Three Modes, Two Hundred Dollars, One Great Keyboard

Thank you to Luminkey for sponsoring this build of their Luminkey80 TKL mechanical keyboard! Please enjoy this in-depth look from unboxing to assembly. I think this would be a great board for a beginner to either build or receive as a complete kit. It has a number of options and creature comforts that lead me to that conclusion alongside a solid build quality and easy assembly. Chapters: 00:00:...

To Relay, with love. Please enjoy this short film I shot on location at Hackney Empire Theater in London for the 10th anniversary celebration for my favorite podcast network: Relay. When I first conceived this film I saw a retrospective piece about the history of the company and how they got from then to now. But, with the interview footage I collected in the edit it was clearly a love letter, ...

The Foundation is Protozoa's FRL TKL XT mechanical keyboard meaning it's basically a TKL.. but it's also missing the function row... and it's got some more keys on the side... just watch the video, it makes sense. FRL, XT or not, has become one of my favorite keyboard layouts and the Foundation with it's unique material options and stunning exterior design loaded with chamfers is one of my favo...

great board
@@zane8868 a favorite of mine to this day!
Do you remember which stabs you used? Also no foam with the CF build right?
@@bren.r TX AP Screw-In, my go-to stabs
Damn you’re quick at replies lol. I just edited my comment - no foam on the carbon fiber build right? Also, did you do the long pole or standard version for the screw in stabs?
@ no foams.
Really enjoyed this video, thank you.
@@zach_ry glad you enjoyed!
Very cool, would love to get something like this in a column stagger layout
@@zach_ry the Red Herring isn’t too dissimilar
@@_IanOfEarth ohhh this looks super interesting, thank you so much!
Thank you for isolating the mic from the desk - way more true to life. So many sound tests pick up the deep thuds when the mics are desk mounted.
As much as sound tests can never truly be representative, as my disclaimer says, that is SUCH an easy step to improve things. Glad it's appreciated.
Hi, sorry I am late on the train here but I love a marbley sound and am very novice in the hobby. Which plate material usually lends itself to that kind of sound profile?
@@drampion typically softer plates net that sound. But there are many factors that go in to how a board sounds, though plate is one of the main drivers.
I'd just put kilmat in there tbh and tapemod the pcb. But that's just me.
@@CimInc definitely could!! I have concerns about the acidity of tape long term being on a PCB, but Kilmat for sure would help shape the sound. I’ve used some in a board before… totally forget which.
The coca cola fit was actually insane, well deserved win
@@mcmaxmcmc SO good
Agreed!
Hey man I am looking to get a black aluminum top and also a PC bottom. Do you think FR4 or POM plate is good for this configuration? Or maybe PC?
@@vagician5743 hey! I am a huge fan of PC, but actually prefer PP (polypropylene) when it’s an option, for its deeper sound. That being said if you prefer something firm it’s hard to miss with FR4. I prefer CF for my hard plates personally but it is typically higher pitched than FR4.
@@_IanOfEarththanks! Also, when using the pp plate, is there a noticeable flex? I like the sound profile of the pp plate but I dont like an excessive flex on my keyboard.
@@vagician5743 definitely flex, fairly minimal when top mounting but still there for sure
A professional podcasters, nice callback Ray 😅 What a beautiful community
mode envoy or tempo?
If HHKB layout works for you the Tempo is a higher quality and more interesting looking board in my opinion, but the Envoy is no slouch and killer for the price.
It's always good day when there's a new Ian build video!

Fantastic interview <3 Great to see Relays journey from the beginning
@@hey_lo so nice to hear that!!
"It's given me everything" 😭💙amazing. Thank you, Relay

