Increase productivity with multimedia keyboard macros and shortcuts.

Multimedia keyboards are not new to the PC market. They are extremely popular among all categories of computer users. But are you getting everything your new keyboard has to offer?

There are various models of multimedia keyboards, each having its unique keys and features. Unfortunately, these keyboards often require installation of proprietary software in order to make use of all the extra keys and features. Bundled software varies in quality and bulkiness, and usually covers just the basics.

Put your music at your fingertips by controlling your favorite music player with your keyboard's dedicated multimedia keys. Make your movie freeze when you hit the 'Pause' button on your keyboard. Insert and format a complex table into a spreadsheet with a single key press. Save time by automating complex tasks with pre-recorded keyboard macros.
