ROCCAT™ EASY-SHIFT[+]™
DUPLICATE YOUR KEYS WITH EASY-SHIFT[+]™
The innovative ROCCAT™ driver software allows you to quickly and easily re-map
the primary key functions of virtually every key on the keyboard. Enabled by
the Easy-Shift[+]™ key, you can also assign a secondary key function to those
keys – effectively doubling the number of keys you have at your disposal.
Factor in the fact that you can record and store on board over 500 macros, and
you’ve got an insanely customizable keyboard on your hands.
MASTERFUL MACRO CONTROLS
New enhanced Macro Live! technology makes in-game macro recording a joy.
Simply hold down the function key, hit the Macro Live! recording button, and
let the handy sound feedback tool talk you through the quick and easy
recording process, step by step. Thanks to the powerful 2 MB of flash memory,
all of your macros are saved onto the keyboard itself, not the driver – giving
you the freedom to lay down any orders without delay. And you won’t have to
leave your game to do it.
Double up your keys: program a secondary key function in the ROCCAT™ driver
and then enable it by holding down the strategically-placed Easy-Shift[+]™
key.
