Best sounding switches and Keycap profile
Hi Everyone, I just bought my first mechanical keyboard (Wooting 80HE) and ordered the Geon Raws HE after watching a few YouTube videos—they sounded great. However, on my keyboard, they sound clacky as hell, and I actually prefer the Lekker 60 V2! They’re much quieter and sound better (in my opinion). Right now, I’m using the PCR case because my Zinc case won’t arrive for another month (mid-March). Do you think that’s why the Geon Raws HE sound so off? I’m considering getting the Jades Pro, but I don’t want to waste more money on switches if it’s not necessary. Should I wait for the Zinc case and then decide? What would you do or recommend for someone who prefers thocky or silent keyboards? I also have a question about keycaps. I’m struggling with typing—I’m used to working all day on an MX Keys S, but with the Wooting keyboard, I keep pressing multiple keys at once. Adjusting has been tough. Can you recommend a keycap profile that might help? Would DSA work, or do you have other...

About 1/3rd of the keys turn the caps lock on and off, but I think F2 actually toggles caps lock. Sheesh... I don't even know where to start with that. Next steps are to:
1) try the usb to ps/2 to usb method.
(still need the other part)
2) My machine is old, anyway... https://wiki.freebsd.org/AppleMacbook
3) If none of that works, I'll be reselling it. But man, I really want to hang onto this sucker. It's about as heavy as a baseball bat (and I actually hit a baseball farther with this keyboard than I do with a bat -- It doubles as a home protection device).
Update: I tried the usb -> ps2 -> usb adapter with no luck. So I rummaged around in the archives and came up with an old ps2 -> AT adapter (and vice versa). It, also didn't work. I even tried a keymapper (Karabiner) with no luck. Seems this is just an OS X incompatible keyboard. I didn't even realize you could do that...
