The picocalc keyboard is pretty noisy (and somewhat inaccurate). Do you have ideas for reducing the click noise, like putting a piece of cloth between the keypad and the main board?

Earplugs? Loud music? Joking aside, not really

Can’t tell for sure till one is in my hands but maybe custom rubber rings around each dome switch for a ‘slight improvement’. They would have to be the exact right size, thickness and softness for these switches… watch this space ![]()
Did the rubber rings help?
o-rings like that are useful for cherry-style mechanical switches… can’t imagine they’ll do anything for the foil dome pop type switches the picocalc has, at best it’ll prevent you from actuating them at all
I think the keys are pretty quite,
Actually - i’d like to know if there is a way to implement a software click on a received key stroke?
Theoretically yes, but I would not try because it will have negative influence on the performance.
