Attention. Will not work if you are using virtual surround software.
atleast it didnt for me until i turned off surround sound pro.
tried setting realtek HD audio manager to 5.1. It also made the keyboard only light up on the right side.


Under the format tab of the audio settings, what frequency are you using? If it's high (96000 or 192000Hz) then that should condense the waveform to the LEFT side of the keyboard. It's a known issue, as I'm assuming CD-quality 44.1KHz input. I skip every 4 samples to effectively have an ~8KHz data sample to run the FFT on which becomes the visualizer. If I did much higher than that it would lose detail at the low end. On systems with higher sample rates, this skipping every 4 produces a result that is essentially 16KHz or higher, which compresses the visualizer by nature of the frequency change.

I don't have one of those either, that only has two lights on it right? To work well with visualizer it would need LED strips like the Mamba TE and Firefly have. At best I could have it display the background color. I could do pulsing brightness but it would need some work to use all the colors.

The way i got it working:
- Download the Visual C++ stuff and install both x86 and x64
- Download SDK Installers
- Install "Razer_Chroma_SDK_Core_v0.4.8"
- Extract the "Razer_Chroma_SDK_Documentation_Beta4.8"
- Click on "Enable SDK support(x86) and (x64) aswell
- Open the "KeyboardVisualizerVC"

ps: if your default windows playback option is 5.1 or 7.1 surround, it will mainly work in the center arrows, set to stereo and it should be fine. As stated before, 16 bit/44100hz produce a more natural representation.

I personally use 24/192khz with Amplitude 200% and Average Mode in Low Pass. Set Foreground to Rainbow and it's super awesome!

Working on Razer Blackwidow Chroma with Razer Green Switches.
Hope it helps you guys!

If you give to make at least one light , it is more than necessary , the important thing is to give the feeling of " Beats"

thanks for the help in the setup, here i made mine work 😃

Hey guys, I apologize.

Right now, we only have support for the Mamba TE, Blackwidow Chroma and Firefly.

BUT fret not, we will potentially see an update coming with more products supported 🙂 This is still an early build! We will keep you guys updated.

having real troubles getting the vc_redist files. Microsoft's website is broken, wont let me download ANYTHING. what an absolute shame.

Edit: Ok, to anyone else having the same issue as me, a window will popup if you click on the "if your download doesn't start, click here" link on microsoft's website, then you will see 2 options with tickboxes to the left, (x64 and x86) click the links in the center. for some strange reason microsoft wont let you download them automatically.

Chroma TE isn't supported at the current beta version, but @CalcProgrammer1 and I are working on adding more product support to it :)

Thus, BW TE Chroma/Kraken 7.1 Chroma/DA Chroma users - stay tuned!

this isn't working on my razer blackwidow chroma stealth edition. is it because it's stealth? i don't think so, and it doesn't even make sense tbh. what happens is the keyboard visualizer works, cause it picks up the sound waves but it doesn't transmit them to the chroma, maybe i'm just missing some parts, but it doesn't seem to work

I see, thats why i cant make it work with my BWCTE. Anyways im looking forward for the another update hoping that it will support BWCTE and DeathAdder Chroma 🙂

Hey @JoshBGaming , @ParkourEDM and @bluemoonman99

Have you guys also followed through the 2nd to 4th steps too? Installing the SDK Core Files along with enabling the SDK Registry files are important steps.

After changing your effects to the default lighting profiles, you can also exit Synapse to be doubly sure.


This is still an very early build so fret not! Things will get easier in the future :)

@CalcProgrammer1 will also be taking in your feedbacks into consideration for future versions.

Thats nice! it works for me but even if I got the Amplitude on 100% I have to turn up my Windows Volume to 100% to get the effect shown in the video. I have to turn my Speakers down to like 1-5% and thats not how it should be I guess. But this version works better than the old one! Good Job :D

Would love to see this and other effects like the (Philips) "Ambilight" on Synapse soon.

What do you mean "enable", this might be my problem. Thanks

Enable SDK Support.reg it sais in the instructions. you downloaded the virtual blablabla x84 or the other one. but enable the other sdk support. hope you understand what i mean 😛 I'm bad in explayning 😛

Works best with Amplitude between 150-200% past that it's way to fast, for me at least. Thank you Razer for doing this!!!
