Would everyone like to see a long term update on this? If so, what features would you like to see covered, or what would you like to see different? Let me know!

you're like the cool uncle that owns cool tech n cars lol

That is kind of freaky how quiet the keyboard is now. I am sure stream and discord friends will appreciate this just as much as I do. Thanks for helping me out Bullets!

This guy is so genuine and he is like the cool sub you would get at school that everyone liked.

Very useful advice and loving the wholesome feels.

My friend spilled soda all over her Drop Alt and was literally going to throw it in the trash, so it became my very first mechanical keyboard. Now after 6 hours of deep-cleaning I have a free keyboard AND a new addiction But really, the vid was so informative and entertaining that I had to comment to show some love, and I can't wait for the stabilizers to come in, and maybe some hearing aids too,

production in this vid is mint!

Great video, love the editing pace, music volume (and track) + the host energy.

love the vibe of the videos the soft lighting is so perfect and your voice is not too loud or quiet you doing a great job with these videos sir you deserve alot more subscribers ^^

Haven’t watched the video yet but that thumbnail sure caught my attention!

It's so crazy how right after I saw your post on reddit of all your switches this video suddenly gets recommended to me right after.

Ahhh, this guy is so wholesome. It's so nice to see someone who still enjoys things like this while still being older. You do an amazing job too, definitely earned my sub.

Just bought my Drop Alt High profile and stumbled upon this video. Love how comprehensive this walkthrough is. Makes me feel more confident about modding my keyboard to that level of greatness.

Thanks for the video, I just got the Standard Alt, and after watching your video, I realized that I completely forgot to clip the stabs. Sounds so much better now! Thanks!

Stupid fish foam and Genuine cherry stabs made a huge difference for my drop alt. Thanks!

Just found this video and cannot emphasize enough the impact that the foam has on the sound and the feel of the keyboard. Its a totally different typing experience and I couldn't be happier!

awesome walkthrough! love my drop alt

"...I get to do it for a friend." That's how you get my sub.

Ok, now you have sold me on Drop Alt and Silent Alpacas. I am buying them and applying the same custom job, so I can enjoy typing like crazy at night while my wife and kids are sleeping. [Typing it on Cherry MX Brown Corsair K70 MK2 at 11:43PM and watching the door anxiously - this thing was supposed to be quiet and is my first mech keyboard and it ain't as silent as they advertise it]

Thank you for the tips!

I think you are my favourite keyboard content creator

Your channel popped up out of the blue! If you keep making this type of content Ill be here when you hit 10k soon! Keep it up!

Coming from Fishcord - this is great! i love the energy and humor, insta subscribe. Keep it up!

Thanks, this video is exactly what I needed. My Stupidfish foam arrived in the mail today and now I can confidently take my Drop Alt apart to fit it. I just need some replacement stabs and pads to finish the upgrade.

I love these videos!

This is such a thorough and informative fix. Thank you!

Nice found your channel today. Keep up the great content

very informative!

Excellent, thanks for this sir!

I really like this video. I recently purchased a Drop Alt and I'm using this video to help me mod the one I got. Thanks!

Great video sir!

Great video!!

Cool video! keep it up!

quality of the video is incredible!

Awesome Video

You sir did a good job on that Drop alt high profile keyboard. A lot of enthusiasts give this board the donkey dung just because of the high price and integrated top plate design. I personally think it's still a viable option to this day because it's well built and with proper modifications this boards can go toe to toe against the most expensive options in terms of sound quality, rigidity, function and looks . Props to you for recommending this board over others despite its short comings.

thanks for the video I fixed my drop today and installed stupid fish foam no more rattle in my space bar

Wow, amazing video my dude! Informative, well spoken, easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions, amazing work. Can't wait to see what else you put out! Edit: Also, please please do one for the Elongate when you get it in and also for the Think6.5 v2 :D

i never comment to give props to a channel but i’m astounded that you don’t have a huge following. your production and commentary is so good :)

How do you have only 1k subs, your content is excellent

Great video and using this as a reference for when I get my Drop Alt in a few days, but until then I NEED the song that starts at 6:42

@stupid Bullet Tech Please do a review on that screwdriver if you don't mind:)

Great video! I'm getting into keyboard modding (thinking about getting a hotswappable) and this was super informative, thanks!

i legit GASPED hearing that silenced spacebar! sooooo clean, the result sound is absolutely amazing

Too quiet for me, but will use this guide regardless! Thx for doing this

that before and after is insane

The new drop foam kits comes punched out already. very awesome video btw.

