It depends on the manufacturer. In the extremely low-budget keyboard, there are only some keys on the keyboard that are used to change the color. In other keyboards, you can change the color of individual keys using the software for that specific keyboard. Many budget keyboard software are only functional in Windows, they do not work in other operating systems. Mid-budget to High-End LED keyboards have the software working in both Windows and Mac Operating systems. There are some other systems are also available to change the color of the LED keyboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article, we will first talk in general and then we will mention the process for some specific keyboards. Hopefully, you will find your answer to &#8220;Can I change the color of my LED keyboard?&#8221; or &#8220;How can I change the color of my LED keyboard?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"for-extremely-budget-keyboard-no-software\">For Extremely Budget Keyboard: No Software<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Keyboards whose price is less than $30, may not have software to control the RGB. They are made with some fixed effects of RGB lighting and you can change the colors within those effects using some keys on the keyboard.
