02 Inside

One key, cut in half.

Every key on KEY-01 is the same stack: a cap on a stem, a spring in a housing, a plate to hold it, a board to read it. Drag to press it and watch where the letter registers.

03 Switches

Three ways to say the same letter.

KEY-01 ships with one of three switches under every cap. Pick one here and the keyboard above changes with it.

Linear

Selected
travel force

Smooth all the way down. Nothing to feel on the way, nothing to hear but the landing.

Tactile

Selected
travel force

A bump where the letter registers. You feel it before you bottom out, so you can stop there.

Clicky

Selected
travel force

The bump, plus a click you can hear from the next desk. Loud on purpose.

04 Reserve
