MY BATTLESTATION - Hue Play - Nanoleaf Light Panels

S
Good morning,
after a little cable management, I have the final (for now) configuration of my BattleStation:






We have:

- Nari (modded with Brainwavz Yellow Ear Pads)
- Lancehead
- Blackwidow Tournament Edition
- Mousemat RGB Large
- Base Station Chroma

Fully integrated with:
- Philips HUE Play (behind the monitor)
- Nanoleaf Lightpanels (on the wall)

There's also a wonderful LOGITECH UE mini boom, behind the auxiliary small monitor, for the audio (the monitor has no speakers and I don't like big speakers and other cables on my desktop).
The monitor is a really nice "LG 34UC89G 34, 21:9 UltraWide, 2560x1080, 144Hz, nVIDIA G-Sync": it's perfect for my I7 and Geforce 1080Ti, playing all the actual games at the maximum details and steady at 60 fps minimum ( … not even to mention 140 Hz in Quake Champion … absolutely gorgeous).
I have an auxiliary HDMI monitor, with Rainmeter showing all the PC working parameters, and tweets, while gaming.

The light effects of the whole Razer stuff are perfectly harmonized by "Synapse Studio" with the Hue Play and a little less with the Nanoleaf Light Panels.
I have also a Razer Wolverine Ultimate Gamepad, but its chroma it's incredibly not integrated in synapse studio, and controlled only by a dedicated Synapse UWP App (for Xbox and Windows 10).

Thanks for reading.

    Great setup! Nice and clean. I need to add the Hue sync to my setup as well. Looks great. And you get a like for the Lego guy by the keyboard. Cool detail. :cool_:

    How do you like the feel and lighting on the lancehead?

    Cheers!!!

    Talking about the Lancehead: I used for more than a year a Logitech G900 Chaos Spectrum wireless mouse, a wonderful mouse.
    My priority, even if I love FPS gaming, is going wireless: I'm not a PRO player and I do not notice some ms maybe lag comparing to a wired mouse.
    I had a terrible experience with a Razer Mamba, a wonderful but really bugged mouse, first of all in terms of wireless connection, and I was really dubious about dropping my Logitech for another wireless Razer mouse., to complete my Razer setup.
    After one month of everyday use I have to confirm I think Razer tuned finally the problems of the previous wireless mouse: never lost the connection, and no bugs appeared.
    The lighting is wonderful and fully "paintable" with synapse studio: about the use of the mouse, I love it being slicker and thinner than the Logitech; the only questioning I have is about the side buttons, really hard to press, and too much little, and the sleep mode, requiring some seconds of waving the mouse on the pad to gain back full control.
    But summarizing, I'm definitely in love with my Lancehead.

    Finally resolved to make some GIFs of the Setup ...

    Could you describe how you got your Nanoleaf panels working with Chroma? Like many of the other threads on the forum, I have the issue where the Chroma SDK service crashes when I launch a Chroma enabled game (like Overwatch) when I've installed the pairing tool found here: https://www2.razer.com/chroma-workshop/apps-nanoleaf-pairing-tool. I've been dying to get these panels synced up!

    Nice question ...
    The integration of the Nanoleaf Panels is still a mystery to me: there's no tab on synapse, there's no option to check the connection, or any kind of setting (apart from the "paired" in the tool you mentioned).
    I just installed the pairing tool and paired my panels, trying them in Overwatch: they worked flawless (I realized now I've been lucky), even if the integration is ridiculous, just some lighting effect when you choose the hero, and some strange in game integration, that I repeat it's absolutely not controllable.
    So right now I am in love with the hue play lights behind the monitor, working perfectly through synapse and with their own HUE Control APP, and control the Nanoleaf panels as standalone, for ambient light or decoration.
    Finally, I am sure you're already googled this post:

    Thanks for replying, I appreciate it!

    Yeah, I saw that thread you linked. Sadly, the Razer SDK service crashes after after using the pairing tool. To fix it, I need to delete the reg keys created by the tool and then reinstall Synapse. What a pain! I take solace in the fact that many other users have this same issue and I'm hopeful that Razer / Nanoleaf will release a fix soon.

    Many thanks.
    I just add that with the last Apex Legends patch, the Razer Synapse support has been added, with lovely effects.
