That's a beautiful keyboard! I love that the switches are sticking up out of the base, and are not into it. It makes things so much easier to clean. It would be interesting to try it out :)
Just bought this keyboard after building a new rig (3700x and 2070 Super). It's hands down the best low profile keyboard I've ever used. It's a damn beaut and hitting the keys feels so satisfying. Titan brown and cherry red works great for all around computer work whether it's business or gaming related. I picked it over the Corsair K70 - I didn't like its spacebar or font and the price was $60 more. The Vulcan feels like it has a way more quality build as well. It also won't break the bank at $100. Many of its competitors are $150+. Works great with my DeathAdder. Great work Roccat!!!
I had my 121 for over 2 months now, and i must really say, I love it. I'm glad that I decided to spend more money for my Keyboard. The only really downsite of this Keyboard is, that there is no.
@@freezer6923 theres downsides. easy shift is useless for left handed arrow key gamers as its only working on the left side of the board we leftys dont use. you seem to need game mode for rebinds which results in some frustrating situations and may end up being the reason for me returning mine.
@@pino_de_vogel not sure why you refer this to me but never mind. Sad to hear you are disappointed in it, i myself love it but yeah there is a downside i noticed once i got mine. The lights on the keys are exposed making them really bright if you gaze at the keyboard at certain angles. But other than that i love it, the cleaniness of it was one of the main reasons i got mine😉
@@freezer6923 should have gone 1 tree up i see. yeah the lights where a issue at first specially under a angle but i have it set to alll red for my desktop profile and on lowest brightness and that is not to bad. on lighter colours its worse. and i still like it in general is just the freaking game mode requirement and application on all profiles that is a issue. im sure they could fix this if they really wanted to in either firmware or swarm.
My Vulcan 121 is one of the few pieces of hardware that I have purchased at full retail price. I have been nothing but pleased with it, too! I have to admit that most of the lighting themes are kinda meh, but Aurora [a free RGB keyboard LED configuration program] fixed that. Now, it's absolutely perfect!
I bought one from Amazon US because my country (IDN) official distributor for Roccat not sell it. I waited for 2,5 months and boy oh boy. It was worth it. I love the illumination provided by AIMO (react to button press mode) and how light the button is and especially the spacebar that it registered the press so fast even when i'm not pressing it full to bottom plate.
thank you so much I didn't know how to control this keyboard and I thought it only had one l.e.d mode but now that I saw this video I can finally change my keyboard lights!
I've had 3 roccat vulcan's over the past ~4ish years. All 3 have had multiple keys fail. I've tried cleaning them with compressed air. I've taken them apart and removed the switches, cleaned and then replaced them and the only thing that seems to work is to remove the keycap on the keys that have failed. There seems to be a mechanical issue where the keycaps themselves cause the switches to no longer activate properly. They're nice keyboards, quiet and comfortable with the low profile design but don't expect them to last much more than a year. My corsair vengeance k70, which is louder and not as sleek is simply built better and going strong without issue after ~7ish years. Considering the price of the vulcan you're probably better off buying something that's cheaper that'll also break down after a year.
11. You may get disappointed with the RGB profiles if you had SteelSeries or Razer keyboards (didn't have Corsair keyboard, so it's excluded) 12. It's software likes to crash (rarely for me, but still) *Beside that it's a superb keyboard, what means it does it's primary job perfectly.*
One thing I've noticed with Roccat, their hardware is great but their software bites. I have their Vulcan Pro keyboard, and I don't know if I'll ever get another Roccat device after this because I hate the software and especially their documentation/instructions (or lack thereof).
@@stevet1898 still love it.. my wife sort of dropped some stuff on it in accident when moving.. and only a key cracked... This is a sturdy awesome keyboard.. it feels as great as when I first bought it. Let's just say you can't go wrong with it.
those germans...always making good stuff ;) im testing out new keyboards right now and im typing on a corsair k70. I'm going to try out the other one next
I have this keyboard and I can say that Vulcan 120,121, and 122 aimo models are having an switches issues. My Vulcan 121 AIMO started to not taking all the commands (A-button mostly) and this is happening when I gaming and I press a lot of buttons and fast. If I use it for coding and regular desktop usage it's okay. It's under warranty but at the service, they claimed it works just fine (I guess they did not test it in a gaming session...). I forgot to mention that this happened after less than a year of usage (I am playing only csgo, but alot). Anyway, be careful if you buy one of those models.
Exact same problem. Just sent a ticket for support, but having heard their customer service is less than receptive, I'm not expecting any replacements despite it being under warranty.
