This is probably a dumb question but is there a way to make the key noise quieter? Sometimes it throws me off... ;D

Key noise is just there with any keyboard with a mechanical action. There isn't much that you can do to remove it or reduce it, although felt in certain places can sometimes help.

DynaMat would be a good solution, but I'd think I'd want to buy another harp cover just in case. I'll investigate more into this!
