LogicKeyboard Avid Media Composer 'Pro' ASTRA2 MAC US

The LogicKeyboard Avid Media Composer 'Pro' ASTRA2 MAC US is a full-size 108-key keyboard designed for Avid Media Composer users working on Mac systems. Its 135 shortcut commands are presented through color-coded and labeled keys, including split-key functions that place multiple commands on individual keys for quicker reference during editing sessions.

The ASTRA 2 PRO uses a scissor-switch mechanism with 3.5 mm key travel and includes a full-sized F-row, multimedia controls, five levels of white backlighting, and a fixed USB-A connection. An integrated USB-A 3.0 port provides an additional connection point for compatible workstation peripherals, making the keyboard a practical fit for dedicated Avid edit bays and post-production rooms.

Why It Helps

Avid Media Composer operators rely heavily on keyboard commands for trimming, playback, timeline navigation, and general editorial work. The 135 labeled shortcuts keep those functions visible at the desk, while the split-key design places multiple commands on selected keys and reduces the need to stop and search through menus.

The five-level backlight is useful in edit rooms where ambient lighting changes between normal working conditions and darker monitoring environments. Editors can adjust the white illumination to keep the key legends readable without making the keyboard unnecessarily bright during long sessions.

The fixed USB-A connection suits permanent edit bays, while the integrated USB-A 3.0 port provides an additional connection point directly at the keyboard. Combined with the full-size layout and 3.5 mm scissor-switch travel, the ASTRA 2 PRO is well suited to regular day-to-day operation in Mac-based Avid environments.
