LogicKeyboard Adobe After Effects CC ASTRA2 PC US

The LogicKeyboard Adobe After Effects CC ASTRA2 PC US is a wired Windows keyboard built around the Adobe After Effects CC workflow. Its application-specific key layout keeps After Effects commands visible at the workstation, giving editors, motion graphics artists, and post-production operators a direct reference for shortcuts they use throughout a session.

The ASTRA2 uses low-profile scissor-switch keys with a light, responsive feel and includes white backlighting with five selectable brightness levels. That adjustment is useful in practice, particularly when the same workstation may be used in a normally lit production office during the day and a darker edit or graphics room later. A built-in USB 3.0 hub also provides an accessible place to connect commonly used desktop peripherals.

Why It Helps

After Effects work involves a lot of repeated keyboard commands, especially when moving between compositions, layers, timelines, and effects. Keeping those commands directly on the keyboard gives the operator a quick visual reference instead of requiring every shortcut to be recalled from memory. It is particularly useful on shared workstations or for operators who move between several production applications.

The adjustable backlighting makes the keyboard easier to work with across different room conditions. Five brightness settings allow the operator to keep the legends readable without making the keyboard unnecessarily bright in a darker edit or graphics suite.

The integrated USB 3.0 hub is also useful on a working edit desk. A mouse, phone, contour shuttle, or USB dongle can be connected at the keyboard rather than requiring the operator to reach for ports elsewhere on the workstation. It is a simple feature
