How much would it cost to make my keyboard backlit?
Sometimes it depends on the model computer. Some keyboards can be replaced for as little as $40, some go up to $100 or better. Unfortunately, since you have a Dell, you may be stuck with a bigger expense, as some Dell computers require a different motherboard for backlight capabilities for the keyboard. You can try calling tech support with this one and see if yours is one that is easily interchangeable

Connecting Yamaha KX8 Keyboard to computer?
According to the spec page for the P-80, it has speakers and an amp built in. Is this not the keyboard you are using?In any event, yes, you need special software within Windows for Windows to recognize this keyboard via USB and actually play sound from it. This would be called "MIDI Sequencer" software, and there are a variety of packages available for all budgets -- from free or open source all the way through very expensive professional-grade packages. Generally, MIDI sequencing software is designed such that you can record and playback your performance, and often "multi-track" record. This would allow you to, say, record the piano track, then lay down a bass track over that, then a guitar track, all from your keyboard. You would then be able to remix the song as needed.

Gaming peripheral products have developed rapidly in recent years, and their functions and types have become more and more abundant. On the other hand, office peripheral products, which are the most frequently encountered in daily life, have not launched new technologies or new design concepts for many years. In the current work and life, the demand for computers and mobile phones is increasing, and typing with a keyboard has gradually become one of the necessary skills for more people. However, due to the problem of the key layout and structural scheme of the traditional keyboard, it will cause soreness, swelling and pain in the wrists, shoulders and other positions after long-term use. Therefore, a keyboard product that can reduce the fatigue of long-term use is very necessary. . Rapoo has recently launched the NK8800 ergonomic wired keyboard, which adopts an ergonomic middle separation scheme. Next, let us see if it is more suitable for daily use.


Packaging & Accessories:





The external packaging of Rapoo NK8800 ergonomic wired keyboard products is relatively large, which continues the consistent packaging style of Rapoo office series. The package with the main color of blue provides information such as the product model, display picture, and feature identification. The accessories are a bit simple, and only a paper manual is provided.


Appearance & Details:







The overall size of the Rapoo NK8800 ergonomic wired keyboard is relatively large, about 480mm×215mm×47mm, which is significantly larger than the conventional keyboard. The keyboard adopts an ergonomic shape, that is, based on the traditional QWERTY keyboard layout, the left and right plates are separated to form a 17° golden angle, allowing users to fully open their shoulders and arms and maintain a natural posture. The middle position of the keyboard is higher, and gradually lowers to both sides, forming two slopes that are not too high, allowing users to naturally tilt their hands when using, and keep the same distance when pressing fingers, which is easier to use than ordinary keyboards. Comfortable and labor-saving. The keyboard adopts a dark gray color scheme as a whole, and the surface is frosted. The texture performance is relatively good. The dark color is more suitable for office style and business style. Coordinated without being obtrusive.




The three indicator lights of the keyboard are designed at the top position separated in the middle, which is very convenient for identification and allows users to easily identify the current status of the keyboard. The upper right corner provides multimedia function buttons, which allow users to control music play/pause, volume addition and subtraction, etc., and can also realize one-key mute, call calculator, favorites and other shortcut operations with the combination of FN keys, which has high practicality. performance and convenience.




The lower part of the keyboard provides a wrist rest, which is integrated with the keyboard and cannot be disassembled. The wrist rest is made of PU leather surface wrapped with memory foam, the surface is delicate and gentle to the touch, and the moderate friction force also makes it more stable for users to place and use, and is not easy to slip. The inner filling is very soft to press, and the slow rebound characteristics can also provide sufficient support for the user's wrist, improving the user's comfort. The wrist rest is consistent with the curve of the keyboard, with smooth lines and natural transitions. The left side of the wrist rest is also slightly wider than the right side, which is consistent with the common input angle, which can provide sufficient support for the user's wrist, reduce the fatigue of long-term use, and improve the comfort of use.




