Roccat Valo snart på gata...

Vi har nettopp mottatt en pressemelding som sier at det etterlengtede Roccat Valo tastaturet er på tur og snart ute i alle verdens spillbutikker. I den forbindelse har vi mottatt noen nye bilder som vi selvsagt deler med dere.

I tillegg lover Roccat oss et gamingtastatur som kan konfigureres til det uendelige og har over 41 programbare taster som kan blir programmert til over 820 kommandoer eller såkalte makroer. Imponerende er det i alle fall og her er litt mer fra pressemeldingen vi mottok nylig;

The gaming keyboard with a world record breaking number of macro keys.
After an intensive development phase, the time has finally come: ROCCAT™, the Hamburg-based manufacturer of professional gaming accessories, is launching its first keyboard - the ROCCAT™ Valo. The Valo features over 41 additional, individually programmable keys which can be assigned a total of 820 command sequences, so-called ‘macros'. 500 consecutive key presses can be executed at the press of a single key, which can be created both during as well as outside of a game. Furthermore, the user-friendly driver software allows the macros to be stored in five profiles which each comprise four sub-profiles, the ‘layers'. One of the main highlights of the keyboard: a ‘Profile-2-Go' can be saved directly on the keyboard's internal memory. In addition, the Valo stands out from the rest with an easy-to-read display, a USB port, pass-through headphone and microphone sockets as well as blue backlighting of the individual keys. The high quality finish and exhaustive range of features put the ROCCAT™ Valo Max Customization Gaming Keyboard in a class of its own.

Ingame Macro Recording
Macros can be programmed before the start of a game using the Macro Manager that's integrated into the driver software. The ROCCAT™ Valo also allows in-game recording of macros thanks to Macro Live Recording. This is particularly useful especially for long and complex macro sequences. Just hit the Macro Record Button and enter your key sequence. This will then be reeled off as a complete key sequence the next time you need it by pressing the relevant macro key. Macro Pause or Macro Kill, as well as pressing the relevant macro key again, allows you to pause or kill a macro at any time. The easy-to-read LCD takes you step-by-step through the programming and saving process. In addition, the Macro Advanced Editor also allows previously created macros to be edited or supplemented.

Liquid Crystal Display

Along with providing information on macros and profiles, the LCD also displays other stats. Apart from the time and date, you can also view CPU and RAM utilization levels as well as check the status of your e-mail inbox or Skype® messages. The brightness of the display, as well as the keys and logo, can be adjusted in five steps. Furthermore, the Valo comes equipped with a power saving mode which dims or even switches off the lighting after a preset time.

Along with a USB 1.1 port, pass-through headphone and microphone sockets have also been integrated into the non-slip, comfortably grippy casing. What's more, a practical ROCCAT™ Gaming Microphone is also included which can be connected directly to the keyboard.
