Updated Sep 23, 2016: changed instructions for ControllerMate (now downloadable).
Updated Sep 22, 2016: changed instructions for ControllerMate (differentiate left/right option key). Updated Sep 21, 2016: added instructions for ControllerMate. Updated Sep 8, 2016: added Karabiner support info. Updated Oct 22, 2015: added ControllerMate info. Updated Dec 7, 2019: added ControllerMate info. Let me know if there is any questions or concerns, I’ll try to answer them to the best of my knowledge. Giving it a shot wouldn’t hurt, they also have a demo version available on the website. Also it is known to have memory-hogging behaviors and glitches. On the down side, while it is more GUI-friendly, it requires a lot of handwork to map the entire keyboard. It is intended to be used with MIFI devices, gaming devices, and etc.
Several posts I’ve read also recommended ControllerMate for its utility. The settings I’ve made does NOT map the entire keyboard past F4 volume control, but only the calculator key. In theory, you can customize all of Windows specified keys and then some. But it is a solution with finer details and broader control. If used with karabiner, then check “w/ karabiner” group)ĬontrollerMate is a paid solution, so it may appear less appealing compared to Karabiner. (if solely used by itself, then check the first.
#Controllermate download install
Download ControllerMate from here, then install it.Note: ControllerMate is currently incompatible with macOS Catalina. Karabiner-Elements: please check this post out. But please do consider donating or paying to the developers some coffee money, they do deserve it.
I would personally recommend using Karabiner, as it is the only free option. Now I would argue those aren’t even features in the first place.Īt any rate, I’ve prepared number of ways to make it work on Mac.
#Controllermate download windows 8
It won’t work, because the keyboard is specifically designed and assigned for Windows 8 exclusive features, and Microsoft has no plan to release Mac drivers. Again, it works, but not as it was promised by bloggers or tech-journalists who had written pre-release reviews. I wrote a simple -but ridiculously long- review on Amazon on using MS sculpt keyboard on Mac.
