Adobe After Effects shortcut keyboard

The LogicKeyboard Astra 2 Series is a wired backlit keyboard designed for Adobe After Effects CC users. It uses a US English layout with dedicated shortcut legends printed on the keycaps. The low-profile scissor-switch mechanism provides a light, responsive typing feel suitable for extended editing sessions. It functions as a standard input device for compatible computers.

USB 3.0 hub with dual-cable design

The keyboard integrates a USB 3.0 hub for connecting peripherals such as a mouse, phone, or USB dongle. It employs two separate USB cables: a grey cable for the keyboard and a black cable for the hub. This dual-cable architecture prevents installation issues when a KVM extender is used in the setup. The hub draws power independently from the keyboard circuit.

Five-level backlight for varied environments

Five selectable backlight levels allow adjustment for any lighting condition, from dark rooms to bright offices. The black keycaps with illuminated legends maintain shortcut visibility without causing glare. The backlight draws power from the keyboard's USB connection and does not require a separate power adapter. The illumination is fixed white and not RGB configurable.

Questions about this item

How loud and warm does the Astra 2 keyboard get during all-day editing sessions?

The low-profile scissor-switch keys are designed for a light, responsive feel and run silently; the keyboard draws power from USB so it adds negligible heat to your workspace.

What must I already own to use the built-in USB 3.0 hub on this keyboard?

You need a PC with two free USB-A ports — one grey cable for the keyboard and one black cable for the hub — plus any USB peripherals such as a mouse, phone, Contour Shuttle or dongle you want to connect.

Will the Astra 2 work reliably alongside an older KVM extender I still use?

Yes; the dual-cable design separates the keyboard signal from the hub signal, which avoids the installation problems that single-cable keyboards can cause with KVM extenders.
