[IC] GMK CYL VPE
« on: Mon, 27 July 2026, 11:55:46 »


Inspired by the Grass Valley VPE series keyboards made by Cherry from the 80s/90 for video editing.My design combines the best elements from three keyboards the  VPE 151, 141 and Sabre Edit making it more cohesive. Stock GMK colours are used and features side print!

Instant buy. Amazing work!
One piece of thought: would you consider including a capslock or an enter with a different color in the base kit? Both of them being red now makes R3 a little bit too symmetric, kind of inconsistent with the asymmetric vibe of this set.

IC Form filled,
would also like to see an intl. kit made. If the extended f-row dosent make it into the base, i would love to see 12 or so relegendables in maybe 4 different colours thrown in to the extended f-row kit.

Looks good.

I'd be interested in both the regular and f-row extension kits, but I think putting either in the base would unnecessarily bloat the price. If anything, numpad should go in base.

Only other thing is to reconsider the colours of the 4-key 40% keys in the base kit. On most 40% boards 'esc' is R2 (adjacent to Q), 'tab' is R3 (adjacent to A), and 'backspace' is R2 (adjacent to P). Backspace and esc could probably go either way but keeping the tab in the light beige would look weird as it would be one row down from the rest of the light beige keys.
