I just did this mod with a v2 of the Q1. Two layers of masking tape on the bottom half that didn’t have the silicone. I also took out one of the two foam pieces. It was so easy and it made a massive difference. No metal, more flex, more open sound. Yeah there is silicone but tbh it’s too thin and it really needs that masking tape. Rice cloud did a video on this recently as well.

Regardless, it's still a fantastic mod for any two-piece keyboard, especially for older KR top mounts!

I found that Transparent Sticker film (used to print out stickers with transparent background) -- is the best force break mod material so far. -- It is sticky enough to stay in place where you put them... but does not spread out adhesive like an Electrical Tape. In terms of thickness, it's somewhere between Masking Tape and Electrical Tape (in fact, you can choose the thickness of your liking too -- it varies per GSM). Therefore, 1 layer is all you need... The material is great because its "grippy" and has the ability to absorb force -- which is the main goal. In addition, it's more aesthetically pleasing compared to other tapes, because it's transparent - so it's like not there :) hth

This is a really nice idea, instead of tape I used the sticky pad stuff that the KBD pad feet came in and made little dampeners.

I did this mod without knowing that it's an actual mod people do. My reason for doing it is so for the gaskets to not get too compressed when the case is screwed back in. However, instead of using layers of tape near the screw holes, I used the spare washers from screw-in stabilizers (much easier if the washers you have are adhesive). Did this mod on a D65 and KBD67 Lite.

Quality video, I learned quite a bit about mods and their application scenarios. I personally would have to agree with you that I like the idea of having that original unique sound that my keys/switches make and I love that the break mod preserves those qualities while alleviating the distracting sounds of the case. However, I'm still learning so ill be testing all the mods for myself when my kq6 comes in the mail - will let you know how it goes. Do you have any recommendations on some high-quality linears that I wouldn't have to lube up myself? I'm looking for a nice clean sound and stable keys to preserve that premium feel, I was thinking maybe box ink pinks, but I'm unsure how ill feel about their lower profile.

When I did the tape mod the ping disappeared, but it made my Q3 Pro loud and poppy. After adding a thicker foam case dampener, it took away the flex of the keyboard. I settled for the force break mod. It worked well minimizing the ping (about 95%) of the Q3 Pro without altering its characteristics. I used 2 layers of masking tape as the material. Hoping to remove the remaining 5% ping, I'm waiting for a set of heavy linear switch (KiiBoom Topaz) that will be replacing the Keychron Pro Banana that the keyboard came with. Thank you for this great mod tip!

I dont really hear the difference. My goal here is to mute my old k70 board as much as possible with what i have on hand. Wondering if maybe clear silicone might work better just to reduce vibrations. Or if id wanna consider trying to fill that air gap with paper tape or foam potentially. Might even wanna just try it as is since i havent seen all my screw locations where this is viable yet if at all. If i do i might wanna try a couple or a few layers of the electrical tape so i can still screw it in snug tho. I dont trust loose screws to do anything right.

The mods have the audible characteristics you describe, but for _completely_ different reasons. Tape does not "stop" the sound and turn it back around. Foam does not "bring frequencies to the middle" and you are definitely still affected by the case either way. If any of this was the case, recording studios would be incredibly cheap to build and they would look completely different.

I think the only keyboard kit that actually utilizes this mod straight out of the box (at least from what I've seen) is the Sun68. It's a bit different though because it includes poron for the screw holes but the concept seems to be the same.

Yeah the sun68 had it with poron. Pretty interesting. Thought it was a meme but it’s effective.

Has anyone tried putting tape on the bottom of the plate?

@AndyVNguyen 2 жыл бұрын
it would only help for the top mount screw points. my server has definitely used the force break mod to screw in their brass weights so what you're saying is technically viable

I was wondering this as well. I currently have shelf liner in mine but thinking about taking it out and trying this instead. Did you end up trying it? Edit: In case anyone is curious, I ended up trying it and it definitely improved the sound

yeah the bottom of the case. if i recall correctly i had to silicone pour mine for it to sound decent. force break would do a lot for that board though so you may not need to go as far as silicone pouring
