Roccat Isku Illuminated Gaming Tastatur
The first keyboard featuring 3 EasyShift[+]™ Zones
Love using loads of macro functions, but wishing the macro keys were perfectly integrated into your standard key layout? Then the ROCCAT™ Isku has made your wishes come true!
The ROCCAT™ Isku – Illuminated Gaming Keyboard is an absolute macro marvel: for the first time ever macro functions can be executed using the standard keys around the WASD zone thanks to EasyShift[+]™ technology. Simple yet extremely effective!
What's more, the ROCCAT™ Isku boasts the brand new ROCCAT™ Talk© function. ROCCAT™ Talk© allows devices to talk to each other, opening up a host of new options to you when executing commands using the mouse and keyboard.
EASYSHIFT[+] GETS ITS KEYBOARD DEBUT
The ROCCAT™ Isku is the first keyboard to feature EasyShift[+]™ technology. Thanks to EasyShift[+]™, you can now assign two functions to the dedicated keys within the three EasyShift[+]™ Zones on the Isku (M1-M5, 20 EasyZone keys, T1-T3). This gives you a total of 36 macro functions all perfectly positioned in and around the WASD zone, making them very easy to reach. Plus, using the five profiles you can directly execute up to 180 macros.
3 THUMBSTER KEYS EXPAND YOUR COMMAND RADIUS
Located beneath the spacebar are three additional, individually programmable macro keys which are easily reached with the thumb – all without the risk of them being pressed accidentally. Among other things, you can cast healing or attack spells with your thumb. Finally, your thumb gets something new to do apart from just hovering around the spacebar waiting to press it.
Another unique function is the ROCCAT™ Timer which allows the time it takes for special items to resporn to be timed to perfection in many games. What's more, Sound Feedback tells you how long there is to go in the form of a countdown. The ROCCAT™ Timer can be executed, paused or stopped to within a fraction of a second.

ENHANCED MACRO LIVE! RECORDING
The integrated Macro Live! Recording button makes in-game macro recording straightforward. After pressing the Macro Live! Recording button, the new Sound Feedback feature guides you step by step through the macro recording process. Up to 500 actions per macro can be quickly and easily programmed to one of the 36 macro keys. It's even possible to edit recorded macros whenever you want using the Macro Manager.
AWARD-WINNING MACRO MANAGER
The highly popular Macro Manager is also supplied so you can record your own macros. Predefined Macro Presets for the top 20 PC games as well as several office apps make it even easier to customize the keyboard – plus the new Loop Function now makes it possible to loop macros up to an incredible 255 times.
IMPROVED PROFILE MANAGEMENT
All the different configurations can be stored in any one of five Game Profiles and linked to games and apps, allowing button configurations, lighting set-ups and DPI settings, etc. to be loaded automatically when a game is started. The Isku offers ultra-fast profile switching – and for a better overview, it features 5 status LEDs which indicate the current profile. A Windows Profile then automatically switches the Isku back to the previously selected default setting as soon as the game is exited. On top of that, there's the unique Sound Feedback feature so you can have profile switches read aloud by the famous ROCCAT™ Voice.
8 MEDIA & HOTKEYS + 12 CONFIGURABLE F-KEYS
Choose from up to 25 functions for each of the 8 media & hotkeys and the 12 configurable F-keys.
INTEGRATED CABLE CHANNELS
Cable channels on the base of the keyboard ensure optimal desktop cable management. Those annoying headset and mouse cables can be easily tidied away using the channels, signaling the end to that all-familiar problem of cable mess.
