The Nyquist is a 60% split ortholinear keyboard, that can also be converted easily to a 40% split ortholinear by breaking off the bottom row (by hand). Now featuring hotswap sockets, so just pop in your switches, and you are good to go!

Improvements with Rev. 5 PCBs: Rev. 5 adds support for 2u thumb keys when 4-row layout is used

  • MX Hotswap sockets
  • Option for rotary encoders at top-left and top-right corners (non-hotswappable)
  • Bottom row can optionally be broken off to convert the board into a Levinson layout (4x12 split)
  • 2u thumb key option for 4-row and 5-row mode
  • Per-key RGB LEDs and underglow LEDs pre-installed
  • USB-C port
  • Compatible with MX-style switches only
  • QMK compatible, pre-flashed with VIA support for easy remapping of keys
  • The right half PCB has an optional 4-pin JST port add-on that can be used to reflash the PCB if you decide to break off the main USB-C port (for compatibility with SP50 case). Use JST-SH cable with Micro-USB breakout board or USB-C breakout board if doing this.
  • Comes with left half PCB and right half PCB
  • RP2040 MCU integrated on-board
  • Per-key RGB LEDs for each switch
  • 8 RGB underglow LEDs on each half

Desperately hope this returns

I have built a levinson rev 2 I think as well as a nyquist (converted to levinson layout) and unfortunately my cat just broke mine (don't ask). I was super excited to see the latest revision of this has usb-c connections (trss seems weird) and hot swappable switches (I would pay so much to upgrade my current setup with that).

Maybe it's just my hand but I hate columnar staggered boards. When I rest my fingers on a desk, they sit in a line. I don't get the popularity of boards like the li ly58 or iris or whatever not because they're bad boards but because they feel uncomfortable to use. I've been looking and there doesn't seem to be a single alternative to the nyquist out there. The foldkb is interesting, but what it makes up for in keysets it lacks in uniformity of layout. I just find it really sensible that every button is shaped the same as it aids my forming muscle memory to not have to consider differing sizes of keys. Think about learning to play the piano; it would be weird if the keys were also different sizes.

I hope keebio brings this back because it's an awesome board and perfectly designed. I would think the lack of businesses selling this layout puts it at an advantage, but I haven't seen the sales numbers. In the meantime, I'm going to have to research hand-wiring boards.
