Review: Great keyboard, really good once you mod it - This keyboard is pretty great stock. Small but hefty, Cherry MX Browns sound decent stock but the stabilizers are buns. I'd recommend Cherry Plate mount stabs, band aid mod and some foam. If you really want to go all out, lube your switches. There are plenty of YouTube tutorials to do this. In terms of the software, yes it's kind of inconvenient. But I don't think changing LEDs is something you do every day (I change LEDs for holidays like Halloween). A lot of people seem to be having trouble so I'm gonna post a short tutorial to make it really easy. 1) Download the applet-mdflash.bin and mdloader_windows.exe from the GitHub(the little card that comes in the box will tell you where to get this). Put both of those downloaded files in a folder called Keyboard Config. 2) Open the folder, right click and create a new text file. Change the extension to .bat. Rename it to whatever you want. 3) Right click your new bat file, click edit and type in this: @echo off set /p ConfigFile=Enter config file path: mdloader_windows.exe --first --download %ConfigFile% --restart pause 4) Go to the Drop keyboard configurator, which will allow you to configure your keyboard. Then compile it and when it asks you where to save it, save it to the Keyboard Configurator folder that you made in step 1. 5) double click your .bat file. It will ask you for the config file you downloaded in step 4. Press Tab until you see that file name. Hit enter and then press the reset button under your keyboard. 6)Your config should be applied. You can save multiple config files, and by running that .bat file you can apply any config in your Keyboard Config folder easily (by pressing Tab to cycle through all the files in the folder), without having to change the file name every time you want to change your config. Hopefully this makes it a bit easier to apply different configs.
Review: RGB's turn off Defective! - I loved the thought of this keyboard but after going through 2 of these, they both were defective. The RGB LED lights do not stay on for more than any hour. After research, this seems to be a common problem amongst this keyboard. The RGBs do need a lot of power but USB 3.0/3.1 is supposed to be sufficient. Hopefully Drop fixes this poor quality control in the future, but for now I am going with the Glorious MMK instead.

## Features

- A MECH KEYS FAVORITE, NOW IN HIGH PROFILE: The Drop ALT High-Profile is just like the original ALT, but now it comes with a tall CNC-aluminum case that covers the switches.
- THICKER, HEAVIER FRAME: The ALT High-Profile is constructed from a large block of anodized aluminum, nearly twice as heavy as the original ALT. The keyboard is heavy enough to stay put when you're locked into an intense FPS match.
- CHERRY MX BROWN RGB SWITCHES: This ALT High-Profile model comes equipped with Cherry MX Brown switches, which have a tactile bump, silent travel, and medium actuation force—great for both typing and gaming.
- HOT-SWAPPABLE SWITCH FUNCTIONALITY: Want to switch your switches? Customize the ALT High-Profile with ease thanks to hot-swappable switch sockets, which allow you to swap switches in seconds—no soldering required.
- OPTIMIZED PER-KEY LIGHTING WITH MILLIONS OF COLORS: The ALT High-Profile is illuminated with fully customizable RGB backlighting and under-lighting. Set your millions of LEDs to a single color or light them up with custom rainbow wave patterns.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good entry or possible endgame for Custom Mechanical Keyboards
*by A***N on September 7, 2020*

What I like: +Hotswap +RGB +Case and keycap quality +USB C +Plate mounted switches, makes for easier upgrades What I did not like: -Awful stabilizers, especially spacebar -Lighting is dim compared to gaming keyboards half the price -Included USB C cable doesn't match the color of the case (Grey cable, Black Case) As a package I think it's a great value compared to customs. Drop and Amazon usually have these readily available if you don't want to spend a crazy amount of money and time for customs.