I just purchased the Vulcan 121 and so far, I love it. The only 'issue' I have with it so far (and this is just a petty visual thing) is that you can't sync the lights up to interact with a lot of the popular games I play, which is quite disappointing, as my older keyboard could do this. You also can't sync the lights with music or colour pick. I simply think this is a missed opportunity and would like to see this added in future :) And I know you can do this with certain ROCCAT keyboards and mice but I think it should be extended to more recent makes! :)
Hi Jamison, Thanks a lot for your feedback and that you like our product! Also many thanks for your suggestions regarding the lights - we will note it down and forward it to our design team :) Keep up the great spirit! 💪 😍
@@turtlebeachpc Thank you so much! I'm really happy to hear that you'll take my suggestion into consideration and I look forward to any future updates regarding lighting or other. It's so great that you take the time to respond to comments! :) Love your products!
Is there a sleep timer function for the LED light switches (e.g. turns off automatically when inactive for 1 minute)? If the LED lights are on all the time even when we are not using it that will shorten the lifespan
Got my 121 today and already loving it. The Kain 200 unfortunately didn't fit to me due the tilt-function of its mouse-wheel which needs to much force in my opinion. Using the Kone Aimo remastered instead and it's lovely! Good job Roccat!
It's good but I buy the roccat Vulcan tkl and doesnt have a wrist rest can i buy it separately, it will attach well with magnet and it is the right size? thank you
My Vulcan 120 keyboard just stopped working, it doesn't connect to the computer, even when i check the things connected to the computer on settings it isn't there. Please help me with this problem

Hi dude, I'm looking forward to buying this keyboard but I've seen some reviews that some keys stop working after a certain amount of time, about like 6 months. Have you had any issues with this?
@@gabrielmarquez8232 Yes, I had this. My one key didn't work. I decided to clean up and everything back to normal mechanics. One big thrash walk into under button.
@@sanetro4563 Oooh, I see. I'm between this one and the Logitech G815, but still don't know which one, mainly because of the problems I've seen this keyboard has with the keys not working after a while.
@@gabrielmarquez8232 Every keyboard has own limit, sad but true. My was actually good. From past to now I had not any issues. My is still good condition
@@sanetro4563 Perfect dude, thanks for the reply. So, would you suggest to get this keyboard? How's the software like? Sorry for asking too much but I can't find videos or reviews on how good or bad the software is and what illumination effects you can choose for the keyboard. :D
i just got the vulcan 121 and notice there's no backlight on or off button as shown in the video.... is there a way to dim the lighting or adjust brightness without going into the swarm software?
Honestly i love Roccat products. I have the Roccat Tyon mice (which is the best mice of my life, recommended by friend) also have the Roccat Sense mousepad, and now i'm considering a Vulcan keyboard... That desing with EasyShift is just sick!
I got myself a Vulcan TKL and and ran into a little issue. Since i installed the swarm software yesterday, i can only set brightness via fn + arrow keys in 4 steps. Before that i was able to set the brightness in much finer steps, having to press many times to go through the full range but i liked it it that way. I set it to the lowest step for typing in the dark but now i can only do this via swarm. Anyone knows what happened? Did swarm automatically update the Vulcans firmware or something like that? Or is it some setting i didn't see?
Why didn't you include the Thumb buttons (Ryos and ARVO)? this is such a great feature, as the natural resting position for your thumb is on/below space bar. Would like to see this feature come back.
a question i have the keyboard and its wonderfull but i dont know how many keystrokes it lasts so roccat please response and also does it the custom soundeffects still work
Can i use th eFN f1 f2 f3 thing to set up layouts? Like gamin glayout highlights only some keys and then another to setup my trading hotkeys? oh can set up macros by the tenkey area? nice
That wrist rest does fall off, you can hold it in the air and it’ll stay on. Yet with a simple tug, it will come off. Glad magnet strength was not overlooked
Posting on newest video in hopes of better visibility....I've got the ISKU+ Force FX keyboard and have two problems with it I can't seem to find answers for. 1. How can I just have the LEDs on constantly? I hate having to wait a few seconds to be able to see my keys in the dark. 2. What exactly does the heatmap feature do and how do I make it work? My assumption is it changes the colors of keys used most often as they're used, but none of my keys ever change color no matter how long I go for. Thanks.
I wish they added layered lighting effects so I can have one color on all keys, and a layer above that which is reactive (like ripple). Now if I use ripple, they keys not pushed are just dark.
Hi! how can we clean up this vulcan keyboard? Can we pull out the keys with a keycap remover tool?Mine has became dusty and dirty. Don't want to damage the aluminium surfacer either, enlighten me please !
