You can remap inputs down to the individual key and store those configurations as one of five onboard profiles\u2014perfect if you want layouts tailored to specific games, or a more work-oriented profile.<\/p>\n<p><native-ad position=\"sponsor-product\" shoulddisplaylabel=\"true\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Critical to the keyboard\u2019s gaming credentials, it includes a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/use-gaming-keyboards-mice-for-work\/\" class=\"text link\">macro manager<\/a> that lets you create custom inputs and command combos, down to how many milliseconds of input it should take before activating a keypress. It supports dozens of popular games by default, from competitive favorites like <em>Counter-Strike<\/em> and <em>Overwatch<\/em> to single-player epics like <em>Skyrim<\/em>, which have popular modding scenes and can benefit from bespoke controls. It even has presets for office apps and Photoshop, adding to the Vulcan\u2019s overall versatility. You can easily import new layouts, too.<\/p>\n<h2>Touch Typing<\/h2>\n<p>I\u2019ve been testing the version with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/how-to-shop-for-a-mechanical-keyboard\/\" class=\"text link\">linear switches<\/a>\u2014Turtle Beach also offers a model with tactile switches, both available in black or white. If you\u2019re new to mechanical keyboards, the main difference is that linear keys press all the way down smoothly, while tactile ones have a little \u201cbump\u201d of resistance as the internal switch activates, which you can feel as the keystroke registers. It\u2019s ultimately personal preference.<\/p>\n<p>For the most part, this is a joy to type on, with precise spacing between keys, and the keys themselves having a satisfying \u201cclackiness\u201d when fully pressed. The only small issue is that the factory-lubed linear keys are <em>so<\/em> smooth and silent until you get that clack as they hit the base, that it\u2019s easy to accidentally long-press a key. Until you\u2019re used to that, it can catch you off-guard\u2014not an issue when typing, where the worst is an errant stretch of letters whennnnnnnn pausing to think mid-sentence, but it tripped me up a couple of times in games until I was used to it.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, unlike Turtle Beach\u2019s earlier <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/gallery\/best-keyboards\/\" class=\"text link\">Vulcan II TKL Pro<\/a>, the keys here aren\u2019t <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/what-is-hall-effect\/\" class=\"text link\">Hall effect<\/a>, but they are hot-swappable\u2014another trade-off, exchanging long-term reliability and accuracy for the ability to replace or upgrade keys easily. The board supports three-pin or five-pin mechanical switch keys and makes swapping them easy. The flat keycaps also pop off without trouble, which makes cleaning simple. Turtle Beach claims the switches last 50 million keystrokes, which should be plenty, but only a third of the <a data-offer-url=\"https:\/\/www.turtlebeach.com\/products\/vulcan-ii-tkl-pro-keyboard\" class=\"external-link text link\" data-event-click=\"{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/www.turtlebeach.com\/products\/vulcan-ii-tkl-pro-keyboard&quot;}\" href=\"https:\/\/www.turtlebeach.com\/products\/vulcan-ii-tkl-pro-keyboard\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">TKL Pro&#8217;s<\/a> 150 million.<\/p>\n<p>In gaming, the Vulcan II XP offers a 1,000-Hz polling rate for a 1-millisecond response time, which is competition-grade but falls short of the higher-end 8,000-Hz keyboards on the market. Hopping back to Swarm II, you can activate its more advanced features, like <a data-offer-url=\"https:\/\/www.turtlebeach.com\/blog\/easy-shift-%E2%84%A2-technology-unlocks-pro-level-keyboard-functionality\" class=\"external-link text link\" data-event-click=\"{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/www.turtlebeach.com\/blog\/easy-shift-%E2%84%A2-technology-unlocks-pro-level-keyboard-functionality&quot;}\" href=\"https:\/\/www.turtlebeach.com\/blog\/easy-shift-%E2%84%A2-technology-unlocks-pro-level-keyboard-functionality\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Easy-Shift<\/a>, allowing for key duplication\u2014basically putting commonly used features within easier reach\u2014and <a data-offer-url=\"https:\/\/www.turtlebeach.com\/blog\/introducing-reactap-precision-in-every-tap-1\" class=\"external-link text link\" data-event-click=\"{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/www.turtlebeach.com\/blog\/introducing-reactap-precision-in-every-tap-1&quot;}\" href=\"https:\/\/www.turtlebeach.com\/blog\/introducing-reactap-precision-in-every-tap-1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">ReacTap<\/a>, assigning two commands to the same key, useful for games that require very swift inputs. (This might be banned in some competitive scenes under automation rules, though.)