it's nearly perfect, except it is not a wireless keyboard :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye_:

You want a wireless keyboard?
peepo clap for the tech innovation but it too ex for me
For that price making it wireless isn't an choice, it's a must.
not a very good opponent Wooting two - Full-size analog keyboard would like it just a more game controller for setting keys
beautiful but one joystic and 1 gamepad is few
flying in space where the spaceship is parked perpendicular to the hangar can not be set it would like 2 joystick and 1 pedals then it would be to use the full analog keyboard

Gr8 but would be better if wireless
My issue with the keyboard is Synapse won't import any Chroma profiles and apply lighting effect to the KEYS. Every profile imported only applies the chroma effects to the outer ring of lights and not the keys themselves.

They need to fix this bug ASAP.
That’s annoying, but I’d rather take a cosmetic bug than the keyboard itself not working.
*** POTENTIAL FIX TO STUCK KEYS ***

I have gone through two Huntsman V2 Analogs due to keys acting as if they’re being held down, when they’re not. If you remove the wrist rest from they keyboard, supposedly this resolves the issue. I have done so and haven’t had further issues but would like to see if anyone else has similar results.

Damn, the wallet will feel the heat on this one.
Seems the same with Blackwidow, but the smalll differences are the RGB lights on the cushion and it is also detachable 0.o. Definitely gonna buy it someday 😛

Nice

The adjustable actuation tho 👀
How do you get this to work with synapse?
When can we just buy the wrist wrest?
To those of you who experiencing the sticky key issue:
Are all your keys affected by this or only WASD? I've noticed it only on WASD and I wonder if it could be related to the "WASD to controller joystick" feature even though it's disabled.

Hello Everyone!

Hope you all good. I got my Razer Huntsman V2 Analog few weeks ago and it's lovely keyboard, however one thing drives me crazy with it. I have sticky WASD keys when Synapse is enabled and it's very upset thing. Yesterday I got died on Sapphiron 40 man WoW classic raid just because my keyboard decided she want to move right without my will:big_grin_:. When I told the reason why my character left safe spot behind ice cube - whole 39 people laugh from me and my great keyboard for 270 euros price.

The biggest question I have - Is it any way to have updated Firmware which will fix this sticky keys issue? Will I be able to remain Synapse enabled while I'm playing games, or I have to disable Synapse all the time and when next time I will forget to do so - I gonna die again and wipe the raid? If not - what is the point of Synapse software at all?

Thank you much for your time and reply.:wink_:


I have the same issue !

Ill try your potential fix thanks for the tips!
Same issues with phantom / sticky keys…

Razer has asked that I exchange it, I have TWICE now. I am on my third and all three of them have the same issue. However, if you exit Synapse the issues go away completely.
Did the new Synapse update fix the HUNTSMAN v2 ANALOG issue with sticking keys?

I saw the update but haven't seen any results on the forums.
I just got an email with a return label for this issue.
My support ticket says issue with W key (up) because that is what stuck in the video I sent them.
It has happened to me multiple times.. mostly with A and D.
WASD are the only keys that I use for moving around in games, so I am pretty sure it is not a switch issue.

Has anyone mailed their keyboard back for this issue and gotten results?

I thought there might be a chance they changed hardware, because I bought mine back when it first came out. I don't use WASD a ton for games, but that is what frustrates me.. I don't use it a ton, but still have the issue.

I really don't want to ship my keyboard in for something that is not even a hardware issue.

Last question, is there a way to talk to support on the phone?

Sounds like a lot of trouble for a disappointing end result. I was lucky mine acted up 3 times in the first 2 days and took it back. Sounds like its too late to get your refund. It is definitely a software issue. Disabling the software would completely defeat the purpose of owning this kb, so that is not a fix at all. I'll keep watching this thread in hopes that the issue gets resolved but I'm skeptical at this point.
Just got mine yesterday. I believe the issue you guys are talking about is solely software related. Have you tried tweaking the actuation points? With the default setting, 1.5mm, I mistype a lot. I have set mine to 3.0mm in my work profile and the issue is gone. I did never like Razer Synapse... here is what I do about it: I set up my gear, save the profiles to the onboard memory and quit Synapse for good. I don't think it's a hardware issue. My previous keyboard was the very first Blackwidow Ultimate, back from 2010 and it is still rock solid and that's a great reason why I chose another Razer keyboard to replace it.

Let me change subject a little... is there a thread where people share their game profile analog settings? If not, whe should start one. What do you guys think?
i also got sticky/ghosting key. Anyone have problems with not blocking windows key in game mode after swapping profiles? I will try to clarify. if you press fn + f10, the windows key is disabled as it should. But if you switch the profile and switch to the old profile on which the game mode was activated, then the windows key will work, although the indication on the keyboard will show that the game mode is working and it will also be indicated that the game mode is working in synapse (if you put a checkmark opposite the blocking alt + tab / alt + f4, they will be blocked as expected and even after changing profiles, but the lock of the windows button disappears after changing the profile). Also, if during this bug you click on the checkbox with alt + tab / alt + f4, then the game mode starts working as it should on the current profile, but after switching profiles, the windows key stops blocking in game mode.
when the synapse is off and when using the internal memory, the windows key is blocked after pressing fn + f10, but after switching profiles, the game mode indication is turned on on the keyboard, and the windows key is not locked.
Rev-Up-
Same issues with the phantom/sticky keys, where it stays pressed until you press the button again.

It's 100% software-related because this doesn't happen with Synapse closed. I have also tried 3 different Huntsman v2's and they all have the same issue on my PC. I did do a full reinstall of Synapse (followed the entire tutorial made by Razer) and I even made a new account that I used to login to after I reinstalled Synapse to confirm it's not account related like some users mentioned.

I did do some troubleshooting on my own by tweaking with the settings in Synapse. It always felt like it happened at random moments (like once every 15-30 minutes), so I enabled Turbo mode by going into the settings for each individual WASD key and chose:

Keyboard Function -> Key Recording -> Rebind key to W -> Enable Turbo -> Speed (press/sec) 20.

I repeated the steps above for all WASD keys (you can do this for any other keys that you use alot in games).

Guess what, instead of the sticky issue happening once every 15-30 minutes, it now happens every 1-2 minutes.

This probably isn't very hopeful to anyone affected by this, but I haven't seen anyone else mention this. Now we kinda know that this issue happens a percentage of the times that Synapse and/or the PC/Windows registers a keystroke, instead of a user physically pressing the key. This "trick" should also make it somewhat easier for other users and Razer to troubleshoot this, since you can count on this issue happening every few minutes.

My next steps will be trying the turbo mode trick on a different PC to see if it also happens there, and if it doesn't, reinstall Windows on my main PC to see if that changes anything.

If anyone else is willing and able to try the Turbo mode trick aswell, please let me know if the same happens to you.

Thanks.

I think you may be onto something, it happened to me as well. Brand new PC btw, just built it.

Anyway, at this point I feel we are beta testing for Razer, so damn sad lol. Today they updated Synapse, every time I see an update I fool myself into thinking that the problem may be gone, but nope, it happened in the first 10 mins of gameplay. Never been so disappointed with Razer before.