The bottom of the keyboard is relatively flat as a whole, and five rubber anti-skid pads and two folding feet are provided. The former can make the keyboard stable and not easy to slide, and it can also prevent the keyboard from sliding on various material desktops, which will affect the use. The two folding legs can also allow users to find a more suitable input inclination angle, which is very considerate for the different habits of user groups. The tops of the two feet are also equipped with rubber anti-skid pads, which can also ensure the non-slip performance of the keyboard when the feet are opened. The keyboard adopts a wired connection method and supports a plug-and-play drive-free solution. The cable length of about 1.8 meters can also meet the desktop layout requirements of most users.




The Rapoo NK8800 ergonomic wired keyboard adopts a crater-structured silicone membrane structure, which is simple and easy to maintain, and has a certain waterproof effect, and the pressing feel should be more stable. The interior is made of high-quality silicone, which can provide a key life of about 10 million times, and has high durability and long-lasting feel. It can provide easy and soft pressing performance, and the moderate rebound force also makes continuous tapping easier. A balance structure is also added to the large key position, which can provide a better feel performance for the large key position. The keycap is made of ABS material with laser engraving technology, which has a certain anti-wear effect. The surface feels fine and smooth, and the characters are clear and not raised. The hand feel is still very good.


Use test:





In actual use, the noise control of the Rapoo NK8800 ergonomic wired keyboard is very good, and it will not cause interference to others. The ergonomic partition and tilting scheme also make the author no obvious fatigue after a day of use. Feeling, the shoulders and arms are also relatively stretchable, without the usual tension and soreness. The wide hand rest can also provide enough support for the wrist, and there is no obvious fatigue on the wrist and the back of the hand. However, the split scheme of the main key area still needs to get used to it when you first get started, and the enlarged design of some keys can further reduce the user's adaptation time, and the design details are still in place. In normal use after a little adaptation, the input speed and use efficiency can also be kept consistent with daily life, or even slightly exceeded, which is helpful to improve work efficiency and maintain good health.


Summarize:


Although the Rapoo NK8800 ergonomic wired keyboard looks a bit unique in appearance, the separate ergonomic design can reduce the fatigue of the hands, wrists, shoulders and necks under long-term use, and has a significant use effect . As an office-oriented keyboard product, the practical key combination function and the quiet and comfortable tapping experience can better fit the office scene, and can also improve office efficiency to a certain extent. At present, this keyboard has been officially released, and the official price is 299 yuan. Users who like it may wish to pay attention.

Occasionally, I work at home and use a laptop and a monitor as a desktop. I am exhausted from typing, so I need an external keyboard.


Because the office environment at home is shallow and narrow, there are already two wires connected to the monitor, and another wire connected to the previous wired keyboard is messy. In addition, the large keyboard occupies too much space and is cumbersome, and the small numeric keypad is rarely used, so it is unnecessary. So I thought about buying a compact bluetooth keyboard. For example, Logitech has some ultra-thin and compact membrane keyboards similar to Magic Keyboard, which are very good for space and simplicity, but because I have been using mechanical keyboards as a coder and character farmer, I finally chose a Bluetooth wireless compact mechanical keyboard.


I used a ducky tall tea shaft before, which is very cool. I originally wanted to look for traditional mechanical keyboard brands, but found that there are more complete layouts and wired ones, and fewer compact layouts with Bluetooth. The target products are mainly in the three brands of ikbc, Jingzao, and RK, and there are some miscellaneous ones such as ASUS. Considering the appearance, shaft body, performance (Bluetooth module), etc., I chose Jingzao, because I prefer its light gray, compact and simple appearance without edging.


There is a whole set of short switches with 68, 84, and 100 keys. There are green switches, brown switches, and red switches to choose from, as well as RGB and white light options.


Because typing is the main focus and I want to be quieter at home, I use a tea switch; because I am afraid of blindness, I choose white light; because it is more convenient to use F1-12 for office and Internet access, I choose 84 keys. Both K2 and K3 have 84 keys, and K3 is a new design with no frame, so I chose K3.


It's a pity that the packaging design is a bit low


The inner packaging is not high-end, but the things are quite complete


I removed a plastic case from the keyboard package, and it comes with a typec cable, key puller and replacement keycaps for windows/mac


nothing special on the back


Frameless design, looks particularly compact, my favorite point; there are mode and system switches on the back


Replace the brown switch with a windows keycap; the structure under the keycap is very simple, I hope it will be clean and durable.


