Contour Design offers two different Shuttle devices that are powerful productivity enhancement tools for video and audio editors. The ShuttleXpress is the basic model - and the smaller and more compact of the two. It features 5 programmable buttons as well as highly responsive Shuttle and Jog controls that provide excellent tactile feedback. The ShuttleXpress driver comes pre-configured with settings for over 100 Audio and Video editing applications. In fact, it will detect the active application and automatically switch to the appropriate shortcut profile. Of course the driver can also be used to easily modify or create custom profiles to match individual production demands. Macro capabilities mean that multiple tasks can be assigned to and executed with the press of a single button.

The ShuttleXpress provides multimedia editors with a ergonomic editing interface that will let them better maintain and maximize their productivity. This compact device features a low-profile ambidextrous design that facilitates one-hand access to the five (5) fully programmable buttons, the inner Shuttle dial, and the outer Jog wheel. The inner dial or "shuttle" has a convenient dimple for fingertip control and rotates smoothly and continuously through 360°, with distinct tactile detents. The outer black ring or "jog" is rubberized and spring-loaded. It facilitates fast forward and rewind, and returns to centre immediately upon release. Both the jog and shuttle can be custom configured for many other purposes such as scrolling, volume control, sequencing, even mouse clicks.

If the features and functions of the ShuttleXpress appeal but a greater level of customization is desired the ShuttlePRO V.2 offers an additional 10 programmable buttons.

The X-keys XKE-128 USB Keyboard from PI Engineering is an easily customizable programmable keyboard with eight rows and sixteen columns (128 keys total) for building whatever keyboard layout a user needs, including a switching controller for vMix, Newtek Tricaster, or other popular streaming software. Like similar X-keys products, the XKE-128 model has addressable blue and red backlighting for each key, connects to a computer via a USB connection, and is provided with an SDK for software developers for greater customization and integration with existing hardware. It is also housed in a heavy extruded aluminum case with powder coated finish for added durability.

For those who want to use the XKE-128 mainly as a switching controller, PI Engineering also offers a Video Switcher Kit for vMix, Newtek Tricaster, and other streaming software, so that any user can quickly create their layout of choice. This set is a great complement to the XKE-128 as well as the XKE-124 T-Bar Keyboard.

Using the same proven hardware as the X-keys Programmable Keyboards, the X-keys Matrix Boards connect to the computer through a standard USB port. Your custom switches or keys connect to the board via a standard two row header with 0.1" pin spacing. Programming is done with a standard keyboard and memorized commands are fed to your computer as if they were coming from a standard keyboard. Any sequence or combination of keystrokes may be assigned to any of the 128 (USB) possible switches in the matrix. Any switch, even toggle and rotary switches, can be connected to the matrix.

Programming and reprogramming the switches is simple and fast. The X-keys stores scan codes in its internal memory -- it can be programmed on one computer and moved to another with its programming intact.

The X-keys Pendant Switch from PI Engineering is a rugged, commercial-duty switch primarily designed for light industrial or home workshop applications. This switch is useful in situations where a computer needs to be located a distance away from a working environment yet a few buttons are necessary to start or stop an operation safely with no exposure to potentially dangerous electrical currents.

When bundled with the X-keys USB HD15 Wire Interface and the standard HD15 extension cable, the Pendant Switch can send commands to any program controlled by a computer or tablet. Different models include 4, 6, or 8 buttons. Each button has a tactile feel, giving click feedback even through gloves. Each Pendant Switch also has an attachment pin for easy mounting.

The Advantage Pro was the top-of-the-line model of the first generation of the line of Contoured line of keyboards from Kinesis. Its sleek modern appearance was the result of a double coating of protective clear gloss on top of a metallic silver coating. 'Under the hood' it featured a second memory chip which permitted longer macros and a hidden memory locking switch to prevent accidental or unauthorized programming changes. An option to bundle the Single Action Footswitch accessory at a discounted price was also available.

However, as with all technology, as new operating systems arrived it was found that there were a potential issues with USB 3.0 on Windows 7/8/10 and the venerable Advantage PRO Contoured Keyboard was retired. It was succeed by the second generation Advantage2 Contoured Keyboard and the powerful fully separated Advantage360 and Advantage360 PRO Contoured Keyboards.

Calling all Gamers, Graphic Designers, and Programmers! There is no longer a need to sacrifice performance in pursuit of ergonomics. The Freestyle Edge Gaming Keyboard from Kinesis Gaming integrates proven ergonomics and TenKeyLess design in a mechanical keyboard packed with the latest in custom programmability and performance. The result is a keyboard that offers advanced functionality and high performance while providing the same ergonomic benefits that tens of thousands have enjoyed for years.

Based on the proven ergonomic design of the Freestyle2 and its predecessor, the Freestyle Solo, the Freestyle Edge is an adjustable, separated keyboard that provides a wide range of ergonomic benefits. The Freestyle Edge Gaming Keyboard is divided into two separate modules connected by a linking cable that can be adjusted in length from 12" to 20". This separation allows individuals to position the left and right sides of the keyboard shoulder width apart, allowing the shoulders, elbows, arms and wrists to relax in an anatomically neutral position. This greatly improves posture and blood flow in the upper body, prevents undesirable rotation at the shoulders, and eliminates ulnar deviation at the wrist. For gamers this separation offers the additional advantage of being able to position a mousing device, joystick or other controller centrally located between the keyboard halves. As well, for games which rely primarily on left hand controls the right half can be positioned out of the way to the right and with the left module and mouse or controller being brought in to a more central location.

