FAQs

Do I need to install any software to use the Media Composer shortcuts?

No, the shortcuts are printed directly on the keys and function as standard inputs. No software or driver installation is required.

Can I use this keyboard if I don't use Avid Media Composer?

Yes, it functions as a standard QWERTY keyboard. All standard letters, numbers, and symbols are clearly labeled.

Why are there two USB cables?

The grey cable powers the keyboard itself, while the black cable provides power and data transfer for the integrated USB 3.0 hub.

Is this keyboard compatible with Mac?

This specific model (LKB-MCOM4-A2PC-UK) is designed for PC; while some keys may register, the layout is optimized for Windows-based Avid workflows.

How many brightness levels does the backlight have?

The keyboard features five distinct light levels which can be adjusted to suit your ambient lighting.

Troubleshooting

Backlighting is not turning on

Ensure the grey USB connector is securely plugged into a powered USB port.

The USB hub on the back is not recognizing devices

Verify that the secondary black USB cable is connected to a functioning USB 3.0 port on your computer.

Keyboard keys are not responding

Unplug both USB cables, wait five seconds, and reconnect the grey cable first.
