Every AULA WIN68, HERO and AG75 board lists Rapid Trigger; the WIN68 MAX, HERO 75 HE and AG75 add SOCD and DKS. The HERO 84 HE adds Mod-Tap and Dynamic Keystrokes, while the HERO 75 HE and AG75 also list Multi-Point Trigger, Toggle and END.
Magnetic keyboards measure how far every key has travelled, and that opens the door to a whole menu of key behaviours that a normal board cannot do. The trouble is the alphabet soup on the box: RT, SOCD, DKS, MT, TGL, MPT, END, RS. Here is a plain-English guide to the magnetic keyboard key modes each AULA board lists, and which board offers which.
Every AULA WIN68, HERO and AG75 board lists Rapid Trigger; the WIN68 MAX, HERO 75 HE and AG75 add SOCD and DKS. The HERO 84 HE adds Mod-Tap and Dynamic Keystrokes, while the HERO 75 HE and AG75 also list Multi-Point Trigger, Toggle and END. The AG75 carries the longest list, including Rapid Switch and macros. Across the five, Evetech charges R449 for the WIN68 HE, R699 for the WIN68 MAX, R719 for the HERO 84 HE, R899 for the HERO 75 HE and R2,399 or R2,799 for the AG75.
A key resets the moment it starts to rise and fires again as it starts to fall, instead of waiting for fixed on and off points. It makes fast repeated inputs and quick stops cleaner. All nine AULA magnetic boards have it.
Short for Simultaneous Opposing Cardinal Directions. When two opposite keys such as A and D are held together, the board sends one clear direction, usually the most recent, instead of both. Whether a game or event allows it is up to its publisher or organiser, so check the current rules.
One key performs different actions at different depths of the same press. A light press could do one thing and a full press another, and the release can trigger a third. It lets a single key carry more than one job.
A key does one thing when tapped and another when held. A common use is a key that types normally on a tap but acts as Shift or Ctrl when held, which is handy on compact layouts.
Press once and the key stays held; press again and it releases. Useful for actions you would otherwise have to hold down for a long time.
Similar in spirit to DKS: several trigger points along the travel of one key, each able to send its own input.
AULA lists both on some boards but does not describe them on the product pages, so read the description inside the driver before relying on either.
For most players, no. Rapid Trigger and adjustable actuation are the features that change how a board feels in fast games, and the WIN68 HE has both. The extra modes are powerful but niche, and plenty of people never touch them. If you know you want SOCD or DKS, step up to the WIN68 MAX, which shares the same 65% layout.
The AG75, with the full set plus macros, set in the browser-based web HUB. The HERO 75 HE comes close, missing Rapid Switch and macros from the AG75's list, and it is the only one of these boards that also goes wireless.
All nine magnetic boards carry a 2 Years Local Warranty at Evetech. Line them up in the gaming keyboards category, and swap in new magnetic switches from the keyboard switches range if you want to change the feel.
Dynamic Keystrokes: one key performing different actions at different depths of a single press.
Tap the key for its normal character, hold it to act as a modifier such as Shift or Ctrl.
Toggle latches a key on with one press and off with the next. AULA names Rapid Switch but does not describe it on its pages, so check the driver.
Both AG75 editions list it, and so does the tri-mode HERO 75 HE.
It lacks SOCD, DKS and Mod-Tap, but keeps Rapid Trigger and per-key actuation, which matter most.
The AG75, with every mode above plus macros.

Windows transparency effects can be switched off to make supported backgrounds more opaque. Use Accessibility, Visual effects or the colour settings, then compare a menu against your wallpaper. This R0 preference changes appearance; it is not a promised.
Windows title bar window shake can minimise other open windows when you shake the active window by its title bar. Inspect the Multitasking setting and switch it off if that gesture interrupts your work. The preference costs R0 and does not require new hardware.
