On certain Corsair keyboards, the designation “WM” typically refers to a profile setting specifically configured for web browsing and media playback. This profile optimizes the keyboard’s functionality to provide quick access to common commands used while navigating the internet or enjoying multimedia content. For example, custom key assignments might include controls for volume, play/pause, or forward/back navigation within a browser or media player.
The inclusion of a dedicated web and media profile offers users increased convenience and efficiency. By remapping keys to frequently used functions, it reduces the need to use a mouse or navigate through menus, streamlining the user experience. This feature originated from the growing demand for enhanced multimedia control from computer users, especially gamers and content creators who often switch between gaming and media consumption.
