Please see below.

I got it in 2013.  It says only Deathadder on the back nothing about
chroma.

Yep, that would be the classic.

I'm no gamer and never have been, but:

I'm not either, but being able to change a bunch of stuff was why I got it (also, because the left-handed version feels comfortable, and the side buttons moved to the right side, so they stayed under the thumb).

Also the manual and addjustments depends on havins specific software
installed and it is organized poorly in my opinion.  Such things as
finding out what the default settings on each button appear to be
nearly impossible especially without their specific software.

The Synapse software is fairly useful. I already had it installed because I bought a Battlefield 4 keyboard for the solid mechanical keys. The squishy ones didn't give me the feedback I need to know when my tremours cause a double hit.

In the Synapse manual, you're wanting to click on the Customization tab, and select the button you want to assign this functionality to. Change the function to "Sensitivity", and follow the text on Page 12. I'm guessing you may want "On-The-Fly Sensitivity", about half-way down the page.

Of course, Synapse doesn't run under the OI host OS, but then the Deathadder works just like a normal mouse. I've had no problems with it under Open Indiana (nor the various Linuxes I've used it on, for that matter).

I'm finding that moving to the Razer mouse has been very worthwhile, and it's already lasted longer than the Microsnot or Logitech mice I was using before. They kept going belly up on me, and I'm not hard on my equipment at all. I'm not going to be looking back.
