you won't get enough entries, but it'd be great for everyone to get exactly what they want without sacrificing.
It's always going to be a bad time for someone. However, the person making the board is who matters most when it comes to time, and that is when Lin can do it!
Can always do the raffle in advance and set the order at a later date ;)
But ultimately the decision is up to Lin and yourself as you said.
I think we're all pretty grateful to have even gotten a chance at these boards. That being said I think theres some stress involved when there are 3 high end customs going on around the same time and this is the only one that is limited. Now I know the timeframe is completely up to you guys but I think what was just said would really help some people. If they happen to lose this raffle at least they could participate in one of the other buys.
The issue is that nothing has been finalized yet - quantity, price, colors, plate types, etc etc. This IC was probably posted a little too early in the process. I personally don't feel comfortable starting a GB with so many unknown factors. The prototype was already delayed.

Also very sad Kokkiri isn't being made :( Looks really unique. Maybe a Whale instead later on?
Post by: _BMW_M3_ on Thu, 02 February 2017, 22:00:09
Why are prototypes being made? Haven't both of the boards been made already before? Or maybe a different manufacturer is being used?

These Dolphins will have the v1 bottom, so he wanted to have them remade just to check and make sure quality is good from manufacturer.

I've got one hypothetical question about the raffle. If Person A and Person B both enter for both the EM.7 and the Dolphin and Person A gets a spot for a Dolphin and Person B gets a spot for a EM.7. However Person A likes the EM.7 more and Person B likes the Dolphin more. Would they be allowed to trade their spots so Person A gets the EM.7 spot and Person B gets the Dolphin spot before it shipped or would they have to privately trade them(and pay twice for shipping, etc)?

Raffle invoices will probably go out about a week after the drawing. If the above case does happen, Person A and Person B need to contact me and I will do what I can to make something like this possible. However, this case does bring up an interesting topic, which you will all see soon!

Not sure on colors yet. He's still working that out. Don't quote me 100% on this, but I'm fairly certain that the winners of the raffle may design their board with the colors they choose (within the given options). So, you'd be able to choose blue top, silver bottom, etc etc. When I hear about colors, I will update you guys :)

Totally agree. They are so unique and nicely done.
Know there aren't a ton running around, but does anyone have impressions of using the EM7? I've never tried an ergo board before, but this one would be awfully tempting (with RNG's blessing). Just like any other layout change- couple of hours working to get used to it and they you're all good??

I like the idea of a geekhack edition group buy, but I'm not sure I like adding more words other than the model name. Is geekhack edition machined into the keyboard or is it an optional badge that you can stick on?
Same here - would prefer to not have any additional messaging beyond the model unless it's customizable?
The renders make it look like Dolphin has it etched and EM7 has a badge.

Maybe it's me but I dislike that Dolphin text but instead prefer a logo like the Whale keyboard (which I really like it for some reason). Any chance to have the option to remove the Dolphin text?

Same here - would prefer to not have any additional messaging beyond the model unless it's customizable?
The renders make it look like Dolphin has it etched and EM7 has a badge.
EM7 is basically carved out so lights below can shine through it. Dolphin as well as geekhack edition are both machined into the top case, I believe. I will get confirmation on this from Lin. I believe Lin would like to keep the geekhack edition to differentiate from other models. I will talk to him and see what we come up with.

Thanks! Branding on the bottom would even be preferred over on top. The design is so clean and having anything besides the model on top would be tough to pay for.

I have to agree with cynviloq. I thought the Dolphin was different because it was a combination of V1, and V2 features.

Since these Geekhack edition boards will be limited and there is a need to visually differentiate them from the previous ones: instead of the "Geekhack edition" text, how about engraving numbers (in the same location) as binary strings (17/30 -> 11000 11110) or having them written in Hangul (which is rather exotic for us international people)? Just throwing out an idea here.
The issue of engraving it into the board is that each board is going to be different, which would require a lot of work and therefore extra $$$. That's why boards typically have tags, I would assume. I like the idea, I'm just doubtful it's viable.
EDIT:
Would you all be happier with the tag saying "G.H. #17" (GH and # of keyboard) and removing the "Geekhack Edition" text?

That would be cool, but isn't geekhack all lower case?

Yes. Personally I think having "G.H." capitalized looks more aesthetically pleasing, but if the people would prefer "g.h." I'm sure the change could be made.

I would say the diferentiate number in the back / bottom case and leave the top same as render ..Since these Geekhack edition boards will be limited and there is a need to visually differentiate them from the previous ones: instead of the "Geekhack edition" text, how about engraving numbers (in the same location) as binary strings (17/30 -> 11000 11110) or having them written in Hangul (which is rather exotic for us international people)?

Everyone shall recognize "geekhack edition" as V2 of Dolphin

The differentiation can't be on the back or bottom of the case because the bottom case for both keyboard is the same. It must be on the top. Btw, v3* ;)

I will enter EM7 raffle for sure. Any hint on.. what time? I'm sure some folks are PST based while some are MST/EST based.. will raffle close once it meets certain number of people or will it be open for a set period of time on 20th and March 1st?
Thank you! :)
Never mind, I re-read your reply.. ! :D
