[IC] GMK 'Miami Nights'

[retainerbox]

Any chance of offering the CMY kit as a full mod kit? I'd much prefer to lose the extra shift keys and arrows and have a full set, the Electric Bluegaloo set has all the mods and is only $42 so paying more money for a half kit just doesn't get me excited.

I would love this!

[heedpantsnow]

So I don't see it in the list but are there 1.25x Fn caps in the CMYKv2 kit?  From the pics it looks like there are.

If it does then I say don't change a thing about that kit. Sure, there are keys I don't care about in there, but seems to hit maximum compatibility.

[heedpantsnow]

Hmmm well that edit came out interesting...

[Latin00032]

So I guess more people would prefer to have it as shown in the OP then for $115?

I'm liking how it is in the OP.

[hrinfinity]

That CMYK v2 is gorgeous! I was super bummed out about missing the previous group buy of PBT dyesubs with RGB legends on Shift / Ctrl / Alt, but I think this set is gonna match my keyboard even better

Although I primarily use TKL, I'm with the others about selling a complete set for $115.

I'm definitely in for the keyset and CMYK v2!
I think I'm a full blown GMK addict now..

[nathanrosspowell]

I prefer it that way, yea . My only sticking point is going to be wallet recovery from all the GMK that has been on sale already this year 

[Karura]

Ivan, you got my full support for this buy, if we can somehow avoid mixed profiles, but the numpad is still a bother to my OCD if it remains R0 and the CMYK v2 stuff gives us R1.

Does GMK have 1.25 R0?

I don't mind a full R0 bottom row, but yeah, I'd really prefer to not mix profiles.

[shower_king]

yeah ,i love 115$ and CYMK V2。 I absolutely join in. As for me ,the question is to buy one or two? this depends on recovery speed of my wallet and when the group start?
look forward to waiting for a period after TA and hyper fuse

[LechnerDE]

I think that with GMK, you need to have the numpad in the base set or risk it not running at all and having all your full size people drop out at the last minute.

THIS!

[IvanIvanovich]

CMYK v2, will remain a partial mod set. With 2 sets of shifts you can potentially get 2-3 keyboards out of this depending on configurations, and you also get choice of arrow only or arrow and shift so 'everyone' can be happy. So for example if you have an 87/104 ANSI key and a 101 ANSI key you could hit both... or if you had an ISO 88/105, and an ISO 102 or 105 1800 you could hit both and etc, etc. I hope that makes some more sense now?

This is exactly what I would like to see.

Loving your extra CMYK as well BUT I have one question for you Ivan how can these keys be seen at night when typing in front of an lcd only lit space?

So far from your key-set colour-way the ONLY colour that will be easily seen is the beautiful YELLOW on BLACK which is perfect, but the other colours like Blue, Purple/red and Grey will be nearly invisible.  Are you worried that most won't be able to see these legends in sub-lighted rooms?

Had to mention this because some people like to type at night and not during the day, being that we are eternal vampires  .

+1 Kinda why my Broset is still in a bag : /

Do you guys really look at the caps while typing?

I don't need the legends - I just like a nice color scheme if I glance at my board

I occasionally need to check legends on the secondary symbols on the number row, for the keys I don't use very often. It's something you get used to very quickly when you don't have legends to look at though.

The only other time I use legends is when I'm typing one-handed for whatever reason -- ex. when talking on the phone

I would guess we do since we brought it up.

Sorry, I didn't mean to offend anyone - I just simply took it for granted that members of a keyboard enthusiast forum touch type   

Anyway, I don't think those colors will be unreadable - I imagine it to look quite like the code keys

I touch type, however, I like my legends to be clear and crisp as an aesthetic aspect of the board.

No biggie.

If it's like the code key, then it should be fine.
The alphas on the broset are almost non-existent in dim light situations.

My issue is having to readjust to typing after/during gaming.
Call me weird, but my hand is tilted a bit more while gaming than it is during typing, so I glance down to see where i ended up ><'

[heedpantsnow]

I don't need to see the kb nor the legends. Colored caps are pretty much all vanity for me.

If you're really a vampire, can't you see in the dark?

[fknraiden]

Very interested

[ccarlitos2]

Take my money now. Please and thank you. Also I want the tenkeyless and mod packs if you need to know

[the big aristotle]

I am most definitely in.

[Elrick]

I am most definitely in.

Same here, with every Ivan Group Buy his key-sets are always unique and remain quite delectable  .

[DanielT]

I love this colorway, and it's actualy smart. The cyan legends on the alphas are visible even in low light, I've noticed that on the Code and Joker keys. The modifiers are less important, I mean I know wher my shift control and Enter are But for the alphas is good to have something visible and cyan is perfect.

I have some complains about the A profile, I had the chance to test it and it's not so good. But it's not a deal  breaker
So I hope people will join this GB when it starts because I will. After playing with all sorts of profiles and colorways I must say dark Cherry profile are my favorite.

[IvanIvanovich]

I'll be kicking this into buy status as soon as I get the last change requests back from GMK.

Ivan's aesthetic is always ahead of us. ️

[n7]

So soon 

How long will it be open for? I won't have money for a few weeks.

THis will start as well as classic beige set..i both wanna buy , but after buying two sets each for TA and Hyperfuse, i have no money and too little time for my wallet to recovering. please make the GB launch more time to give me some time for wallet recovering .thank you

Money can always be found, it isn't difficult nor hard to amass any amount when it comes to purchasing your dreams here on Geekhack  .

Well that's probably me out for those too then, I don't really do partial sets on any of my boards. Should still be in for the WoB patch kit depending on price and keys available.

[archer]

Those yellow legends look great! Any chance we could get yellow Ctrl and Alt keys added to the mod pack?  either way, I'm in!

[pichu23]

Quick question, will the black on the CMYK V2 the same as the ones on the mods on the Dolch set you ran earlier?
Mock for both seems a little different.

[ideus]

The duplicated shifts keys in the modifiers set are redundant, they could be replaced with the missing keys for a full modifiers set: Tab, Caps lock, Stepped Caps Lock, Enter; thus, keeping the cost it may be a more useful option for people that are not getting the full set.

[baldgye]

I'll be kicking this into buy status as soon as I get the last change requests back from GMK.

looking forward to it buddie

[TBone]

Definitely in Ivan. I'd say do a full set. Maybe try on massdrop since TA was so successful? I was hesitant at first, but it looks like it really works better...so far.

Dolch doesn't have black, it's a dark grey.

I know the alpha's are grey but ok. Can I know what colour code Dolch's mods are then?

The color code for Dolch was previously discuss in this thread, you could check 3 or 4 pages back.

Ty. Found it. =)
Think N9 looks better than CR though as the base colour  )

[ryptide11]

Always a fan of your GB's. Will get in this as well.

[choc]

wow, by seeing those side legends, I once thought this was a triple shot GMK.

[shower_king]

could you please wait for a period? For example, after two weeks when the classis beige start, and then the deadline come to an end two weeks later?
After HP and TA, the classic beige almost start right now. as you know, it's you ,Ivan‘s GB that I absolutely join in no matter what happen.
The main reason is i like this set so much that my wallet couldn't balance between this one and classis beige, just because i wanna buy this set for two ,one for use ,the other one for back up. thank you very much and your great work for making the GB happen will be much appreciated.
