V60 Matias Mini

[Novus]

Heard good things here and there.
Indoctrinate me into this cult.
Also tell me how great the switches are.

It's good. Pretty crappy keycaps, though. But it's still good.

I enjoy the layout and the switches. The switches are more tactile than Cherry clear or brown IMO. But do note that the stock keycap is thin ABS and if you really need PBT, they are not easy to find (Matias has plan for PBT caps, but they are not available yet).

I love mine. It's great
Im using the clicky switches which are awesome. The board is bit loud when bottoming out which I hoping to Mitigate with better caps. Matias sells caps now by phone call/email; they should be on the site as well soon. KeyboardCo sells Matias caps as well.

Can you record a basic typing session and upload?

I've been thinking hard about getting a V60 with Tactile switches but the only thing I have to go on is my Matias Tactile Pro board and It doesn't seem likely to me that the sound would be the same coming from the smaller body V60.  The Tactile Pro feels great to type on, but it's a big hunk of plastic that also amplifies the click and the clack, so I really curious how a V60 sounds.

Sure, I will do that. it might take me a little while...but I will try to do a side-by-side so you can get a sense.

Thinking of jumping in on the Massdrop group buy.  But with quiet switches.  All my keyboards are clicky at the moment.  Need something for those early morning and late night typing sessions.

I have been in love with this board for a while but now the fact that it's not programmable and it's unlikely to replace the controller starts to bug me

Second v60 mini ping test, followed by typing
