Re: Weytec HK2000 with big problem

These controllers are VERY hard to find on their own, I had to buy a whole second keyboard with the controller box just to be able to use my MK06, took nearly a year to get one for a good price too.

FLS are difficult to convert as most of them speak a proprietary protocol; meaning that usually a controller replacement is the way to go, which is what I ended up doing. I traced out ...

Re: 1990 Chicago Tribune article on keyboards interviewing Key Tronic, Northgate and IBM managers

He found a company in Japan that made key switches with the sound and feel he liked. The feel is like IBM`s, but the click is louder. Hmm, I wonder what company this could be. 8-) Great article, interesting to see the small enter was a deliberate choice and that clicky vs silent rivalries were just...
