Operability that makes work much more comfortable and faster

Simply tilt and turn to speed up parameter adjustment.
【 Orbital Engine 】

The Orbital Engine is an interface that offers excellent volume and parameter adjustment.
It is an interface that seamlessly realizes multiple parameter adjustments by combining the three actions of "tilt," "turn," and "push," and can register up to eight dials and switch functions.
In Orbital Engine mode, each function is selected according to the direction in which the joystick is tilted, and the function is executed by turning the dial left or right. In joystick mode, the function is executed the moment the joystick is turned over.

Orbital Engine Mode

You can intuitively execute "zoom in/out", "view rotation", and "brush size adjustment" for illustrators, and "sequence enlargement/reduction", "frame movement", and "audio track enlargement/reduction" for video creators.

Joystick Mode

Often used to switch between tools such as eraser, pen, and brush.

It can be used as a single key or
Eight buttons that can be used to register multiple functions at once.
【 Flat Ring 】

The Flat Ring is an interface consisting of eight switches.
It supports keyboard key assignments, repeated key presses, and long presses. In addition, a UI menu with a screen overlay accelerates keystrokes in creative scenes. For the switch, we selected a sensor that provides a "click" feedback while operating at an extremely light weight. Through intensive testing, we have achieved specifications that do not strain the user even after long hours of use.

Flick Menu

This function is recommended for creative work using a pen tablet. By flicking the ring-shaped menu that expands around the mouse cursor, various functions can be executed. This function is well received not only by illustrators but also by video creators who use a lot of mask functions.

List Menu

This function is recommended for creative work using the mouse. By registering the operations you often perform, you can execute them with a single touch from the list, just like a right-click menu. It is preferred by video and CG creators who use the mouse to perform a lot of functions located in the deep hierarchy of the menu bar.

You can set your favorite color for each creative software.
【 Glow Ring 】

Equipped with RGB (full color) LEDs. It adds a cool color to your work space. You can set any color for each creative software, such as blue for Photoshop, purple for After Effects, etc., to grasp the status of Orbital2 at a glance.

Support for various software

CLIP STUDIO PAINT / Medibang Paint / SAI / Painter / openCanvas
Avid Media Composer / Adobe XD / Capture One / DaVinci Resolve
Final Cut Pro / Premiere Rush / CINEMA 4D and many more software are supported.

※Some keyboard shortcuts may need to be customized depending on the specifications of the creative software.
※Most software that has shortcut keys can be used with it.

You can customize the settings as you like.

The default settings of Orbital2 include only the very basic ones. This is because only you can create your own profile settings to fit each and every creator. Enjoy the try and error process and create your very own Orbital2.

Various useful functions

Program Macros

This function allows you to record the intended process and execute it with a single action, such as "adding effects" in After Effects or "creating multiple layers" in CLIP STUDIO PAINT.

Key Rotation

This function allows you to call up to 10 shortcut keys in rotation. It is often used to quickly switch between a large number of tools with only one hand.

Text Blocks

This feature allows you to register frequently used text for one-action text input. This can be used to input text for standard expressions and layer names.

Mouse function

The mouse function is a feature that allows you to perform the "click function" and "scroll function" that you normally perform with a mouse from Orbital2. It supports mouse operations such as clicking, scrolling up/down, and center-clicking.

Profile Switching

This function allows you to seamlessly switch between individual settings optimized for each creative software. By assigning to the flat ring, you can switch profiles of creative software more easily.

Other functions

Other features include the ability to repeat keystrokes multiple times and to delay the timing before and after keystrokes are executed. More detailed customization is possible.

It has been used by professional creators in a variety of industries.

You will be able to assign keyboard short cut to quite customizable, so that mean you can assign many different features into one small device.
That’s interesting to trail this device O2 devices have no more keyboard on my left hand just have a device my left hand. Therefore, I think over time this O2 become second nature.