The size is a little bit larger than the magic keyboard, but the key travel and key size, the feel is definitely much better than the mkb. Mkb multi-machine switching is really painful! ! ! !


1. The first hand is relatively soft, without the refreshing feeling of the red switch (I was a little disappointed at the beginning), but the graininess and strength of the mechanical keyboard are relatively clear and silky (I can only say that it is in line with his positioning. consistent).



2. I feel that the low-axis key stroke is a little shorter than the ordinary one, but it is much longer than the membrane keyboard. If there is no comparison with other mechanical keyboards, or the habit of using mechanical keyboards for a long time, there may be no obvious feeling. Compared with the compromise of size, it is acceptable.


3. The Bluetooth connection is very smooth, and the input feedback does not feel delayed. It is relatively stable and satisfactory. For the time being, I have not experienced the problem that others said that the sleep cannot be woken up (follow-up, try to really sleep, and see the instructions to turn it off)


4. There are many light modes, even a white light has many sports modes, and it is gradual, and the grade is good. But I don't have any demands on the lamp. If I take the lamp away, I am willing to deduct 50 yuan. It is also more convenient to turn off the lights and adjust the lights.


5. Standard-sized arrow keys and page up/down/home/end can quickly meet office needs. praise. If the pursuit of size is more extreme, in fact, I am also very excited about the 64-key one. ikbc has one that doesn't even have arrow keys, and the size is the ultimate, but it affects productivity, so discard it.


6. There is no palm rest, and the keyboard is small, which is a bit tiring for the wrist.


7. There are a lot of very detailed guidelines on function adjustment and device switching, etc., I am impatient to read. Check it out when you use it.


As the appearance and size are the priority, there is no special choice, but I found that the design, quality and cost performance of JD.com's customized products are not bad.


It is a surprise choice, and it can be recommended for those who pursue space like me.


If there are fixed wiring positions and a larger space, it will be more comfortable to buy a wired mechanical keyboard with a complete axis and a complete layout (I use a wired mechanical keyboard in the company)

I have just entered the pit not long ago, facing so many mechanical keyboards on the market, but now the large numbers on the market are all small arrangements, 68 keys, 82 keys, 92 keys, 98 keys, 100 keys, etc., full-size arrangements It is only a very small number. I have seen customized aluminum alloy kits before, and they are basically small in size, but I only like the full configuration. I am not used to the small configuration. After the size of the full-size aluminum alloy mechanical keyboard, I was immediately shocked and reluctantly sold it. The price is really a bit expensive for me.

In terms of feel, I personally think there is no problem. The five-sided heat-sublimated keycap and the paragraph feel of the fast silver switch, but the feel is a metaphysical thing, and I have a personal preference; the texture of the all-aluminum alloy is still incomparable to the plastic keyboard. Yes, it’s very heavy, (although I think it’s very heavy, but I don’t know why, I don’t think it’s more expensive than Amilo’s full-size keyboard? I’m curious what Amilo added to the keyboard to make the keyboard so heavy! ).


The face value is also high, and the Overwatch Angel theme is also quite distinctive (Overwatch players are ecstatic), hunks should use hunk fans! Still rose gold pink!


This official switch is equipped with a total of three switches, all of which are TTC switches, namely ACE switches, fast silver switches and gold powder switches. I have another keyboard with gold powder switches, so I chose the fast silver switches. .


Advantages: All aluminum alloy, rare full-size aluminum alloy keyboard, rose gold macho fan, Overwatch angel theme design (although it is useless for me), full weight, TTC top switch body, full-key hot-swappable, five Sublimation keycaps


Disadvantages: expensive, very expensive
, and then it only supports limited mode. The official statement is that the aluminum alloy will interfere with the wireless connection, so Ruijiang’s aluminum alloy keyboards are basically single-mode; and then the packaging is a bit crude, especially at the same price on the opposite side. For Amilor, the packaging is even more incomparable in terms of refinement.


Summary: For me, the fever can basically be reduced, and I have several special keyboards in my hand. It is really enough for me to use it for ten years!

