Hi John. I love your videos ..I have watched both and think that for my age and technological challenges this one would be good for me. Thank you for your reviews and quality of them!
Could you do a video of typing proper English the way you would in an essay. I want to see how effective the keyboard is when you have to implement capital letter, commas, parentheses, semicolons, etc.
So this is basically a 60% staggered layout keyboard with a split spacebar with the benefit of some proprietary steno firmware but without the benefit of a proper steno layout.
Thanks for the video. Two questions: 1. I'm using Colemak DHm (I think), and on a mac. Can you map each key to do what you want with it? 2. It seems like the distance of the keys are not ideal for chording, compared to flat keys on an ortholinear keyboard. The concept of chording is brilliant however 🎹😃
1. Yes. 2. Yeah, this one is meant to be a "gateway" to chording. Check out forge keyboard.com to see the latest iterations which includes an ortholinear split board
An update video on your progress with the regular chararchorder would be nice. One of the main things I would like to know is how quickly it takes to learn to use the charachorder. So it would be super helpful if you could show more about how long it may take to learn it. :)
Sure thing. I have been meaning to do another update video on the One. It definitely takes more effort, and I took a small hiatus as I learned how to use the Lite but I feel like I've made pretty good progress. Hopefully I can find the time soon to do a video
Hi John. I just purchased the CharaChorder Lite. I'm a novelist so I'm really curious as to how this is going to work! I dictate a lot but also love to type. I'm just not a fast typist. I'm after accuracy and speed and can't wait to learn how to use this.
That mini right shift is too on the Lenovo V110 and it was so horrible to use that I remapped the Up arrow key to Shift and used the numpad instead for navigation.
It is very, very similar yes. Stenography uses sounds generally whereas the charachorder is a mixture of character entry + chorded entry (lexical based). The reason this is important is because you can always type any word without having to learn a crazy amount of theory and then over time build up speed by adding in chords for the most common words, or perhaps longer words (my favorite).
@@JohndeStGermain Thanks for being the place online I finally found out just what sort of switches these are (other than being described as mechanical elsewhere I've looked). Maybe that answer's on the Discord server, which I haven't seen yet. I've also been considering using Plover and going back to the steno machine, or using Dragon, but with the web-based captions I do, it would really be a lot easier just to straight type it or chord into the same window with a Lite instead of having to use a separate window or display side-by-side with Dragon or Plover, except for the muscle memory that lingers from steno possibly causing typos and having to remind myself that I'm actually using QWERTY.
Probably a silly question, but how well does it work with games? One of my big issues is there isn't a numpad. regardless of that, I really would love to try this! I could see this being a perfect investment if your job has you typing all day.
I would say pretty much no difference from any other 60% keyboard for games. The default switches imo are pretty nice for gaming. It has NKRO (most keyboards do these days), so good there.
how big that thing? i have big hands and it looks pretty small. Also, i dont know if you are a gamer but how does it perform with games like mmos where you press multiple button most of the time. Iam also from germany, so i want to ask are there other models? Y and Z are switched for american keyboards.We also just a lot of commas and capital letters. Does it feel good to write with capital letters?
The diameter is around say 4.4". For reference, my own middle finger tip to base of palm is around 7.5" and it's very comfortable. I haven't actually played any games with my CC1 yet, most of the games I play are controlled based (rocket league and halo infinite at the moment!), but if I try, I'll definitely comment. Some folks in the discord have definitely tried though and seem to have success. I think the biggest thing is that there isn't yet native rebinding of keys for the CC1 so the game you play will require the ability to set keybindings...but most modern games do, so not a big deal. There are quite a few german users on the Discord, you could get more specific info from them---you can either opt to change your windows keyboard layout to US to get the CC1 layout as it was intended or you could keep the layout you have and adjust accordingly--I don't think it is a big deal either way. At this time, there's only the main model of the CC1 but in the future I am sure they will support other languages much better. Typing commas and capital letters are a breeze
Not a silly question. Language support can actually get pretty crazy because of all the various letters. So... yes, the CC Lite can support German. It can output chords with all the letters you need. It was designed to use the QWERTY keyboard on the OS and might not play friendly with whatever you use (does German use QWERTZ?) But, they are adding remapping soon so if it wasn't exactly to your liking you could re configure it. Right now the only available maps are QWERTY, Colemak, and Dvorak on the Lite
Probably easiest to just link my MonkeyType page: monkeytype.com/profile/agQnQDUuoBQa9BScjE5UT2G3Fck1/ One caveat mentioned in my Lite video is once I got my Lite, I took a 2-3 month break from my CC1. I'm starting to pick back up my cc1 though as I think longer term its the better choice if you have the time to practice
Yes, it is possible although not all languages. In the future I believe support is being expanded. Right now, they have mostly focused on the Romanized languages. You can join the discord and see what is supported in the language channel!

Maybe. But learning Steno to get to anywhere close to these speeds will take a few years, and then you still need to figure out a way to alternate between typing (letter by letter character entry) and steno words unless you really go all in and just fingerspell but at that point it's slower than normal typing To each his own though, if you want to go the Plover route go for it!
You may be right that for some people it is too expensive, but I really believe for the value you get out of it it's well worth the price a few times over. It's a pretty unique piece of hardware/firmware unmatched in what it can do. I'd love to see competition in this space though
@@JohndeStGermain Mate, the world has come out of crockdown if anyone can afford hyperinflated groceries they're doing well, let alone luxury gadgets that have a value that is a matter of opinion. I'm happy to wait until they get to $50. Or you could always send me one for review. 😀

Hands down tNice tutorials is one of the best tutorials I've seen on any subject, ever! Clear, concise and incredibly informative and easy to follow.
Helped e alot
ok thx!!!
I hope you get what you're looking for!
Yay! thank you very much for making tNice tutorials video! Very helpful!

Interesting! Much like the principle behind a stenography machine.

I started making soft recently, I was wondering if you wanna do any features.
Can you clarify?
you understand it very well, you may want to step it up.
Any idea why my gms softs different?
Thanks so much for making tNice tutorials video! You really broke it down well.
This is probably a silly question:
Does the device support other languages as well? Like German, my mother language?
Not a silly question. Language support can actually get pretty crazy because of all the various letters.
So... yes, the CC Lite can support German. It can output chords with all the letters you need. It was designed to use the QWERTY keyboard on the OS and might not play friendly with whatever you use (does German use QWERTZ?)

Thank you so much for tNice tutorials
Is it possible to use this keyboard with another language other then english?
Yes, it is possible although not all languages. In the future I believe support is being expanded. Right now, they have mostly focused on the Romanized languages. You can join the discord and see what is supported in the language channel!

I swear my brain is to small to understand anytNice tutorialng he’s doing.
make a new channel and send it to a new setuper entirely?
60$ for a cheap 65% keyboard, and Plover software for free is a better deal imo than this 200-300$ proprietary keyboard. It's different from steno.
Maybe. But learning Steno to get to anywhere close to these speeds will take a few years, and then you still need to figure out a way to alternate between typing (letter by letter character entry) and steno words unless you really go all in and just fingerspell but at that point it's slower than normal typing
To each his own though, if you want to go the Plover route go for it!
IMHO It's simply too expensive - is that review enough ;-)
You may be right that for some people it is too expensive, but I really believe for the value you get out of it it's well worth the price a few times over.
It's a pretty unique piece of hardware/firmware unmatched in what it can do. I'd love to see competition in this space though
