Reminder
Hall sensors are sensitive to temperature variations, resulting in potential significant changes to the magnetic field of the keyboard during transportation, influenced by temperature and environmental shifts (imagine shipping from Tasmania to Queensland).
To optimise your typing experience, we recommend promptly upgrading to the latest firmware upon receiving the keyboard. Additionally, manually calibrate the keyboard through ‘Main – Start Calibration’ by gently pressing every key.
*Note: The keyboard auto-calibrates every second. Manual calibration is only needed initially and after resets or updates.
8k Hz Polling Rate
Providing a global 8000Hz polling rate, this enhancement increases operational data sent per second to 8x, ensuring near-zero latency control.
Note: 8000Hz polling rate is available ONLY in Wired USB-C mode (1K Hz 2.4G / 125 Hz Bluetooth)
Roar Mode
Roar Mode enhances your keyboard input speed by ensuring the fastest response from each key after activation. Please note that the backlight will be disabled in Roar Mode to ensure optimised performance. Additionally, Roar Mode may impact the input simulator.
*Click above to set up to four keys for Roar mode activation.
Gamepad Mode
With gamepad mode, the keyboard can be switched between a joystick for racing games and a regular keyboard for typing. MonsGeek M1W V3 HE magnetic switch keyboard offers preset analogue input response curves and customisable settings as game controller.
MonsGeek Snap Key
Snap Key is MonsGeek’s implementation of SOCD, which prioritises the most recent keypress for swift directional changes without releasing previous inputs. This ensures fluid and responsive control, especially in FPS games, where quick reactions and precise movements are crucial.
More Powerful Magnetic Switches V2
Achieve ultra-precise typing with Cream Yellow V2 switches, featuring stronger magnetic flux and adjustable in 0.1mm increments.
Applying for the electromagnetic principle, operated by Hall effect sensing.
Adjustable Actuation Distance
These magnetic switches allow users to adjust every key’s actuation point from 0.1mm to 4.0mm in 0.1mm increments, which offers different kinds of pressing for gaming or typing.
Rapid Trigger (RT)
Rapid Trigger dynamically changes the keys’ actuation and deactivation points. Through the MonsGeek Driver, users can choose “All Buttons” or “Per Button” customisation modes, as well as activate “Non-stop Rapid Trigger” for near-instant key response. This gives FPS gamers a competitive edge in fast-paced gameplay.
For example, when gamers enable RT, they can achieve “Counter-Strafe“ in VALORANT games.
Dynamic Keystrokes (DKS)
Pressing a key can trigger four different key operations.
Depending on your keypress force: a light press triggers action 1, a deeper press activates action 2, and releasing the key also supports a two-stage key setting.
Toggle Key (TGL)
TGL, or Toggle Key, transforms a key into a toggle switch. When you press this switch, you can activate one of two scenarios: either continuously hold down the key/function, or trigger the key/function multiple times at a high frequency.
Mod-Tap
Mod Tap is a design that provides convenience for gaming. It enables the creation of dedicated or dual-functional keys based on key press behaviour.
A single keypress can achieve two functions: holding down the key for one function, and press the key for another.
On-Board Memory
With on-board memory, users can save their preferred settings without keeping the software or drivers on, ensuring easy access to their personalised configurations.
