Synapse 4 Chroma Laggy

I have several razer pheripherals. By defualt I have chroma set up so that a wave colour gradient from left to right goes across my devices. Since upgrading to Synapse 4, the way the wave travels is no longer smooth. I can visibly see the colours stepping from one shade to another as the gradient moves across the devices. The effect this produces is not nearly as pleasing as it looked when the gradient was smooth. I switched back to Synapse 3 and the problem is not there. Unfortunately it looks like the Wolverine v3 Pro isn’t compatible with Synapse 3 or I would stick with that. I don’t really understand how razer have managed to ruin this effect, but I’m wondering if anyone has the same experience or if we can expect a fix.

I also encountered this issue. Just can’t figure out why an official solution can hardly beat the open-sourced one.

You can use OpenRGB with KeyboardVisualizer that even works on Mac and Linux fluently.
