What it is
Cosmic Byte Orbit is a free browser configurator for compatible Cosmic Byte peripherals. It lets owners remap buttons and keys, create macros, adjust DPI and sensitivity, set RGB lighting and polling rates, and tune controller stick, trigger, vibration, and motion settings. Supported devices can store profiles, and the portal provides guided firmware updates. Listed live devices include Helios and Velox mice, the Phantom TKL keyboard, and Lumora, Ares Pro, Drakon, Blitz, and Stellaris controllers. Orbit works on Windows, macOS, and Linux desktops; Linux and some devices require the free Cosmic Byte Connect helper. The portal requires a desktop Chromium browser such as Chrome or Edge, plus a USB or 2.4 GHz dongle connection. Bluetooth-only setup, Safari, Firefox, and mobile browsers are unsupported. Configuration can start without an account, while signing in enables account storage and syncing for settings and profiles. Some controllers may not be configurable on macOS, whereas controller support is described as full on Windows and Linux.
