Where Does Bazecor Store Keyboard Layers?

Bazecor keeps Dygma keyboard layers, macros, and lighting in local app data with firmware flashing onboard. Export layers as JSON for backup.

Last updated

Bazecor tunes Dygma keyboards from the desktop. Layers with keymaps, macros, superkeys, and per-layer lighting live in local app data. Firmware flashes onto the keyboard from the same app.

That makes JSON exports the portable unit plus app data as backup number two. Exact paths may vary by version. The keyboard keeps the active layers onboard, so travel needs no software at all. Superkeys stack actions per tap. Leader keys chain shortcuts smartly. Capsule lighting reacts per layer. Test all keys.

Where Bazecor stores this, by platform

Windows
%appdata%\Bazecor\

Layers in app data with JSON export for backup. Exact paths may vary by version. Onboard layers cover travel without software.

macOS
~/Library/Application Support/Bazecor/

Same layer model as Windows. Export JSON before firmware updates. Keep one sane layer onboard.

Linux
~/.config/Bazecor/

Same layout as other platforms. Device access may need udev rules. JSON exports migrate everything.

Frequently asked questions

How do I back up Dygma layers?

Open Bazecor and export each layer to JSON files for safekeeping. Firmware updates preserve layers but back up first anyway. Import JSON on the new machine to restore everything.

How do I update keyboard firmware?

Connect over USB and use the firmware update section with the keyboard idle. Keep the cable steady until it finishes. Test every layer after flashing major versions.
