You really are doing gods work, THANK YOU. This is my first group buy pre-order and now I know for sure that I will smother all the foam possible in it to get the sound profile I like.

The QK80 comes with two different mounting nubs. One hard one soft. I only have the flex cut zoom75 and it’s softer than both the qk80 mounts even with foam. So if you like soft then zoom75. Can’t speak for the non flex cut which seems to be the better sounding pcb.sound wise it’s going to be your preference, i honestly don’t think one sound better than the other. Plate choice will play a big part also. Alu no flex cut in the Qk was too pingy without foam to me and I assume the same for the zoom75 non flex cut. Force break should fix that in both though.
Really?! Maybe take the pe sheet out and see if you like it. Then tape mod. PE brings the lower frequency up and smooshes the high end down. So there is a lot of mid sounds with PE sheets

I appreciate your comment. I’m glad I could help
Holy Shit when I thought I already watched too many Zoom75 vids, there is always room for one more from Akey!
Thank you thank you. I got mine a little late so my b. Meletrix still wants a full review so we’ll have another on the way lol.
thank you for these, they are immensely helpful
Anytime
respect! 💯
Always comes through, this is so much work we all appreciate you bro!
I got you!
Thank you soooo much for doing this
Thank you for watching
Amazing! Must have taken ages reassembling everything. What are the foams made from?
It takes forever lol. They are made with Poron
Surprised the board sounds the same without any foams and with the case foam added.
Educational ❤
Lol

HONEY WAKE UP, Akeynote just released a new video!
Lmao I appreciate it
Can you clarify what you are referring to as PE foam? Is that the small switch foam? And Case foam is the under PCB foam?
You’re spot on!
awesome work! did you use SS internal weight?
I sure did
How many hours did it take you to make this 1 minute video? I respect your work.
Lmao maybe 4ish just building and recording. Thanks for checking out the channel again!
Does it sound bit muted? picking up alu plate might bring out the sound more i think...
If you think so, then I won’t argue. I think getting the non flex cut pcb would definitely help if you think it’s muted
do u need stand-off screw for no foam ??, my plate seems to be getting lowered
I didn’t do the stand off screws. If your plate is lowering it may be due to the softer plate materials. I haven’t seen this happen to my unit yet
zoom75 or qk80? im mainly interested in sound and feel of the board and id like to hear your opinion
The QK80 comes with two different mounting nubs. One hard one soft. I only have the flex cut zoom75 and it’s softer than both the qk80 mounts even with foam. So if you like soft then zoom75.

@@Akeynote so both have the “creamy” and “marbly” pe foam sound?
@@a15bionic59 yeah with the pe foam.
@@Akeynote thanks mate. Ive decided to get the zoom75 extras
hi! Is it possible to use internal weihgt with case foam ?
Yeah just not the battery foam insert
what would you say was the clackiest for you?
probably just the case foam
Hi. I just got Zoom 75 and I just built it. But the keyboard doesn't sound so thock with U4T and all foams. Should I do the tape mod on it?
Really?! Maybe take the pe sheet out and see if you like it. Then tape mod. PE brings the lower frequency up and smooshes the high end down. So there is a lot of mid sounds with PE sheets
what plate are u using kabayan?
Pc!
Which configuration was your favorite?
What about with no weight?
I’ll do it in the full review 👍🏽
@@Akeynote thanks!
QK75 or Zoom75 for more thocky/creamy sound
QK75 because you can build it plateless. If you plan to use a plate they both can creamy thock w the foams.
@@Akeynote what plate is good for thocky/creamy sound??
Depends on your ears and the switches you use. For me, fr4 or pom. But if you want to use all the foams it doesn’t matter too much
Fr4 IMO
Which one was your favorite sound?