Very cool to see this! Cannot believe its been 10 years. It really is like having friends that you’ve been through a long ride with! Keep it going!
@@Sequencer_JY here’s to the next 10! Thanks for watching :)
OMG, Sooo sweet! Incredible work
@@amitaiheyd7171 thank you for watching! :)
Wonderful. And to all you do. And how you do it. Thank you
@@Jiblanche and thank YOU for your kind words and for watching :)
Not only am I thankful for the Relay podcasts being an interest that my brother and I have in common but this live show ended up getting my whole family on our first European vacation ever. We made so many memories. So happy my brother and I got to celebrate Relay in person. ❤
That's SO special 😍 omg
Ian, this is incredible; Relay is everything :sixheart:
:sixheart:
Fencing??? Really??? 🤣🤣🤣
@@ThePenAddictChannel I have thought about Fencing 800% more often since this day than before
I did not expect to be crying. Thank you for this. It's lovely.
@@dcormier aww! Thank you for watching
Beautiful.
@@adrechsel thank you :)
What an amazing video. Thank you for creating such a fantastic tribute, Ian! Thank you to Myke and Stephen for giving us such a wonderful community where we can all feel like we belong ❤
@@QualityScrub beautifully put ❤️
Thank you so much for making this! Such a beautiful film. What a way to celebrate the best podcast family on the internet.
@@brandonruns so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the words 🥰
Just amazing!!! Only better and more to come! Can't wait to watch it happen! 🎉
@@ChrissyAllen-ex6it I cannot wait to see what’s next
Well that was beautiful.
@@heyitsdiggy so glad you enjoyed! :)
Having been in the room that night and getting to relive this whole experience is very touching and seeing all of the hosts and especially Myke and Stephen reflect the feelings that I as a listener have had these past 7 years, really touches my soul. Being podcasters, you're intimately familiar with their voice but seeing the facial expressions as well makes it that bit more visceral. Bravo Ian, Myke, Stephen and the entire Relay team. Grateful to have this gorgeous postcard to a beautiful evening.
@@la_campanella_roll.mp3 such kind and thoughtful words 🥹 thank you for watching!
This is a lovely piece.
Thanks for watching and commenting such a kind thing :)
Well done ❤ So proud.
@@niki_mart thank you for watching! Hard to believe it’s finally here, eh?
What a self back patting for something that is not even important and I am a listener since last 8 years. It's not as big as a deal as everyone is making it seem.
@@pooh6546 sorry you feel that way. Thanks for taking a shot at watching it anyway, and hope the rest of your weekend is good!
Relay has been a big presence in my life and a not insignificant part in who I am and what my life looks like today (especially The Pen Addict, Make Do, and supporting St. Jude every September), so huge congratulations on 10 years and my thanks. 🎉 The amount of times you hear words like friend, family, community, support, passion and so on here speaks to the heart at the core of Relay, great job capturing this Ian.
@@oliveoctopusink now I want to transcribe it and make a word cloud! 😁 Thanks for watching and being part of the community
@@_IanOfEarth I'm sure that would make us all cry again! So much love.
@@lisas6138 it was: #1 relay #2 people #3 family :)
Lovely video. Can’t wait for the next 10 years! And this is the only video I watched on 1,5 speed, so i matches the podcast voice speed 😂.

Here’s to 10 more years of Open RSS 🥂

This is amazing!! Thank you Ian!! Thank you Myke and Stephen!! And everyone who has been a part of Relay!! ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for being part of the movie and part of Relay 🥰

And to 10 20 30 more!
This is amazing
Thank you for watching! I feel like I recognize your profile pic, were you at the show?
@@_IanOfEarth yep, I was around at the relay gatherings
I'm not crying, you're crying ...
I AM crying 😭
Incredible work ❤
Thanks, babe 😍
This is beautiful 💙😭 (turns out seeing multiple previous versions does not stop me from being in tears at the end)
Infinite shoutouts to you Kate for all of your help and love for this community.

Beautiful film, friend! Loved this!
I'm so happy you enjoyed it and thank you for watching!

@MykeHurley I was *just* about holding it together (with great amounts of self-control, because I was also doing a thing while watching where still being able to see was kinda useful) until you came along at 14:08, and your response, on top of the rest of the video before that, just ended me 🥹😭💗

Loool Tommy at his most disagreeable.
@@slumphomunculus never know what you’re going to get!
I wish that I knew of a company that made a keyboard that looked like this. I love the look of this keyboard.
@@daynerhoades right? The huge symmetrical bezels are great. There are a pretty large number of U80’s out there so definitely check on Mech Market and EBay!
Nice video! I was looking for PC bottom combos so this was perfect. also can i know where you got your cable?
@@daviddaniel3772 thanks for watching! The cable in the sound tests I assume? That is the GMK Jamon 2 cable from Space.
Good review although in terms of budget wise i would recommend the dcx but typing on my gmk wob they look so good and crisp.
@@Twkeys DCX is definitely the more budget friendly option and since fixing the shift mould updates I would be less critical overall.
