EDIT: I trimmed out the part of the video that talked about north facing switches. It was my complete mistake not to have tried installing the switches the other way (what a dumb move on my part, especially knowing that from how the hall effect switches look, it could be rotated in any direction). Sorry about the mistake!

Thanks a lot for spending your time on a review! You absolutely did it justice by additional lubing it and showing the internals. To help answer some questions: 1. Each graphic on the PCBA under the key is actually from a founder that bought the signature edition when we launched the board. 2. 100 000 000 click lifespan because that's when the machine after months of non-stop pressing is like, well really like fuck me, why won't this just break? 3. You can 180 degree rotate the Lekker switch and install it south facing. Works all the same. Taking note of that transparent strap, that would indeed make it easier 🤩

Electrical engineer here. The reason they have a lot of Vias is because on a four layer board one of your inner layers is the ground plane, and then you usually put a ground plane on top after routing all the wires. You place as many Vias as possible to connect the two ground planes such that you have a really good connection for current to flow and for good capacitance. TLDR lots of Vias = good electrical engineer

Yeah, this 100%. There are very long horizontal and vertical traces on the board, so you really need to keep the return path short. On a side note, outside of component density, four layer is much better for EMI certification. We struggled a lot with that with two layer boards in the past.

This was a pretty good informative video, like really good analysis and conclusion of the rapid key feature

In my experience, I used to use a Cherry Silver K70 and I found that my accuracy on Osu was better with the consistent actuation point, it will take me a long time to learn this Wooting HE keyboard and I will probably need to be more "on it" to hit very good accuracy. I have never been all that good at Osu though so I'm positive there are other players that could preach to this board's features in a few years once they've grown accustomed to it. For CSGO and Valorant though, CRACKED. Absolutely a game changer to be able to stop your inputs faster when rounding corners and stopping to shoot. There was next to no learning period with these games, pretty much just an instant advantage.

Loved this review. You didn't just talk about feel, looks and sound like I've seen in other reviews, but went pretty deep into the technical side as well and made educated guesses of who this might be for and what advantages/disadvantages it (might) have. I personally used cheap bluetooth keyboards from Logitech for a long time (which are suprisingly decent imo lol), but now that I got into rhythm games I was looking for an endgame keyboard and this one just looks too interesting to miss out on. I'm sure that once you master it it's gonna be insanely good.

a rookie mistake, rip heart edit: He got back the heart pog

i think for getting used to rapid trigger, enabling the "continuous mode" advanced rapid trigger setting and then choosing a rapid trigger sensitivity equal to your actuation point can help. if you do this, you can make it so that the distance you have to press down the key is always the same, e.g. if you set your actuation point to 0.8mm and your rapid trigger (downstroke) sensitivity to 0.8mm as well. in contrast, if you had for example 0.4mm rapid trigger sensitivity but 1mm actuation point then you would have to press the key down 1mm the first time but 0.4mm for subsequent presses until you lift the key all the way up, which might be unintuitive. the continuous mode also helps here, for reasons that are hard to explain in a youtube comment.

Thats a really high quality video. Thank you! :)

I love you so much. I finally found a review of this keyboard in a osu/mania point of view🙏

Man I wish they made a TKL. I use the "unused" buttons like break and pause for recording, muting, and such. Perhaps I might try out that full size

you can actually swap the direction of the switch to south facing to support cherry profile

15:41 Finally I got the right explanation about side effects from rapid trigger on mania, that surprisingly makes the gameplay more difficult than I thought

The incredible thing about rapid switch from what I can tell is you can NEVER short stroke the key. ANY impact can trigger it.

boge recently got a wooting keyboard and i thought that it was a thing that came out super recently but everyone seem to know what that was which confused me a little. and than this video got recommended to me and i didn't expect that it was a thing for that long for some reason.

1:31 “don’t waste your time on me you’re already a voice inside my head” rhythm

I sincerely hope that this very video blows up in views. I seethe the custom keyboard community for not adopting real innovation/improvement (EE side and to a degree, ME side). Thanks, Tokaku :).

Bruh second video about this in a day

this board is still on preorder, and razer has been selling one that does this for a while now. it’s not new nor are they the first company to do it.

I think it has that amount of layers because the swithes are actually like motion sensors, where a key can be double function, but to have that double function it means that each key must have double circuits to the main pcb and each function will be controlled in how deep the button actually is. But this is just a theory I don't see any other purpose of wasting resources on having multiple layers, even if the intention was to have a stronger plaque the could just make it thicker...

i know this is unrelated to the video in every way, but whats the best way i can practice having accurate inputs? in other words, sometimes i accidentally let go too soon on a hold note, don't press enough times (single note into hold, and end up missing the hold note), sometimes i press the wrong input and the right input because i can correct fast enough (end up having misses on lets say 4k where I'm supposed to press D but accidentally press F for example) etc. whats the best way i can prevent all of these? like is there a specific song i should play over and over again? i know just generally practicing helps and also getting in longer sessions but its really irritating, especially when I'm trying to practice alone.

Woooooooo that clacky stock? woah

I’m personally still not great at osu but tbh I might get this anyway despite needing more practice before I really need any upgrades to do better. I’m still using an old keyboard that I had before getting my computer and while it works okay as just a regular keyboard, it honestly sucks for games, especially osu. The force needed to actually press down the keys is way too much, so it’s quite difficult to press the keys on time, especially for anything that requires really quick repeated hits

You can replace the case of the board with a tofu 60, and have no compatibility issues

wooting 60he is nice because you can put the pcb into another keyboard case that uses the gh60 tray mount design. I still won't buy one but it's cool I would probably use it with the blade60 case

@@Jono997 I'm suggesting that people test the idea with stuff they already have to get a feel for what wooting rapid trigger might be like (before they spend 170 usd). I'm not telling people to play osu with an analog stick.

I've already modded the crap out of my wooting. 😂 Tfw the mods were more expensive than they keyboard itself. I got lubed lighter springs in these because I play mania and pressing keys with my pinky is hard with default springs even with low actuation force. Rapid trigger actually helps with ln release timings even though I was expecting to help more in jacks. Also make sure to lower your rapid trigger sensitivity when playing long notes. You'll slider break less.

7:57 this is actually what UNIX layout looks like, CTRL and Capslock r switched. and i prefer this because my pinky finger dont have to bend entirely to use ctrl.

It’s 60% to save desk space for gaming in e sports and it gives you much more mousepad space. It honestly the only size I’d buy and I think many other can agree.

Got mines yesterday and I play mania and it’s mostly REALLY good for jacks and vibro. Jacks mostly for ratio like I played a map with 78 perfects and 2k marvelous. And it’s ofc good for vibro lol, I downloaded some vibro maps and got some A and S ranks and I can’t vibro so thanks wooting lol. And I agree with the accuracy with the rapid trigger for stream maps like JS and hs and speed, I noticed that I have a more terrible ratio, more greats but less misses but barely would beat my previous pb’s. It works for certain maps, but stream maps is a no, for me at least

Good thing Kamehameha power contest by DBZ is a thing of the past

oh no now I have to choose which one to lube my cubes or my keyboards!
