What is the "Ripple Control" feature in the software?

Ripple control in gaming mice is a feature that smooths out mouse cursor movements at high CPI (counts per inch) settings. Its primary purpose is to reduce jitter and make mouse tracking appear more fluid, especially when using very high sensitivity settings.

However, it's important to note that ripple control achieves this smoothing effect by recalculating mouse input, which introduces a small delay in cursor movement. This delay, while potentially beneficial for tasks requiring smooth tracking, can be detrimental in fast-paced gaming scenarios that demand quick reactions, such as first-person shooters.

For competitive gamers, especially those playing FPS games, it's generally recommended to keep ripple control turned off to avoid any input lag that could affect performance.

We recommend enabling Ripple Control only for very high DPI settings where jitter is an issue. For lower to moderate DPI settings, it may introduce unnecessary motion delay without significant benefits.
