Know before you buy
This knob is a standalone rotary encoder device that connects via USB-C. It is designed to function as an external macro pad or controller rather than a replacement knob for an existing keyboard's built-in encoder.
The device is fully programmable using QMK firmware. For an easier, real-time configuration experience, it is also natively compatible with the VIAL configurator, which allows you to remap functions without needing to re-flash the firmware.
Yes, the V2 features a refined 2-piece construction that reduces the overall weight compared to the original. It maintains a wobble-free design to ensure a stable and tactile experience during use.
The body is crafted from CNC-turned aluminum-6061, paired with a premium copper knob. This combination provides a durable, high-quality finish with a distinct aesthetic.
While it is plug-and-play as a standard HID device, you will need to use QMK or VIAL if you wish to customize the knob's inputs or macros. These tools provide the interface necessary to assign specific commands to the rotation and click functions.