This is a multi-mil sub count quality video.

Difference is incredible! It's like the keyboard equivalent of that silence you hear when it starts snowing. I'd love to hear what the foam sounds like in the board w/ the holy pandas too

Planning on modding my low-pro Drop Alt next week. Ordered some milky top gat yellows, Durock plate mount stabs, 67g Durock gold springs, switch film, Krytox 205g0 and stab foam stickers (vs band aids). Never knew about stupidfish foam until this vid as I was going to go by Lowe's and buy a sheet of it to cut into shape, but I'm sold on it after that sound test and ordered their Alt kit. All I'm missing now is some dielectric grease for the stabs and I'm hoping to have a completely different keyboard soon! Also coming from some secondhand-bought, unlubed Zealios V2. Was debating whether to throw them in my Keychon, but think I will go a different route on that board with (new) tactile switches that haven't had their legs clipped. GREAT VID!!!

I'm starting to think that Drop intentionally left some improvable features on here to encourage people to get a little DIY with them XD

that sounds amazing reminds me of a topre keyboard

My friend recommended me to your channel and I absolutely have fallen in love with keyboards you can mod! SILENT KEYS is what I’m looking to build and this video is awesome! Thanks so much!

Nice job on this video, what is the music playing? It's so refreshing from the normal lofi that is usually played during keyboard videos!

Great job on the video, and will definitely be looking at the foam for my Drop Ctrl. I'm piece mealing one together from a bare bones unit. One question: You clipped bits of the new stabilizers. I didn't catch why you were clipping things and where you got the new stabilizer setup from. Also a vote for a 'how is the keyboard doing in its new home?' follow on video in the future.

Great Video I did everything you suggested except I went with halo clear switches lubed and gmk laser round 2 keycaps sounds awesome!

suposedly you can repair / mod the stock ALT stabs with some bandaid / medical tape, a clip job, and lube. I just ordered a prebuilt Drop ALT with Kiahua blue switches off ebay (standard low case). If the switches and stabs are at least useable enough that I can type error free, I won't rush into moding it. I have a feeling even the Drop 'junky' stabs are better than what DELL puts on it's keebs! BTW, I LIKE clicky switches, but the hollow sound isn't music to my ears. So I might check out that foam kit.

Awesome video. But can I suggest getting some plastic spudgers for 9:13? It's not safe to use metal tools to separate plastic pieces, you want to use something softer than the plastic parts you're working with.

BTW .. You have good content and a good camera presence. You should be making a lot more videos.

Wow. My head turned like a confused dog when you started typing and it was that quiet

Wow, such a great informative video! Those holy pandas sound soooooo good. I might go and do the same. Is it literally the same mods as Frotsy with just a different switch?

I actually thought my headphones disconnected and the volume turned off when you showed the lubed version of it

Just bought the foam from stupid fish. Wish you had an affiliate link!!

ma man!

you should be using a thicker lube for the stabs, and switches makes a huge impact. i made my alt THOCK with hamaji neo's "is the drop alt still worth $200" video learned ALOT from taeha types to! both very good in the keyboard hobby. Glad to see that you clipped those stabs though! great video (your space bar still sounds like death)

3:27

Way too high production quality for this low of a subscriber count. I would also continue watching if you made this a series! Edit: also where did you get your alpacas? I'm looking for some amd they're sold out everywhere.

Great video! But maybe next time include the process of switch lubing, as you showed the process of lubing the Cherry stabs. Also, do the stabs have a clean bottom out, or do they feel mushy?

I’d say bandaid modding could help the stabs a little more but it sounds more than silent enough for plate mount. Also I stopped using that flourinated grease and just use 205 and dielectric grease on my stabs because that other stuff was starting to dry out and gunk up a bit. Good job on the silence though. I made mx Zilents for my boards and they sound similar for much less money lol.

