I want to buy A mechanical keyboard with blue outemu switches but I don't how loud the keys will sound.
my sister is in the room next to me and my parents are in the other room next to me and I don't know if the sound of the keyboad will reach them.
in my house I have very thicc stone walls and wooden doors so it could be that the sound doesn't reach them.
Thank you.

So, blue outemu switches are basically just knock off Cherry MX Blues. Cherry Blues are pretty loud by themselves, but it does also depend on the keyboard. I run Cherry MX Reds on my Corsair K65 RGB, and because the keyboard chassis is aluminum it makes quite a bit of noise, although if I had blue switches I may as well be typing on a minefield.

Blues will be loud, and it is quite possible that they will hear you type, especially if you press keys hard like I do. If you get blues and an aluminum keyboard, it will be quite, QUITE loud. If you need the tactile feel, but don't want the noise, try to go for a keyboard with Cherry MX Browns.
