Clicky Keyboard Envy: A Funny Laptop Keyboard
I often feel there are many similarities between music and the work I do on a computer. One such similarity is my concern over the tools I use. I figure if you’re going to use something often, you should take the time to really play around with your options, and get the best out there, because the difference in price can be surprisingly negligible.
Having spent time both working on computers and making music without having a lot of money to spare, I’ve often settled—and gotten quite comfortable—with subpar gear. My first computer was an Atari 400, a computer which had a “membrane keyboard” which was basically like typing on an iPad, but worse. My first musical keyboard was no better.
In fact, when I think about it, even the gear I’m using now feels rather anemic. Modern Apple keyboards or HP Laptop Keyboard are fashionable and functional, but force your fingers to do all the work. They’re like these small keyboards that only cover half the range of a piano, and have a flat feeling, leaving you wondering when you’ve actually struck the note.
There are clearly things missing from these keyboards… namely, keys.
So the “pro” option, for most folks, is to get one with all the keys.
But there’s still something missing. They don’t feel right. Luckily, this is a solved problem, and has been for some time. The “holy grail” of keyboards like the HP Pavilion DV6-6000 Keyboard .
Now I can’t speak to the piano—I might need a bigger house—but you can buy piano-like keyboards to get a similar feel. As for the computer keyboard, the Model M Keyboard was manufactured for many years, and can be readily found on eBay. Since they’re so durable, it’s probably still a fairly good investment.