A while ago on zdm, I saw a post about picking up garbage in a spare parts warehouse in Dongduobao Island. I just planned to change the keyboard, and I happened to go to see a FE 87 RGB version of a certain stone (that is, the full-key hot-swappable version) was in the auction, so I thought about trying it casually, and finally got it with a bid of more than 50


After a few days of waiting for the mail from Guangzhou, the appearance and condition of the hands are still good. But it is obvious that it has been dismantled and repaired, and even a screw on the shell has been replaced. Even if the color is wrong, it has already been twisted.
(Actually, I discovered it later when I took it apart and looked at it myself). I didn't take pictures at the time, and now I don't post pictures until it's been disassembled and repaired. Personally, the texture and feel are better than the old GK50Z, but it is an entry-level low-end keyboard, so don’t ask for too much.




However, when I tested it later, I found that the c key and the v key could not be triggered.
? (Could it be that this was repaired by a programmer after it was worn out?
) Because I heard that the quality of the original axles in their home seems to be not good, I thought the axle was broken, so I took another axle and tried it, but it didn’t work. . . So I thought about sending it back to see if it can be repaired. After all, the spare parts warehouse still has a half-year warranty. Submit the after-sales application, and then there will be a customer service call to communicate with the customary self-operated after-sales service of Dongdong. Probably because people think that it is troublesome to send this thing back and forth for repair, so they directly said that the full amount will be refunded and there is no need to return the product. Naturally, I agreed. So far, it's just a story of a bad keyboard who got paid for nothing. But then I thought, since it was all prostitutes, and I had a soldering iron in hand, I might as well try to repair it, and it wouldn’t hurt if it broke, so I took it apart to see what the problem was. When the pcb is disassembled and turned over, what you see is the traces of water ingress and corrosion, and there are many sediments at the bottom of the shell.

. . . If it wasn't for free whoring, would it be a little bit of a loss if you think about it this way. . . However, there seems to be no problem with the rust on the pcb, just wipe it off.


It has been wiped once by me, but there is still a lot of sediment left in the


I tested the two problematic keys with a multimeter. I thought it was the shaft seat that was welded in the middle and removed a shaft seat, but it was not. . . In the end, it is just roughly judged that there is a problem with the positive direction (just call it that, just know what I mean), but I don't know where the problem is. What I thought at the time was to fly a wire from a nearby key to solve it. The actual test can also be triggered correctly, but it seems that I can’t press it at the same time. So I bought a circle of ok wire and a replacement shaft seat, and when the thing arrived, I flew two wires and finished. (Although there is a Dupont cable on hand, it seems that you can’t use the flying cable if you want to save money, but it’s too hard, so it’s better to buy a coil)


But one day later, I had nothing to do, so I checked it again. It seemed that the problem was with the triode connected to the c and v keys. After specific observation, it was found that the positive pin of the triode was broken. Observe the silk screen a3. Search (you can also search 1ss181), two yuan and five free shipping for 50 pieces, then place an order and wait for the delivery.


The triode where the fault is located. The photo may not be very obvious to see the broken pin, and the rosin around the pad is also dirty.


The next step is the arrival of the goods and welding. I have to say that the relatively large shaft seat is okay, and the small components of this kind of patch are really difficult to solder (if it is solder paste + heat gun, will it be much easier?), we are not specialized in repairing this Yes, the experience is limited to the devices that have tried to solder the jack of the mouse micro-movement before. When there is one pin left, the hand holding the soldering iron is still shaking.

. In the end, although the welding is ugly, it can be used anyway. . . At that time, I thought it was over, but when the shaft was installed, the shaft seat was too close, and the shaft pins directly dried the shaft seat with the pad.
, but fortunately, although the line is pulled out, it is not broken, so you don't need to fly the line
(There seems to be a problem with the logistics of the coil I bought, and it has not arrived for a week.) Be careful to stick the pad back with hot melt adhesive and reinforce the shaft seat. There is no problem in the test, then you're done, and you have successfully obtained a piece of free prostitution. A bad keyboard becomes a working keyboard for nothing


It's not pretty, but it works anyway. Anyway, after installing it, I can't see these places.


In terms of profit, this keyboard should be considered an entry-level one. Even if it is new, it is not very expensive, but it is still second-hand, so it is not worth much at all. But if you can get something for nothing by picking up garbage, and it can be used normally after a little tinkering, it’s okay to be happy

. But I still have to say that picking up trash is risky.
