LogicKeyboard makes custom keyboards tailored to a variety of popular video editing software packages, including Davinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, After Effects and many more. This Premiere Pro version of its Astra keyboard is typical of the breed, with color-coded keys for easy function identification.
Each key has a dedicated Premiere Pro shortcut assigned to it, while 5-level key backlighting makes this keyboard usable in any lighting environment. LogicKeyboard has even included a USB 2. The Astra Premiere Pro keyboard is available in separate versions to suit Windows or Mac, so be sure to pick the right model for your rig when buying. This keyboard is more aimed at gamers than creatives, but that's not to say it's out of place in this list.
You can assign macro functions to six dedicated keys - useful for pre-programming your most frequently used editing functions - and the 8MB of onboard memory stores these on the keyboard itself. But what makes this keyboard special are its RGB backlit keys which use Cherry MX mechanical switches - the gold standard in keyboard switches. Mechanical switches are designed to give keyboard keys an especially tactile, precise feel that makes typing much more satisfying than when using a more basic membrane keyboard.
A detachable soft-touch palm rest further ups this board's ergonomic credentials. The K is designed to work well as a typical computer keyboard, connecting to a PC, Mac or Chromebook, but that's just the start.
Thanks to a discreet slot running across the top, a phone or tablet up to a inch iPad pro can sit in the keyboard itself, held upright at just the right angle to create a laptop-style set-up. Connecting devices is achieved via Bluetooth, and up to three devices can be simultaneously connected.
The keyboard can then be used as a much more ergonomic input device for your phone or tablet than trying to type using its touch screen.
One-touch switching between each connected device further enhances the easy of use, while the rounded keys add some design flair. What's more, the K is completely wireless, with a stated 10m range and a 2-year battery life from just a pair of AAA cells. Aesthetics aren't usually a big concern when choosing a new keyboard, but the Roccat Vulcan Aimo may just persuade you otherwise. Its RGB key lighting is displayed to full effect thanks to the minimal key caps that allows the the transparent key switch housings to be visible.
