Hi all, I'm sure this kind of thread has already been made but....

I've been playing mania for a while and whilst I mainly focused on 4K, I'm trying to get into 7K, however recently, I discovered this thing called ghosting and rollovers and I kinda get it but not really ;)

Anyways..... I'm in need of a new keyboard, one that works well with all key combinations (100% anti-ghosting?) and while I know there are tons, my biggest concern is that I use a Mac.

So I was just wondering if anyone knew any good Mac compatible keyboards for mania!!

Thanks :D

Hey, in Mania there's a rule that states that all mapped 7k songs are required to not use all seven keys at once, so don't worry about that...
but a neat trick is that certain combos of keys such as Leftshift,z,x,space,j,k,l will allow you to use all 7 keys at once on almost any usb keyboard as long as the keyboard isnt awful.

I still use a mesh keyboard but a good basic mechanical for cheap is http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823129019 and as far as switches I recommend the MX Browns. Also the Razer keyboard was on sale a week ago but idk about now.

Are you using iMac or a macbook?

I use a macbook pro and the layout shift z x space j k l works perfectly unless you play oss on parallels.

Other than that I don't really know good keyboards that work well with macs

Though I may have some annoying carpel tunnel syndrome on my left arm...

This keyboard: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KX8 ... UTF8&psc=1, has gotten me very in Osu Mania.

There are also cheaper versions of it available.

I recommend the razer blackwidow (any kind, stealth or ultimate) it supports up to 10 keys at once with any keyboard configs works well on Mac also

I use the standard mac keyboard. Even though its ghosting i dont see any problems, you dont need a good keyboard if you have the skills. Seriously

get a RED key mechanical keyboard that has anti ghosting. you won't want anything other than red as it is the softest and takes the least strength to press
