Oh damn, so you can program your regular letters to do that!!! Nice. I’m JUST starting to get into mechanical keyboards and don’t really know much. I have a Corsair K70 pro RGB with red buttons. It’s nice, but I just can’t get used to typing on it. I’m always hitting two buttons at a time. I have to lift my fingers really high and type. Second issue is the metallic ping. So, I’ve been doing some research to find me something I enjoy and also easy to type on. I love the clickitty clacks (or what they call thock). 😁
If you don’t feel comfortable soldering and building your own I can highly recommend Keychron. Good out the box feel and great build quality. They also have everything from a standard 100% keyboard down to 60%.
I can solder and do all that, but I honestly don’t want to now after watching how the process could be very lengthy. I’ll look into keychrone. Having dedicated media keys is a very important thing to me, if a keyboard doesn’t have it, I won’t even look at it.
Thank you for the recommendation. Do you have any model number in mind that you recommend? I like red switches and 100% size keyboard
They do have them. They are just accessed via a modifier key similar to shift. See here: https://qmk.fm/keyboards/planck/keymap-printout-default-qwerty.pdf

The K5 Pro will probably fit your bill.