You can clean the Vulcan with a can of compressed air spray, it's quite easy to get into the spaces between the two with the white tube. If the keycaps themselves should be cleaned, they can be removed with a little care and feeling by hand and then cleaned without damaging the electronics. Nevertheless, the Vulcan is not waterproof as such, and even with chemical cleaners you should not get to the switches themselves.
I got myself the Vulcan 121 and the Roccat leadr and I gotta say they work absolutely perfect. Edit: I got recently the khan aimo and the taito xxl to finish the set-up and it's sooo godlike
-80 is black with only blue lighting and no scrollwheel -100 is silver with the scrollwheel and full rgb -120 is similar to 100 with an included palmrest -121 is just a black version of 120
Okay, I love the keyboard, the best I've ever had. But I don't really like Swarm in terms of RGB customisation, it's a joke tbh. Swarm provides you with 8 presets from witch 2 aren't fully customisable (not including AIMO): Wave and Snake (Snake has 10 colour presets). And it's a bit shit for someone like me bc I like Wave in light blue and dark blue but the only thing I get is rainbow. And the problem is that I cannot program that in Custom Mode because the only effects it provides are Fully Lit, Breathing and Heartbeat. Something like Razer's Chroma Studio is way better because it provides 11 presets that are all customisable. And if you want you can use all of these modes on one device. So as I said, I love the Vulcan and I don't think that I would exchange it for another keyboard but it's kinda annoying that I am so limited when it comes to my specific taste in RGB. And with that I can only quote Barthez's top comment: *Beside that it's a superb keyboard, what means it does it's primary job perfectly.*
i just got my beautiful 122 and the switches the rgb the aimo everything feels so smooth and fun to use not like my last rgb keyboard but the last one wasnt a bad experience anyway i just love this keyboard and its features so friggin much!
Hello! I have a friend who can change the colours of his keyboard. But diffrently. For example, he is playing Overwatch and plays Reinhard and everytime he put up his shield it would be a coloursheme on his tastaur, who also looks like his shield. Not all keys were coloured but they got coloured from the bottom to the top. I have the Vulcan 120. I´m searching trough the settings but I rlly dont know how I can do this. Thanks in advance!
I love the 122 one , although i ve read complaints i hope these has been solves , im waiting for a sale off in amazon cuz right now have much competition for that price
Hey Cyril, sorry for the late reply. The KEYS of the Vulcan, the whole switch so to say, cannot be removed, the switches are soldered. But the KeyCAPS can be removed without any problems. You can either pull them down by hand or use a so-called key puller. Hope this helps :)
I have been unable to add any new macros to this keyboard. The easy shift function does not work. I also have the ROCCAT LEADR mouse, and the easy shift function from mouse to keyboard does not work either. I have tried to contact ROCCAT several times to get a solution to this problem. I have great things to say about the LEDR mouse and its ability to accept new macros. I use this mouse for work and fun. I am a CAD operator so I have the mouse fully loaded with two profiles full of CAD macros; I just wish this keyboard could do what it claims it can. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Hey D_man, thanks for your comprehensive feedback! We are sorry to hear that our Support did not help you in the way you wanted. Do you have a ticket number of your last Support request?
So glad i watched this i never knew i could cycle color schemes i dont own a pc yet so i use it on my xbox one so figured id have to wait before i can personalize my colore
Did the key peeling problem get resolved in the Vulcan 122? It looks amazing but alot of reviews in amazon complain about key pain peeling off after weeks. I'm waiting for mine by mail to see how it goes, will update this after about a month to report if anyone's interested!
@@familydude-lq7ec Hello! I actually meant to post here again about it next week. But it's been a bit over a month and it's working perfectly, no key discoloration or anything like some reviews had, my guess is they fixed that problem. The keyboard looks and feels like a million bucks, the keys are slightly separated so it's easier to clean with air while also letting you look at the cool crystal-like transparent part under the keys. I use a mixture of half vinegar and half water on a microfiber cloth to clean the keys, alcohol will damage your stuff otherwise. It's also not noisy or anything. Overall it's the best keyboard I have ever owned, much better looking than anything leading companies have in my opinion, with competing quality, I have the white one, Vulcan 122 Aimo RGB Mechanical Gaming Keyboard. I also have the Roccat Kone AIMO Gaming Mouse, it looks amazing how the color effects synchronize.
@@zereimu Man I love you. Thank you so much for your honesty and insight. I JUST bought this keyboard to replace my retiring one, and an extra as a gift for my brother in law for the upcoming holidays. Cheers to you and stay safe!

