Corsair K70 Rapidfire RGB Media Keys

Hello,

 

I want to order a Corsair K70 Rapidfire RGB. I am not so much a fan of Corsair peripherals because they are a little expensive for my taste.
I would like to order that keyboard, because it is not as wide as my current keyboard the Steelseries Apex, which I own for more than two years now.
Also I want to get a keyboard with mechanical switches. So I said, f*** it, I'll get the Corsair one with these Cherry MX Speed switches.

So here is my question:
I use spotify and foobar2000 for listening to music while gaming. With my Steelseries Apex I can use the media Keys (Play/Pause, Next Song, Last Song, Vol+/-) while in game.
Does this also work with the Media Keys of the K70? Does anyone have some experiences with the corsair Software?

 

Sorry for any bad english, I hope i didn't make any major mistakes (spelling/grammar).

Already thanks to the LTT community.

wow, that was quick, thank you :-)

 

EDIT: The keyboard arrived last week on wednesday. I had some time to test it and I can control spotify and VLC with the media keys while ingame.
