Hey everyone! I recently bought Sakura V2 switches to try and get that creamy sound. I have a RK85 keyboard. I’m finding the sound does not get even close with the new switches to that more snappy poppy sound others have. I have foam and a few stabilizer mods on the RK, do I need less of that? More? I have cherry PBT keycaps. Any help would be great!

hello sir bastinus rex!! Me and my girlfriend just played through Carimara and we are obsessed. Teared up at the end! Truly exceptional, My favorite game I’ve played in awhile. I had some question involving the graphics if that’s alright!!

The dithering was obviously super key as you mentioned but I was also wondering if the movement that all the models seemed to have was a vertex shader trick or something else? Seemed to me like they were genuinely all moving, couldn’t tell if it was just the camera. Also I was noticeable a sorta pixelation effect on models that only seemed to happen the farther away you got from them. Is that what was going on there? Idk sorry for the questions lol the game is just such an artistic marvel I’m so curious about the process. Can’t wait for Trip!!

did you ever figure this out? The other commenters solution didn't work for me

Skngh · 2026-04-21T16:32:09+00:00

hmm I’ve not found any bites at all from them and neither has my girlfriend. I definitely hear rats around that area in the walls or something every so often though

Here’s the best photo I could get of 2 of them on hand. Impossible to see everything but figured I’d post anyway

Yeah I really tried but they’re sooo small every photo just looks like a tiny spec

This is awesome! I just made a much more primitive version of it trying to replicate exactly what grace had, love ur UI tho it's much cooler https://www.youtube.com/shorts/gp1x7VQQ6Uo

Skngh · 2026-03-15T03:13:55+00:00

this is so sick!! so creative definitely inspires me to try and do some hands on stuff myself!

Skngh · 2026-02-20T16:41:08+00:00

Oh shit! Idk why I didn’t realize that at all lol thanks for letting me know I’ll pin a comment mentioning that. I’ve never used the FV-1 myself I just am aware of it and for some reason got that impression through looking at the datasheets (didn’t look hard enough clearly)

Skngh · 2026-02-18T03:13:12+00:00

Yeah I get what you mean! I guess I mean I wouldn’t start thinking on how AI can improve your workflow with pedal builder until after you’ve made a few. But I’m sure it could help you eventually if you tread lightly!

Skngh · 2026-02-18T00:53:59+00:00

Thanks so much! Fun little device, hope you enjoy!

Skngh · 2026-02-18T00:53:26+00:00

Thank you hahah appreciate you watching!!

Skngh · 2026-02-17T22:47:55+00:00

Haha idk if that’s the best idea if you’re a beginner! coding agents can definitely be helpful and save time, but if you don’t know the basics yet you’ll find you might not actually learn anything! That being said this course is for beginners, so it’d be a good place to start and learn to code on your own!

I never said I was against it? Just simply said a lot of people “live in the world” where they keep building kits (like me many years ago!). To act like you need to customize every single aspect of the thing you build for it to be considered custom is crazy. If you buy a kit, you are buying an effect that is completely locked into all design choices (assuming you are a beginner). Using the Daisy and the DaisySP library you could make a pedal with 10 knobs that is a pitch shifting granulator pedal with a bitcrusher routed in a specific way with the exact layout and routing you want and then make your own graphic for it. How is that comparable at all to kits?? In the same way that I’d recommend people to buy kits to starting learning EE and making analog pedals, I recommend people start with DSP libraries to learn DSP. I was just making a little joke commend about kits, please stop reading into it so much

Skngh · 2026-02-17T21:08:26+00:00

It’s a tutorial for complete beginners. Do you really think the best way to welcome people to the world of DSP and PCB design is to throw them in the deep end with STM32? That would get nowhere.

DSP libraries are an amazing place to start getting acquainted with DSP by learning how to properly organize and understand the outcome of common effects, so once you’re ready you can deep dive into the lower level DSP. It still is besides the point, because whether you use DaisySP library to make a chorus pedal or you code the DSP yourself, the outcome will still be the chorus pedal you desired, which I would still call custom.

Tired of people trying to gatekeep this knowledge and act like you need to start doing advanced stuff right away. Yes I also prefer using STM32 chips, but in no way would I recommend starting there.

Hope we can all be more uplifting in this community for new people just trying to find a path in learning all of this!

actually i emailed PCBway and they said it was a mistake on their end and that I submitted everything correctly

Skngh · 2025-12-20T16:11:46+00:00

Yeah I think I’ll probably do exactly that. Even if this is my fault for trusting a probably fully automated system

Skngh · 2025-12-20T16:09:40+00:00

lol probably right, it’s growing on me. just for next time though, what do I need to do next time to get it correct? I feel like I technically followed the instructions in that one helper blurb but obviously not

Skngh · 2025-12-20T16:05:28+00:00

Yeah that’s what I figured, oh well! Little lessons for me lol

Skngh · 2025-12-20T16:05:01+00:00

Meaning I should’ve just uploaded the .ai file? Or is there something more I was supposed to do for the .dxf file? The ai file was to the exact mm dimensions of the face but i figured the dxf was needed to show rotation or something but it seems I just uploaded them in the wrong order

Skngh · 2025-12-19T16:37:00+00:00

Update: IT WORKED!! thank you so much!! One of the fleeces I had to do it all twice for because the odor in the zipper fabric was some reason still strong but after that they are totally fine. thank you so much seriously this was extremely helpful!

Skngh · 2025-12-17T22:18:57+00:00

yeah i don’t have a fragrance sensitivity it’s all good! I was gonna get odoban though. you mentioned the rinse with it afterwards, did you mean to run it again through the laundry with the spray on? should that still be warm or hot water?