best feature to clean from dust I just love that, i enjoy my keyboard on my main system, wristpad should be soft not plastic
very useful information
I got myself a Vulcan TKL and and ran into a little issue. Since i installed the swarm software yesterday, i can only set brightness via fn + arrow keys in 4 steps. Before that i was able to set the brightness in much finer steps, having to press many times to go through the full range but i liked it it that way. I set it to the lowest step for typing in the dark but now i can only do this via swarm. Anyone knows what happened? Did swarm automatically update the Vulcans firmware or something like that? Or is it some setting i didn't see?
Why didn't you include the Thumb buttons (Ryos and ARVO)? this is such a great feature, as the natural resting position for your thumb is on/below space bar. Would like to see this feature come back.
Hey there, thanks a lot for your suggestion! We will keep it in mind and forward it to our design department :)
a question i have the keyboard and its wonderfull but i dont know how many keystrokes it lasts so roccat please response
and also does it the custom soundeffects still work
The switches are designed to last 50 Million keystrokes. Sound and lighting effects can be customised in the Swarm app.
Can i use th eFN f1 f2 f3 thing to set up layouts? Like gamin glayout highlights only some keys and then another to setup my trading hotkeys? oh can set up macros by the tenkey area? nice
i have the keybord and i want to do game mood but caps lock is not working. how i disebeld just the windows kay only?
You have to turn game mode off, press FN + Game mode button (somewhere near f12)
@@whatsuphelp i know that. game mood off on i know how to do it. i just want the capslock will work in game mood..........
That wrist rest does fall off, you can hold it in the air and it’ll stay on. Yet with a simple tug, it will come off. Glad magnet strength was not overlooked
bro how do i change the colors ive been sitting here for 20 minutes just looking online on how to change them help
Posting on newest video in hopes of better visibility....I've got the ISKU+ Force FX keyboard and have two problems with it I can't seem to find answers for. 1. How can I just have the LEDs on constantly? I hate having to wait a few seconds to be able to see my keys in the dark. 2. What exactly does the heatmap feature do and how do I make it work? My assumption is it changes the colors of keys used most often as they're used, but none of my keys ever change color no matter how long I go for. Thanks.
I love your products! Great work👍
How do I open up the sound files
hi I just brought this keyboard just wondering if its possible to change the actuation point ?
What's the Durability of the Titan Switch
Up to 50 mio clicks :)
can you tell me how to fix led lag while playing a game please?
which type ist the best to be compared to the cherry mx red switch?
I wish they added layered lighting effects so I can have one color on all keys, and a layer above that which is reactive (like ripple). Now if I use ripple, they keys not pushed are just dark.
that would be sick roccat
Hi! how can we clean up this vulcan keyboard? Can we pull out the keys with a keycap remover tool?Mine has became dusty and dirty. Don't want to damage the aluminium surfacer either, enlighten me please !
You can clean the Vulcan with a can of compressed air spray, it's quite easy to get into the spaces between the two with the white tube. If the keycaps themselves should be cleaned, they can be removed with a little care and feeling by hand and then cleaned without damaging the electronics. Nevertheless, the Vulcan is not waterproof as such, and even with chemical cleaners you should not get to the switches themselves.
I got myself the Vulcan 121 and the Roccat leadr and I gotta say they work absolutely perfect.
Edit: I got recently the khan aimo and the taito xxl to finish the set-up and it's sooo godlike
That's nice to hear! Thanks a lot for the feedback 😍 👍
It sounds like i'm a arschkriecher but I really like those products
That's totally okay 😘 😎
what keycaps fit vulcan 120
How do I turn off the white light of the mute, FX and volume buttons on the top right?
why mine not have it? the moses when i press fn it does not work
i got Ryos MK Pro and im hella happy with it =] maybe i will upgrade to Vulcan some day but not today my dear friend... not today...
So I’m confused ? What is the difference between the 120 and 121 ?
-80 is black with only blue lighting and no scrollwheel
-100 is silver with the scrollwheel and full rgb
-120 is similar to 100 with an included palmrest
-121 is just a black version of 120
Okay, I love the keyboard, the best I've ever had. But I don't really like Swarm in terms of RGB customisation, it's a joke tbh.
Swarm provides you with 8 presets from witch 2 aren't fully customisable (not including AIMO): Wave and Snake (Snake has 10 colour presets). And it's a bit shit for someone like me bc I like Wave in light blue and dark blue but the only thing I get is rainbow.
And the problem is that I cannot program that in Custom Mode because the only effects it provides are Fully Lit, Breathing and Heartbeat.
Something like Razer's Chroma Studio is way better because it provides 11 presets that are all customisable. And if you want you can use all of these modes on one device.
So as I said, I love the Vulcan and I don't think that I would exchange it for another keyboard but it's kinda annoying that I am so limited when it comes to my specific taste in RGB.