The symmetrical, compact design (achieved by eliminating the ten key numeric pad) reduces the reach for the mouse for both left- and right-handed individuals. The Freestyle Edge Gaming Keyboard provides access to numbers along the top row. Those who want a stand-alone numeric keyboard have the option of adding either the Mechanical Keypad for PC or the Freestyle2 Keypad for PC and Mac.

The Freestyle Edge Gaming Keyboard is available in four models that each feature different premium Cherry Mechanical keyswitches - Cherry MX Blue, Cherry MX Brown, Cherry MX Red, or Cherry MX Silver. These premium keyswitches are topped by full height concave laser etched keycaps and are equipped with blue backlighting featuring 12 custom lighting modes.

But this is just the beginning! Under the hood the feature rich Freestyle Edge Gaming Keyboard is packed with power. The SmartSet Programming Engine supports on-the-fly remapping of any key and the 4MB onboard memory (the v-Drive) can store up to 9 dual-layer fully programmable layouts for instant access to game or program-specific commands. The left hand module also features a convenient "Game Bank" of 8 programmable keys that gamers, graphic designers or programmers can all employ for triggering macros and custom key commands. Full NKRO mode and 100% Anti-ghosting design means no lost commands, regardless of how fast and furious the action gets. As for speed, a 1MS response time (1000mhz polling) means that the best player wins - not the best hardware (not that the hardware doesn't matter - might as well have that advantage as well). Media controls are easily accessed via the embedded FN layer that remains available regardless of which custom layout you are currently working with. And it doesn't matter the platform used - the Freestyle Edge will fully function with Windows 7-10, Mac OSX v10.6+, Chrome OS, or Linux. Just one full-size USB port will give any gamer everything they have always wanted - and more.

Optional cushioned pads that adhere to the included Palm Supports are availabe for purchase, as well as the Lift Kit (AC910) that facilitates tenting (outward angling) of 5°, 10° and 15° to reduce Wrist and Forearm Pronation. The AC910 Lift Kit requires that the Palm Supports be installed for tenting. If there is a desire to tent the keyboard without palm supports then Freestyle V3 Pro Accessory Kit can be purchased.

Attention à tous les joueurs, graphistes et programmeurs! Il n'y a plus besoin de sacrifier la performance à la recherche de l'ergonomie.

Le clavier Freestyle Edge Gaming Keyboard est complètement divisé en deux modules. Les deux côtés sont reliés par un câble de liaison ajustable en longeur qui peut être ajusté entre 12po à 20po. Cette séparation permet aux utilisateurs de positionner les côtés gauche et droit du clavier au largeur des épaules, permettant aux épaules, aux coudes, aux bras et aux poignets de se détendre dans une position anatomiquement neutre. Cela améliore grandement la posture et la circulation sanguine dans le haut du corps, empêche une rotation indésirable au niveau des épaules et élimine la déviation ulnaire au niveau du poignet. Pour les joueurs, cette séparation offre l'avantage supplémentaire de pouvoir positionner une souris, un joystick ou un autre contrôleur situé au centre entre les deux moitiés du clavier. Également, pour les jeux qui dépendent principalement sur les commandes de la main gauche, le module droite peut être déplacer pour permettre le module gauche aussi que la souris ou le contrôleur d`être mis dans un endroit plus central.

La conception symétrique et compact (obtenu en éliminant le pavé numérique à dix touches) réduit la distance de s`étirer pour chercher la souris pour les utilisateurs gauchers et droitiers. Le clavier Freestyle Edge Gaming Keyboard permet l'accés aux numéros le long de la rangée supérieure. Les utilisateurs qui veulent un pavé numérique séparer ont la possibilité d'ajouter soit Low Force Tactile Numeric Keypad ou le Freestyle2 Keypad for PC and Mac.

Le clavier Freestyle Edge Gaming Keyboard est disponible en trois modèles; le choix entre les différents interrupteurs de qualité supérieure de Cherry Mécaniques; Cherry MX Bleu, Cherry MX Brun ou Cherry MX Rouge. Les clés sont de pleine hauteur aussi que sculptés (y compris, concave). Ils sont gravés au laser et sont équipés d'un rétroéclairage bleu avec 12 modes d'éclairage personnalisés.

Mais ce n'est qu'un début! Le clavier Freestyle Edge Gaming Keyboard est riche en fonctionnalités puissants. Le moteur de programmation SmartSet prend soutient le remappage vite faite de n'importe quelle clé et de la mémoire de 4 MB intégrer dans le clavier (le v-Drive peut mémoriser jusqu'à 9 configurations à double couche entièrement programmables pour un accès instantané aux commandes spécifiques au jeu ou au programme). Un des caractéristiques de la côté gauche du clavier, une "Banque de Jeux/Game Bank" pratique de 8 touches programmables que les joueurs, graphistes ou programmeurs peuvent utiliser pour activer des macros et des commandes de touches personnalisées. Le mode complete de NKRO et la conception 100% anti-fantôme signifient qu'il n'y a pas de commandes perdues, quelle que soit la vitesse et la furie de l'action. En ce qui concerne la vitesse, un temps de réponse de 1MS (1000mhz polling) signifie que le meilleur joueur(euse) gagne - pas le meilleur matériel (pas que le matériel n'a pas d'importance - pourrait aussi bien avoir cet avantage). Les contrôles de média sont facilement accessibles via la couche FN intégrée qui reste disponible quelle que soit la disposition personnalisée avec laquelle vous travaillez actuellement. Et peu importe la plate-forme utilisée, le Freestyle Edge Gaming Keyboard fonctionnera pleinement avec Windows 7-10, MacOSX v10.6 +, Chrome OS ou Linux.
