The Dredgen Project

The Dredgen Project

This KZread channel started with a dare from my wife when we were buying stuff for our work from home workstations. I already had an Anne Pro 2 but I wanted to buy another keyboard. So, my wife (after watching a TV show featuring successful KZreadrs and seeing how much money they make) said that she'll give me USD 400 to spend on anything I want, no questions asked, as long as I make KZread videos on it. The following day I bought two keyboards, two mice and two deskmats and that started this channel. You can still see the bad unboxing videos I did on those :).

On a personal note, me and my wife are full-time accountants. We love travelling and I always take travel videos during our trips and that is what trained me to be decent in capturing and editing videos. The camera that I used on our trips is what I use to shoot these videos.

I play a lot of Destiny and Dredgen is the the first title that I got there. My IGN is actually in the logo though it is a bit tricky to decipher. :)

    personally i didnt use any foam and did the forcebreak mod instead and it seemed to get rid of a lot of the "hollowness" while retaining the sound signature of the board which atleast for me is amazing, also i top mounted it which i ended up liking more than the o ring mount

    Fun fact: split rshift + standard ANSI bottom row gives you a more symmetrical arrow cluster if you want to go the mod-/layer-tap route for arrows (don't ask me how I know)

    I've got two built 3.0s. First one is long poles on gaskets with stock plate. Sound amazing to me, and I actually like the soft typing feel from that plate. Second is built with the pc plate but top mounted (with socks) - this results in a just typing feels similar to the first build. In terms of sound, I actually find the top mount with pc plate to be pretty good, I would say it's fairly resonant but still crisp. I wouldn't say it's hollow at all. I do want to try a pp plate in top mount, and also try the washer mod for top mount.

    right mod cluster arrow keys via tapdance layers is my favorite layout for all of my 60% tsangan layout boards as well. Just makes so much sense. Shame most people don't know about it. For those curious, this is how I do it: Special tab -> 'Any' key in VIA, then input these codes: (change MOD_** key to your liking) MT(MOD_RSFT,KC_UP) MT(MOD_RALT,KC_DOWN) MT(MOD_LGUI,KC_LEFT) MT(MOD_RCTL,KC_RGHT)

  • @TheDredgenProject
    @TheDredgenProject8 ай бұрын

    Thr BD60 sounds and feels better to type on, in my opinion. However the tempo really has a unique look and is a bit heavier so it feels more premium. It will be up to you to decide which you prefer more. I would personally go BD60 but that is a slim edge over the tempo since I personally like the look fo the tempo more.

    Alternatively, I'd suggest doing force break mod to eliminate that hollowness and a bit of reverb coming out of the board -- this way you can also remove the foams to take advantage of the full sound produced by the switch and plate alike. This time it should sound more full. Let me know if this helps if you ever decide to play around with this suggestion! :) Great board btw!

  • @TheDredgenProject
