ROCCAT™ Talk®
COMBINE DEVICES - FOR UNSTOPPABLE POWER 
ROCCAT™ Talk® lets your compatible ROCCAT™ gaming devices join forces -- for amazing Set Bonus advantages that let you play faster, win more and enjoy a more intense game. 

The ROCCAT™ Isku Illuminated Gaming Keyboard, the Kone XTD and the Kone Pure are the world's first devices to be connected with the ROCCAT™ Talk® protocol -- and they work great together. 

For example, ROCCAT™ Talk® lets you take advantage of our exclusive Easy-Shift[+]™ technology like never before. Now you can use the Easy-Shift[+]™ key on your Isku to activate macros for both the keyboard and mouse – a one-stop short-cut that makes giving orders quicker and easier. 

ROCCAT™ Talk® also lets you use our exclusive Easy-Aim technology to perfection when playing with the Isku and the Kone XTD or Kone Pure. When you need precise marksmanship in sniper mode, just press and hold a single Isku key and Easy-Aim will instantly optimize the DPI setting on your Kone XTD or Kone Pure. This unprecedented two-handed team marksmanship is the most convenient way ever to be the deadliest sniper in the game. 

HUNT YOUR PREY INSTEAD OF HUNTING FOR KEYS The Isku is the only keyboard in the world to feature our groundbreaking Easy-Shift[+]™ technology, which offers you the wonder of 36 easily-customizable macros strategically positioned in 3 spots in the easy-to-find WASD zone. This means you can fire off orders without ever having to re-adjust your hand position – so you won’t have to take your eyes off the screen to look for keys. Simple and ingenious. And because the Easy-Shift[+]™ key works just like the standard shift key, activating your macros is as simple as typing an uppercase letter. The Easy-Shift[+]™ zone gives you an impressive 28 macros keys – including 8 dedicated keys that can be doubly programmed. Plus, the ability to instantly switch between 5 profiles lets you enjoy up to a whopping 180 macros – enough customization to meet even the most demanding warrior’s needs.

Are all your digits in? Now you can give your thumbs something useful to do instead of just hovering over the spacebar. Our ROCCAT scientists put three individually-programmable Thumbster macro keysright below the Isku’s spacebar -- each easily activated with a quick thumb strike. Perfect for casting a lightning-quick healing spell in the middle of a tough fight. Brilliant for a rapid weapon change. Think of your thumbs as two new eager allies. Thumbs up to that.
