Have been lurking around and finally made my first purchase on the Redsuns + Drop Red Samurai TKL. The set is beautiful but there was 1 keycap that came disfigured/damaged. That kinda killed my excitement. Put in a ticket for support but have not heard back from them yet. Hope they make this right..
Hello! I'm looking to find a set of MT3 alpha keycaps that match the color of the white "alpha" keys in the LotR Elvish MT3 set. The Mito MT3 Godspeed R2 set looks close, but it's hard to tell from the photos. Has anyone replaced the alpha keys on their Elvish set with roman alphabet keycaps? Thanks in advance!
I was trying to flash my Drop Carina in an attempt to make it have the same lighting as this video: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/0iIzTWxev0g
However, when I tried to flash the board, I used the wrong file by mistake, and that file was for the Drop Shift. A singular orange LED lit up at the front of the board and it became unresponsive. When I plug it into my laptop, it makes a noise to show that the device recognises it, but it doesn't register me pressing the keys, and no lights turn on. Device manager shows three keyboards when my mouse is plugged in, but two when the mouse isn't plugged in (Excluding the laptop's keyboard). I have tried to flash the board again using the reset button on the back of the board, but I'm not sure it's working as there is a layer of foam in the way of the PCB and the case. Is there any way to do some sort of factory reset on this keyboard to reset the firmware?
Many thanks.
P.S I am in the UK
As the title states, i never made an account with drop and was made one after purchasing something here. It's asking me to provide my old password (which i don't have, never made one) to create a new one. usually websites would provide a "Forgot Password" option to recover or change your password but this doesn't. Anyone know whats going on?
How long does it take for Drop orders to start shipping?(regular in stock item)
Based in EU west. Not talking about the time it takes to arrive once it has been sent off, but the time it takes between payment and shipping.
I’ve ordered a set of Mt3 keycaps and I’ve heard a lot of horror stories about drop processing times.
I want to give my wife a Winnie the Pooh keyboard using Drop's base and novelties kits.
I don't know what keyboard to get with it. I want silent keys and smooth, linear action. She is accustomed to Mac keyboards.
Finally, she uses the number pad so I either need a full-sized keyboard (preferred) or I could get a separate keypad. I've looked at the Drop Shift V2, but there seems to be a bit of discontent with this board, so perhaps there is something better.
So, would anyone care to share a recommended keyboard, switches, whatever I need to make this work?
Thanks in advance.
Where to find Fn key on Drop CTRL V2 Mechanical Keyboard PCBA
This is probably a really basic question and I thank you in advance for an answer. I just got the CTRL V2 and used the configurator to make a few changes. To flash the firmware I need to use the Fn key, which is not showing up anywhere on the key mapping in the configurator. In fact, the Fn key is repeatedly referenced in the "Basic" functions of the configurator, but I have no idea where it is. I have gone round and round with DROP Support and they keep pointing me to the configurator, which is no help; it does not list the location of the Fn key. Again, thanks for your help!
The wires on the left channel plug, just before the socket are acting up and I need to replace the cable for my Sennheiser 6XX headphones.
Looking at Amazon, I see actual Sennheiser cables but one of them does not have the removable 1/4 plug (I use a DAC with 1/8" jack), and I would rather not add even more connection unknowns by using an adapter down to 1/4", and the other Sennheiser cable is far too long for my usage (looking for around 2 meters or just a touch longer.
The 6XX have been around for a while and I'm sure I'm not the first to need a replacement cable. I'm actually surprised that Drop doesn't offer them perpetually like they do with the ear pads, which ironically my stock pads are holding up just fine.
I'm not looking for $100+ cables here, just a solid replacement for what the 6XX came with.
Thanks!
Drop CTRL High profile acrylic diffuser replacement
Does anyone able to replace the current acrylic diffuser to a brass or any kind of plate? If yes, can I know where you bought it and some pictures if you may is very much appreciated :)
If none, do DROP even consider creating one? I'll buy in a heartbeat.
Thanks!
I tried to catch 660S but I missed it.
660S (not S2) is another smartphone friendly 600 series headphones besides 58X.
I'd get 66XS instead of 6XX due to better sensitivity.
