Introduction

Mountain came out of seemingly nowhere and seriously impressed us with their innovative take on a modular keyboard last year. The Everest Max in particular won many an award from the press, including from us, with its removable/swappable number pad, onboard display keys, and even a separate media dock to make for a keyboard that has five displays you can use in a variety of manners. Then came the cut-down Mountain Everest 60 earlier this year—another modular concept using a 60% keyboard as the base unit and another, smaller, number pad that could once again be used on the left or right side as desired. I was certainly curious as to what would be next from Mountain, today we find out in the form of new modules.

If you are looking to acquire more keys and displays, then the new Mountain KeyPads should be of interest to you. There are two new units in the form of a macro pad, aptly named MacroPad, and a more expensive display key unit called DisplayPad, both of which launch the day this article goes live. These are standalone units that do not require an existing Mountain keyboard to use, yet the company has made sure to engineer the body to fit onto the Everest Max or Core units too. This does mean that Everest 60 owners, who arguably would like more keys and displays over the larger Everest Max, are in the same boat as pretty much everyone else who owns another brand’s keyboard, except of course with unified software support on their side. There’s a lot to cover here as we go through both units kindly provided by Mountain to TechPowerUp! Be sure to click twice on the respective thumbnails below for the full-size images.