And with that I can only quote Barthez's top comment:
*Beside that it's a superb keyboard, what means it does it's primary job perfectly.*
sounds nice, please make one with a thumb cluster like the isku had. i Need that for my Work.
anyone getting issue with the wsad keys when gaming...especially warzone..mines are sticking when moving
i just got my beautiful 122 and the switches the rgb the aimo everything feels so smooth and fun to use not like my last rgb keyboard but the last one wasnt a bad experience anyway i just love this keyboard and its features so friggin much!
I had my Vulcan 80 for almost 2 years and i recently got the new vulcan pro, these keyboards are just flawless
Hello! I have a friend who can change the colours of his keyboard. But diffrently. For example, he is playing Overwatch and plays Reinhard and everytime he put up his shield it would be a coloursheme on his tastaur, who also looks like his shield. Not all keys were coloured but they got coloured from the bottom to the top. I have the Vulcan 120. I´m searching trough the settings but I rlly dont know how I can do this. Thanks in advance!
Hi MissSebby, thanks for you question! Unfortunately, the Vulcan does not work that way. AIMO currently only reacts to the keystrokes themselves.
@@turtlebeachpc thank you :) love my vulcan 120 anyways!
Nice, that's so good to hear 💖
I love the 122 one , although i ve read complaints i hope these has been solves , im waiting for a sale off in amazon cuz right now have much competition for that price
i knew all 10 things
0:24 how you do with light ?? where is in the app pleeaase
On their Webside there should be able to download Roccat Swarm
There's even a sound FX key, wow I wish I was lucky enough to try that out with my DJ setup ha.
Should i get linear or tactile switches?
Is it possible to change the mapping of the "Windows Key" or only disable it... ?
The windows key is disabled in gaming mode :)
Hello Raccot does the Raccot 121 AIMO work on the Ps4?
Can I know, how I can buy PALM REST for my roccat vulcan 100 AIMO ?
what can I do if my spacebar is sometimes failing?
I dont know why, but my Game Mode dont work. I cant activate it :(
hi, how do i clean/remove the keys ? mine aren't responding well anylonger. already resetted settings, can't write properly or play with it ATM
Hey Cyril, sorry for the late reply. The KEYS of the Vulcan, the whole switch so to say, cannot be removed, the switches are soldered. But the KeyCAPS can be removed without any problems. You can either pull them down by hand or use a so-called key puller. Hope this helps :)
I have been unable to add any new macros to this keyboard. The easy shift function does not work. I also have the ROCCAT LEADR mouse, and the easy shift function from mouse to keyboard does not work either. I have tried to contact ROCCAT several times to get a solution to this problem. I have great things to say about the LEDR mouse and its ability to accept new macros. I use this mouse for work and fun. I am a CAD operator so I have the mouse fully loaded with two profiles full of CAD macros; I just wish this keyboard could do what it claims it can. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Hey D_man, thanks for your comprehensive feedback! We are sorry to hear that our Support did not help you in the way you wanted. Do you have a ticket number of your last Support request?
So glad i watched this i never knew i could cycle color schemes i dont own a pc yet so i use it on my xbox one so figured id have to wait before i can personalize my colore
WOW!! I gonna buy this one ;D
They announce a new one tomorrow
Did the key peeling problem get resolved in the Vulcan 122? It looks amazing but alot of reviews in amazon complain about key pain peeling off after weeks. I'm waiting for mine by mail to see how it goes, will update this after about a month to report if anyone's interested!
Hows the keyboard so far? Any issues?
@@familydude-lq7ec Hello! I actually meant to post here again about it next week. But it's been a bit over a month and it's working perfectly, no key discoloration or anything like some reviews had, my guess is they fixed that problem.
The keyboard looks and feels like a million bucks, the keys are slightly separated so it's easier to clean with air while also letting you look at the cool crystal-like transparent part under the keys. I use a mixture of half vinegar and half water on a microfiber cloth to clean the keys, alcohol will damage your stuff otherwise.
It's also not noisy or anything. Overall it's the best keyboard I have ever owned, much better looking than anything leading companies have in my opinion, with competing quality, I have the white one, Vulcan 122 Aimo RGB Mechanical Gaming Keyboard.
I also have the Roccat Kone AIMO Gaming Mouse, it looks amazing how the color effects synchronize.
@@zereimu Man I love you. Thank you so much for your honesty and insight. I JUST bought this keyboard to replace my retiring one, and an extra as a gift for my brother in law for the upcoming holidays. Cheers to you and stay safe!
@@familydude-lq7ec You're welcome!
