Specially Engineered Comfort
Building upon previous development with Equinox, Parallax uses a gasket sandwich PCB mount for thorough typing comfort.
PCB mount not your thing? Grab the open-sourced plate file and have a plate made in your choice of materials if you prefer traditional top mount.
A Layout Adapted for Today and Tomorrow
With 34 function keys and up to 9 arrow keys, Parallax allows for unparalleled direct input and macros while having fewer keys than a typical 108 key keyboard.
Modular blockers allow switching the right cluster between full, unsaver, and TKL modes.
