And programming an analog input for a key will override its original use case, so you’ll need to revert it or flip to a different profile.)īuilding on that feature, Razer’s keyboard also allows gamers to program two distinct functions that would usually require two buttons onto one key, with one firing off at one actuation distance and the other when you fully press the key. (Note that game support for using analog inputs and a mouse simultaneously will vary, but using this feature at all requires the Synapse software. You’ll be able to program the keyboard so that pressing a key down slightly will make you walk slowly in game, while pressing it fully will have you running at a normal clip - just like an analog stick. Perhaps the most appealing feature of these keys is that, instead of being limited to the usual on / off nature of key actuation, they can be programmed with analog inputs to emulate a controller’s joysticks for smoother, variable levels of movement and control. This model’s optical switches support adjustable actuation (the amount of movement required to register a press), allowing for near-endless customization through Razer’s Synapse software. I spent some time playing Overwatch (for work!) with this style of modified controls and did notice fewer accidental abilities and ultimates, which comes in handy for someone with clumsy fingers.Razer’s latest mechanical keyboard, the $250 Huntsman V2 Analog, looks similar to the company’s previous models, but the biggest differences lie in the switches.
Razer marketing manager Ashe Mckeague offers an example from “World of Warcraft.” They keep their movement buttons at 1.5mm for maximum sensitivity, but set ability keys much deeper in order to prevent inadvertently triggering them and possibly losing a battle. This comes in handy for players who may want to keep their movement buttons as light as possible while requiring more effort to push down buttons that trigger more complex actions. Each key has a 3.6mm stroke, but players can set the actuation point anywhere between 1.5mm and 3.6mm on an individual basis if they want. RazerĬustomizability is crucial for PC peripherals, and these switches enable lots of it in the Razer Huntsman V2 Analog. Here you can see the optical sensor that allows for the optical control.
