How to configure Razer Chroma

2. Download Twinkly Chroma connector and Razer Synapse 3
To start enjoying the integration between Twinkly and Razer Chroma, the next step is to download the Twinkly Chroma connector and Razer Synapse 3:
- DOWNLOAD Twinkly Chroma Connector
- DOWNLOAD Razer Synapse 3
Twinkly Chroma Connector allows users to connect the entire RGB and RGB+W range of Twinkly products to Razer Chroma™ RGB and enabled games.
Available exclusively on Razer Synapse 3, the Twinkly Chroma Connector extends the gaming experience beyond the screen with responsive lighting effects triggered by events in the game.
Please note that the integration is compatible with all LEDs profiles, including AWW, but we do not recommend it, because the feature of Razer Chroma is to syncronize all the LEDs you have on a rgb spectrum.
Aww doesn't have it so, we suggest using the Twinkly App.

Once you’ve added and configured your Twinkly devices using the Twinkly App, you can manage them via the Twinkly Chroma connector.

Important note:
Please remeber that Razer and Twinkly app cannot be open at the same time.
When using Razer, so make sure the app is not open in backgroud either.
Each Twinkly device or group can be illuminated by choosing from several modes:
- Master : synchronize all devices to one channel, all lights turn on the same color and change in sync.
- Chanel 1-4 : choose to use one of the 4 channels individually.
This allows you to set up multiple Twinkly devices in 4 different sections, so the effect you create on the Razer Chroma spread across these 4 channels and allowing the Razer Chroma to reproduce more colors at the same time .
Please note that each Twinkly device can be set to one channel only.
- Automatic: the app will automatically and evenly distribute the 4 channels to all connected Twinkly devices.
In automatic mode the layout of the device is divided into 4 vertical zones (like a flag) and each channel lights one zone, from left (channel 1) to right (channel 4).
