OpenRGB 1.1 for Mac
Mac UtilitiesMost lit hardware ships with its own control program, so four brands can mean four apps running at once. OpenRGB takes a different route. This free and open source tool talks directly to supported keyboards, mice, memory kits, graphics cards, motherboards and light strips, and lets you set colours and effects for all of them in one place. Support depends on the exact model, so check the supported devices list first.
Key Features
- Controls lit hardware from many brands inside a single window
- Saved profiles so each setup loads with a couple of clicks
- Per device zones and colours for detailed, layered lighting looks
- Plugin support that adds extra effects and hardware sync options
- An SDK that lets other programs drive your lighting setup

System Requirements
OpenRGB runs on macOS, Windows and Linux, and needs no account and no maker software beside it. What matters most is your hardware. Each device is classed as fully supported, partly supported or unsupported on the project site, and partly supported gear may offer brightness and static colour only.
FAQs
Is OpenRGB free?
Yes. It is open source software that you download and use without paying, and there is no subscription or paid tier.
Will it control every lit device I own?
Not always. Support is built device by device using reverse engineered protocols, so look up each model on the supported devices page before you rely on it.
Can I save different lighting setups?
Yes. Profiles store colours and effects, so you can switch between a calm work look and a bright gaming look fast.