<\/p>\n<p>These features can be a little fiddly to set up and map, but with a little experimentation, you can build layouts and input fields that work exactly as you want or need. I tailored a bunch of controls for <em>Borderlands 3<\/em> and was dropping Psychos like never before. A minor annoyance, though: Reverting a specific input while trying to create a custom setup would sometimes revert the entire profile, which meant I had to redo everything.<\/p>\n<h2>Back to the Drawing Board<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"AssetEmbedWrapper-iJvQnD cOWUYC asset-embed\">\n<div class=\"AssetEmbedAssetContainer-fnduJP iaVSwI asset-embed__asset-container\"><span class=\"SpanWrapper-kFnjvc eKnjjD responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-gaAbQ hXaxHA asset-embed__responsive-asset\"><picture class=\"ResponsiveImagePicture-jKunQM gjCCFj AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-gaAbQ hXaxHA asset-embed__responsive-asset responsive-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Photograph of Turtle Beach Vulcan XP II\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-dkeESL cQPiWi responsive-image__image\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/6ada676c98c3409b75e4e212\/master\/w_120,c_limit\/Turtle%20Beach%20Vulcan%20XP%20II%20SOURCE%20Matt%20Kamen%20(1).jpg 120w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/6ada676c98c3409b75e4e212\/master\/w_240,c_limit\/Turtle%20Beach%20Vulcan%20XP%20II%20SOURCE%20Matt%20Kamen%20(1).jpg 240w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/6ada676c98c3409b75e4e212\/master\/w_320,c_limit\/Turtle%20Beach%20Vulcan%20XP%20II%20SOURCE%20Matt%20Kamen%20(1).jpg 320w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/6ada676c98c3409b75e4e212\/master\/w_640,c_limit\/Turtle%20Beach%20Vulcan%20XP%20II%20SOURCE%20Matt%20Kamen%20(1).jpg 640w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/6ada676c98c3409b75e4e212\/master\/w_768,c_limit\/Turtle%20Beach%20Vulcan%20XP%20II%20SOURCE%20Matt%20Kamen%20(1).jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/6ada676c98c3409b75e4e212\/master\/w_960,c_limit\/Turtle%20Beach%20Vulcan%20XP%20II%20SOURCE%20Matt%20Kamen%20(1).jpg 960w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/6ada676c98c3409b75e4e212\/master\/w_1280,c_limit\/Turtle%20Beach%20Vulcan%20XP%20II%20SOURCE%20Matt%20Kamen%20(1).jpg 1280w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/6ada676c98c3409b75e4e212\/master\/w_1600,c_limit\/Turtle%20Beach%20Vulcan%20XP%20II%20SOURCE%20Matt%20Kamen%20(1).jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"100vw\" src=\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/6ada676c98c3409b75e4e212\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/Turtle%2520Beach%2520Vulcan%2520XP%2520II%2520SOURCE%2520Matt%2520Kamen%2520(1).jpg\"\/><\/picture><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"BaseText-fEwdHD CaptionCredit-cUgOGk fSrqtv hRFzlA caption__credit\">Photograph: Matt Kamen<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>While the Vulcan II XP offers great performance for the price, I do have concerns about the overall build quality. On the unit I received, the media wheel was inverted by default\u2014turning it counter-clockwise toward the minus symbol turned the volume up. This was even after I updated the board\u2019s firmware through the Swarm II app, and I had to remap the inputs for it to work as intended. It\u2019s good that the Vulcan II XP\u2019s customization is specific and nuanced enough to remap even the dial direction, but I shouldn\u2019t have had to.<\/p>\n<p>I also found that the LEDs below the \u201c0\u201d and \u201c.\u201d keys on the NumPad don\u2019t seem to work properly, glowing a stubborn, glaring white no matter what color or pattern is assigned. I even tried turning off every other key\u2019s light and manually assigning colors to just those\u2014to no avail.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s another reason the board feels middle-of-the-road. Like the shiny metallic top plate hiding the cheaper plastic base, the Vulcan II XP dazzles at a glance, but the closer you look, the more flaws and small annoyances are revealed.<\/p>\n<p>For the price, some of those annoyances are forgivable. For anyone who hasn&#8217;t upgraded to a mechanical keyboard, this is a decent entry without breaking the bank, delivering a lovely typing experience backed up by enough pro-tier gaming features to feel like a real upgrade\u2014but more demanding or professional players will want to aim higher.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/review\/turtle-beach-vulcan-xp-ii\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Beyond the eye candy, Turtle Beach packs in an impressive slate of features.
