Gude,
question might sound strange, but I have a relative sound resonance at my desk that makes pretty much everything I have louder.
I have a mechanical keyboard (MX Blue), membrane and an Apple keyboard. My desk top is a 150cm Linnmon from Ikea that was cut to 140cm. My desk is in a corner, the wall on the left and a closet on the right, walls are bare and the desk is full of things.
What I'm particularly asking myself now: When I type on my keyboard (I do not type firmly), it is always extremely loud. But if I put the keyboard e.g. On my laptop and then tap, it is suddenly much quieter.
Does this resonance come from the desk top or does the resonance come from the bare walls? Or a combination of both? If I speak normally there's no sound here.
Frequency high, and no rubber that swallows the sound under the keyboard.
Just put a rubber mat underneath, should be enough.
The walls can also hang something on me.
Now I put my mouse pad under it, but it only helped a little. So is it because of the keyboards or rather the desk top?
The buttons make a noise when you press them down, this spreads out because the frequency should be higher than your voice, it spreads out differently. The desk top should be a smooth surface that then repels the sound, and then it pushes the walls off again, which is why a reverberation effect should arise. Hence the volume. But I'm not an expert. I only deal with music. ^^
That sounds annoying.
As you said, I also believe that it either echoes from the desk top or the walls, or a combination of both.
Maybe a desk pad will help, i.e. One that is slightly larger and thicker than your mouse pad. Or maybe you can put a sound absorber somewhere. Either one for the table:
