I'm having trouble downloading the right file from the keyboard configurator on the drop website. When I download the file for my custom layout it comes as a .bin file however, it says I need a .uf2 file to flash the keyboard.
Is there a case that can work for my wired rk61? I been looking for a case that can fit it and I can’t seem to find one. My rk61 has 4 screws and the screws are on the back of the case. I’m looking for an aluminum case and was wondering if drop has one? If there is a custom kind I can get that would be great. I know there is the rk61 pro but I ain’t gonna buy it since it’s like buying a whole new keyboard. If anyone can lmk if their is a aluminum case that can work for my keyboard that would be great!
I received a PC38X yesterday and am having trouble with the mic. I'm pretty sure it is not a software setting or PC hardware issue. I get zero input from the mic, however, if I plug the headphone into the input jack and talk loudly into the earpiece I get a signal.
I've tried the boom in multiple positions. Is there anything I could possibly be missing or does this sound like an issue with either the mic or the cable?
By the way, they sound great and are very comfortable.
Thanks!
Drop CTRL double "t" char and turning off after 3 yrs
Hi all,
I bought a Drop CTRL in 2021. I liked that it was a well-rounded mechanical keyboard that "just worked" without having to do a bunch of customization (I just want a bulletproof keyboard that feels and looks good). It has been a fantastic keyboard, I especially like how heavy it is and the key weight is perfect for me.
However, in the last 8mo it has started double inputting the "t" key and now it randomly will stop inputting anything (but the lights stay on) or it turns off completely (no lights, no input). I normally plug it into a powered hub but I tried plugging it directly into my computer to see if the problem persists and it does.
Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this or where to start diagnosing?
I type all day long so I don't have a lot of ability for down time.
Hey, I just wanted to ask if anyone else is having the same issue I am... This is the second pair in which the right ear cup has began cutting in and out on me, and I'm wondering if anyone has seem something like this happen and has fixed it with a better cable. If so, I'd like to know which cable to pick up. I've only had these a few months, I'm surprised to see this kind of thing happen so quickly.
Hello. Is there a way to get the DROP + THE LORD OF THE RINGS™ BLACK SPEECH KEYBOARD with only the HARDCORE BASE KIT keys? Without the English letters on it. I really want one but it would be awesome if it came with the hardcore kit installed. Thanks in advance!
I ordered some Holy Panda X switches, and I fell in love with them. They are a joy to type on. There's just one problem. The place that I use my keyboard to type the most is obviously at work, which is a problem if I want to use the Holy Panda X in the office around a whole bunch of people. I really don't want to torture my coworkers with the clack of these switches. I'd rather they still liked me. The good news is that, for me, the actuation of the Holy Panda X is the best part. I could take or leave the sound it makes; even if it is fantastic.
Which leads me to my conundrum: is there another "silent" switch that feels similar to the Holy Panda X? Is there a piece I can remove from the Holy Panda X that would allow me to make them silent? Or am I going to have to wait and see if Drop will drop a Silent Holy Panda X for the in-office mech community?
I have a Drop Alt keyboard and I'm having a problem where when my PC goes to sleep the keyboard will wake the system, but will not allow me to type in my password until I unplug it and plug it back in. The keyboard is plugged into a usb hub, which is then plugged into a usb port on my monitor. I've tried re-flashing the keyboard to factory settings, changing the power saving settings in device manager and even tried adjusting the power saving modes in the bios. Has anyone else had this problem or know how to fix I'm stumped.
I want to order the Black Speech Lord of the rings keycaps for my Corsair keyboard. I was wondering if the lettering on each cap is transparent so my RGB lights would still shine through them when it is dark in my room.
*Help* Screw in stabilizers not fitting in Dropshift V2 keyboard
I'm trying to build a mechanical keyboard with screw in stabilizers, I've build some mechanical keyboards with click-in stabilizers, never with screw in.
Somehow one of the pins of the metal top-part collides with the screw in stabilizer of the numpad "enter key". I already tried grinding of a bit of the pin that collides with the stabilizer, but unfortunately I can't make it fit/close properly.
You can see that the pin of the toppart leaves a mark on the bottompart of the stabilizer, see picture 2.
What am I missing?
Using Durock V2 in a Dropshift fullsize V2.
See pictures below, thanks in advance!
Want to build a Clicky Mech Keyboard. Where to begin?
Hello all. Am brand new to the idea of building my own keyboard. Have not a clue where to begin this process. I am a Sim Game enthusiast. American Truck Sim, DCS Flight Sim and goes from there. Need some real help on where to start for making my own Full Size, Clickey Mechanical KB. I want each key to have its own backlighting. Are there keys that are better than others for this? Is there a great spot on site for a person who has never even taken a keyboard apart? Let alone fixed or built one? I would like it to fit my theme of Red and Black.
Yet maybe have the option of changing things up a bit. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you all kindly,
Durazell
HELP PLEASE! I put noise insulation in the keyboard and after that it stopped working, the only sign of life is 5 blinks of orange light.can do something about it? model:DROP ALTv1
I recently got this headset, and wow is it good. My only issue is when certain people talk on discord, I can hear a really high pitched ringing. I fiddled with a bunch of settings, computer audio and discord, and nothing seems to solve the issue. It is primarily if not all in my right ear only. Is there something wrong with my headset, or was that ringing always there I can just hear it cause the headset is THAT good? I haven't had any issues with any other application, though I have yet to test if I can hear the ringing on a different version of discord, say on my xbox instead of my pc. Only other issue I've had is occasional static, but I can't tell if it's from the headset or the show/game/etc.

Does the ALT v2 PCBA support USB-C e-marked cables?
Currently my ALT v1 does not work with e-marked USB-C cables. I was wondering if the v2 PCBA does support these types of cables (thunderbolt 4 cable for example)?
Anyone have that gray hexagon wallpaper from the latest email?
This gray, domed hexagon wallpaper looks like it would be awesome on a curved widescreen! I wonder if anyone has this, or if whoever staged the photo at Drop can chime in?
Sennheiser PC37X randomly goes bad after disconnecting the cable ?
Greetings,
Yesterday I was using my headset like normal with my macbook, just listening to music and on a call with people like usual, and the headset was perfectly fine. The stock wire that came with the headset is extremely long and yesterday it annoyed me very much that it kept getting tangled with itself, so I decided to see if the cable is replaceable. I pulled out the cable from the headset and saw the adapter, and looked online for a replacement. Upon plugging it back in, the audio sounded extremely muffled and washed out. Im not sure what I did wrong to make it mess up like that as I've always taken good care of it, ive had it for about 2 years and its always just been chilling on my desk, but anywho I thought the cable just went bad and ordered a replacement. The replacement came, and the issue is still persistant, so I am not sure what the issue is
I've tried multiple different headsets and the issue is not with the port, and I also tried it with my windows laptop and...
