I compare:
1. 0:00 Profile of both of them - how low/high the profiles are
2. 1:50 Buttons - which ones are more comfortable
3. 4:04 How I mapped the buttons (along with customised scrolling
3. 6:07 Scrolling mechanism
4. 9:08 What would be the best trackball
5. 10:09 A little info about software and speed & acceleration settings
Kensington should see this video and make improvements. Thanks for posting.
It was very helpful to hear your years of experience, your tips and advice, thank you.
Thank you for this review. All these little details that you discuss that many would consider insignificant are "important" for someone like me who is using the computer all day every day for decades :) GREAT JOB!!!
Thank you for this brother - people like you make the world a better place (not sarcastic honestly - not many people pay attention to this important topic of ergo)
exactly what i was looking for, thanks.
Thank you for this review. I've used the Export Mouse for over 8 years now the scrolling has always been an issue. It's not comfortable and the wheel collects dust and dirt very easily. It seems the Slimblade has perfected it.
Detailed information regarding scrolling is very useful !!
Thank you so much for this review super helpful. I was surprised by your finally choice. It felt like you liked everything better on the expert apart from the scroll. Maybe doing an upgrade wrist rest for the expert would fix the angle and make it perfect.
Thank you man!!! You helped me a lot! Perfect explication, perfect video.
Helpful video, thanks for sharing!
Great tip on using KensingtonWorks for mapping the buttons to scroll without the annoying ring!
Great video. Im comvinced for the slimblade over pro.
Great review and comparison. I've been using a Slimblade for a while and a couple microswitches worn out. I'm trying to decide if I should replace them or consider the Expert. I have really liked the Slimblade for the most part.
Good review... Thanks!
Thanks, just what I was wanting to know. The only thing missing maybe, is a demonstration of the loudness of the clicking. I've been using the Kensington Expert one for a while now, the scroll wheel is exactly like you said. It's quite clunky and the sound of the plastic rubbing together can be heard if you don't use it with the consistent dexterity of an android, lol. And anyone on the fence about these two trackballs, who the loudness is important to? The buttons on the expert are loud! And if you slide your finger off a button while it's pressed, and let it pop back up, it literally sounds like a spring from a cartoon, "boingoingoingoing!" The only other thing I don't like about either of them, and in my opinion, am really sick of, is having only black or something similar being the only color available. Even if you don't have light colored pets like I do, dark colors are just dust magnets, and can start to look dirty pretty quickly. Anyway, thanks again for your review. I like how highly detailed you were in everything you explained.
Hi, thank you for your video. I found it really useful. I'm still on the fence about getting a trackball for my music production work. Can I ask you a question? How did you get KZhead to divide your timeline into sections? Many thanks.
Great and very, very usefull video. Thank you.
hey Pako! great review! I was wondering what program you used on the expert in order to use the trackball to scroll
Thanks a lot for this !
Hi, how did you override the scroll, can you share the link?, Thank you
Thanks for the angle wow!!!
Thank you.. super useful. You validated a lot of my awkward moments with the Expert Mouse. Which sw did you use for the upper right button?
Pako, can you compare please slimblade vs elecom huge. Or maybe you have done opinion about elecom huge?
Thank you man! I'm looking for a trackball and thus review is very useful.
Thank you for this review, I have bought the slimblade due your demostration video. What is the program you have used for overiding the upper right button in order to scroll in 2D?, thanks in advance.
I’d love to know too!
Why doesn't your Kinsington expert have a track bar around the ball? I haven't seen your model. Can you share? Thanks
I use the Slimblade in my recording studio and it is an indispensable tool. Thank you for sharing your experience.
i'm getting one. not the expert
how precise is it when adjusting knobs on your plugins? im considering getting one for my music production it seems like it might be amazing
@@Digitt6 The trackball definitely does take some getting used to. Especially, when releasing the trackball at the desired location.
@@PeterBatah do you have to hold the mouse click while adjusting a knob or does the slimblade allow you to toggle the click to keep it held?
@@Digitt6 What I can tell you is that when making adjustments to the potentiometers in SSL channel strip for example I do have to left click + rotate track ball simultaneously. Perhaps there is a way to have the left/right buttons locked but I have not looked into that to be honest with you. I will take a closer look at the settings in KensingtonWorks when I have some free time.
Thank you!
Thanks a lot!
where do you suggest to buy it from europe ?
Thanks Pako!
best review
Nice vid mate
Have you tried the Elecom HUGE?
What's the wrist rest you're using with the Slimblade? Looks comfy
Did you find out?
@@zeemanmemon5329 nope. I've been using the slimblade without one just fine, between two halves of a split keyboard
why not use the DIY wrist rest for Pro?
Благодарю!
Will they work on Linux?
Does the Expert wrist rest fit on the SlimBlade?
No
dobre review. Czy ja dobrze zrozumiałem ze jak ustawisz 1/10 czułości to trackball slimblade jest ciut za szybki?
I have no idea why would anyone make such a big slope on that trackball. The reason I buy a trackball is to save my wrist. So why would I want a sharp slope?
You could probably build yourself a top edge extrusion on the slimblade to brace your fingertips on without clicking.
You should have an affiliate link, I would have used it.
agreed. The scrolling on the expert is absolute junk. It should be on ball bearings so you can flick it and let if scroll fast. It's so slow the way it is, and feels grindy and cheap trash. Think I might try the slim blade - the scrolling seems like a great idea
Great vid thank you!
Should try Logitech marble with xmouse control and you would get 4 button, configurable buttons, very easy scrolling, 0 wrist angie, more space on desktop.