I just ordered all of the parts for my dream keyboard, (Spr67 blue and DCX Sapphire) except for the switches. I’ve built a few other keyboards before and enjoy thoccy keyboards. However, I love the little bump you get when clicking tactile switches. But I also love deep, thoccy switches. All I’m curious about is a good, thoccy tactile for a reasonable price (below $45 for 70/72). I also would prefer it either pre-lubed or just smooth in general. Any help is greatly appreciated!
When I open the DROP app with my CTRL V2, I see that Layer 0 has MO(1) mapped to the key two right of the spacebar amd Application mapped to the key three right of the spacebar. I want to put MO(1) three right of the spacebar, but I could not find MO(1) in the list of possibilities after successfully unlocking my keyboard. Any hints for me? Does MO(1) have a different name? By the way, MO(1) acts just like the FN key, meaning that I hold it down and press Q, W, etc. to change the RGB lighting.
Is there DROP + EPOS PC39X in development. How soon can we expect it. If not are there any plans to work on it in coming year.
Is there DROP + EPOS PC39X in development. How soon can we expect it. If not are there any plans to work on it in coming year. Would like to have a bit more detail and clarity added to the already good sound-stage and imaging set PC38X. And possibly a bit better Microphone or Detachable and Replaceable one.
Does Alice still live here any more? I'm almost exclusively interested in blank keycaps, preferably cherry profile that are compatible with an Alice board. I'm not at all interested in QWERTY keycaps. I type on a Dvorak board and am transitioning to Colemak. I suppose a dual legend set that has both of those would be acceptable, but I really don't need key legends, and prefer the look of blank keys. Am I in the right place? There don't seem to be many options.
Hey guys, I am interested to buy this barebone, looks very nice, but I have some questions. The firts is about the foam in the barebone, is necessary to buy the kit I found in accesories section? Sounds a bit strange but I think I have read that is necessary.
And the second is about stabs, the same, is it necessary to buy separatly or the barebones includes ones?
Other thing, I was looking for videos of this barebone to listen the sound experience typing with it, but I couldn't find nothing. Is it good experience?
Thanks in advanced
I have been exploring the world of split keyboards but have been having trouble getting used to the alternate designs. I have been using a Drop ALT at home and work for four years, and I love them. I wondered if Drop had ever thought of coming out with a split version of the ALT (or other designs). I would love to learn more. Thank you.
Drop SENSE75 keys occasionally not working when Mac wakes from sleep.
I have an issue with my Drop SENSE75 keys occasionally not working when waking my new Mac Studio from sleep. I never had this problem with my previous iMac. It's a simple fix to unplug and plug in the keyboard to get it working, but I can't figure out why it's happening. It's not a consistent problem—it happens about 1 in every 8-10. Mac Studio is Apple M2 Max running Sonoma 14.5. The keyboard is running the firmware it shipped with.
About six months ago, I got my first OTL DAC and it has been life changing. I have a hard time not using my DAC. I also got some ATH-R70x headphones to go with it. I've run into a problem, though. Lately, I've been getting some really serious feedback from my headphones. I'm a little worried, and want to get some insight into what on earth could be going on with my Audio setup. I'm fine with replacing some of the pieces, but I'd rather know what I need to replace. On the flip side, I'm wondering what could have gone wrong with my setup in six months. 'Cause six months is too short for this problem, right?
Setup:
I bought THX 789 for the massive output of idk 6W/32ohms, but whenever I try to use my Sundara/Modhouse Argon/HD600/Arya V2/...whatever, I cannot reach decent listening levels in terms of db without getting this scratching/hissing noise in the background ... I think it's distortion.
(DAC I use: Geshelli labs - J2, set to max volume)
Settings:
With an XLR output, gain setting level at 2/3 and the volume knob set to 2-4 o'clock, hearing distortion from a 250-350$ THX amp shouldn't be a thing, should it? With somewhat hard to drive headphones, I'm not reaching 70db, but I can already hear this godforsaken noise on all tracks without a constant stream of sound. If you dare to up the volume past 4 o'clock, or past 12 on gain setting 3/3, this noise becomes so loud, it might as well be an additional instrument
Music:
The tracks I usually listen to involve so few instruments, that you don't have a constant stream of sound.
(e.g. Creep - Lena Hall)
I'd love to get some feedback!...