The board is so quiet that I had to turn my volume up to max 😂

Keyboard customization never stops. It’s like a custom Mustang you keep putting money into, sell at a loss and then pick up another car. Except it’s a silent aluminum keyboard

Link to the switches? I see 5 pin options but the drop pcb only supports 3 pin switches right,

Great review !!there an rgb setting where you can make the lighting all white?

Epic

Can I ask what stabs and kind of switches you used? A Link would be the best. I have the same keyboard and I hate how my stabs rattle

Would the case foam work for the low profile version of the alt?

How do the silenced switches feel compared to linear or tactile switches?

I love the results. This is exactly what i plan on doing with my Drop Ctrl keyboard when it arrives. Quick question for you, I have my keyboard coming with Kailhua Speed Silver (Linear) switches. Will I be able to achieve similar results with these switches or should I start looking at replacing them? Thanks again for the great video!

You did not lubed it, it's gotta be black magic how can this be that quiet? Hahahaha Insane work man!

Hi very informative vid. Question, I have a Hypyerx alloy origins full size keyboard with aqua switches. Do you know if it's possible to mod the stabs and insert foam?

Know where I could find foam for the highprofile ctrl?

Hey there, can you tell me what switches were in the keyboard when you did the sound test before modding?

Oh my goodness, this video was FANTASTIC! Definitely gained a subscriber here. Tried to buy a cup of coffee but PayPal seems to be having issues. Is there a service out there I can pay to do basically this exact same thing? I've been wanting to get one of these or a CTRL and mod it for a while but I have neuralgia in my fingers and I'm afraid I won't be able to do some of the intricate, detailed work myself.

This is amazing, I just purchased this keyboard, They must've fixed the stabilizers, with cherry browns it sounds pretty good, but the spacebar definitely bugs me. Does the foam just make everything quieter? This is my first REAL keyboard that's customizable. I like the sound of it, but that first clip you showed with that thock sounded amazing. That's exactly what i want. It's a little intimidating, but i take computers apart and put them back together for a living, so i think i can handle it. What would you recommend for a little more thock out of my cherry browns? I'm not opposed to swapping them, mostly just want to fix the spacebar. But the foam sounds like a good idea. Gateron black ink v2's are my dream, those sound amazing.

The stabs are good as any other after you lube them. I just spent $10 on a tool set with some china lube and now the keyboard parallels the best I've ever used. You really don't need to buy anything to make most mechanical keyboards perfect as long as the frame is solid and has the features you need.

Is the second alt you showed in the first sound test with the stock stabs?

I recently got a low profile Alt and am considering modding it somewhat to remove ping. However, I've never modded before, so I was thinking of just adding foam. Adding the case foam is clearly very easy, as I just have to remove the bottom cover, but what about plate foam? Is that something I, as a beginner, could do with minimal risk to my keyboard?

I got one of these second hand and it powers on and like 95% of keys work perfectly the 5678 and like the n and couple others do not where would you start on diagnosing what the issue could be thanks

I thought the video was on mute when I saw the before and after

I think it's more fair for a "fixing the drop alt" video idea by simply just modding the stabs, adding foam and lubing the switches to reduce the variables of the comparison between stock and modded. Nonetheless, good video

Mine randomly disconnects I’m wondering if I can troubleshoot this myself

With what reason are there no O-Rings applied to the keycaps? I'm looking forward to do this mod aswell, because i liked how much better it sounds with only applying O rings. Now i can't stop looking at these sound test videos :{

How do you turn these keyboards on/off? I cant find anywhere online how to do this

Got an extra 2u stabilizer I see?

damn your Santa Claus number one in the Keeb Game! can u make mrs Claus Thocccc though!?

On your Holy Panda’s did you lube and film them or just used them stock?

What size is the spacebar stabilizer??

did anyone else's screw thing that came with the kb smell weird? mine smells like some weird chemical mixed with metal

What's the point of buying a "pre-built" keyboard if you're tearing it apart down to its base components?? I'm beginning to think I don't need another rabbit hole to chase down. My stupidity .. _After spending $350 on a KB and another $160 + $120 on a mouse and wireless charging pad nevermind on a tricked out Alder Lake gaming PC with an EVGA RTX 3090 FTW3 Ultra .. the question is does it make you game any better??_ _My wife easily types 200+ WPM on her nearly worn out Corsair KB with Cherry MX Blues._

It's so quiet it doesn't even sound like you're typing on it
