deskthority

The part that threw me off last time, and almost again this time, was that I got a 'hand' icon on my mouse only when hovering the two lines where the typed characters are echoed, while I was expecting to have a clickable area on the keyboard picture itself.

Now having finally been able to try it, I can't say I'm fully convinced it's actually working 'properly'; for instance the sound of the model M, by you described as 'too loud for my liking' comes across softer than the sound of the AEKII.. and the way the samples are played (I think that you've used around 5 at random for the regular keys, and recorded the rest of 2u+ keys by themselves, playing only their single sample every time), the space bar on the DSI Modular for instance only has one sample that is a pretty hard bottom out one, while the rest of the board gets tapped with much less force.. Like that it can't really express the way the board will sound in real life (paired with that I just don't even recognize the AEKII in it's simulator sounds)!
I realize that it would be a lot more work, but I'd say it would increase the usability/applicability of the simulators by quite a large margin, if there would be a setting for typing style; which would give for instance three options (1. bottoming out like there's no tomorrow, die hard rubberdome style; 2. bottoming out smoothly, like hanging back all the way in your chair tilted fully backwards just hanging your hands on the board; 3. only attenuating the switches without bottom out whatsoever, a very well-measured delicate touch).
A lot more work seeing how no3 requires an almost unnatural finesse
and ofcourse since there'll be around three times the samples required.

And on second thought, that would be a shit-ton of work. Especially now I've just payed real close attention to how I type, and it fluctuates between the last two basically, with a harder rattle or clack in between; so recording a pure session would be 'fun'.
Guessing it's just the awkwardness of adjusting the volume on the receiving end (i.e. mine) and tricking ears into believing it's natural for keyboard sounds to emanate from speakers instead of fingertips. Well, coupled ofcourse with the 'always smacking spacebar' (I can barely do that on this grey switch if I'm seriously typing) and hearing your own keyboard underneath the rattle (unless using a headphone).
