> 3 dayGame-Changing Product for Content Creators. If you stream, this is an amazing product. I stream regularly, nearly every single day, and I use this in my streams every single time. From changing scenes, to adding in effects, this is a must have for those people who want to bring their streams into a higher production level. In addition, you can use this peripheral with other programs, other macros, and can easily replace your media center. Whether you use OBS, Elgato products, or more, there is a way you can do nearly everything with this product. My only word of wisdom is to make sure that however you set up the StreamDeck, make sure that you ALWAYS back up your format of your stream deck before you update. (Sometimes the updates will erase your settings) If you take care of that, and spend some time exploring, you can really expand your professionalism and quality of your streams with some great effects, music cues and more. I Cant imagine going back. If you stream, and want to take it up a notch, pick this up.

> 3 dayDidn’t use the small one too often until I started using voice mod. So small I needed an upgrade for more space. Great upgrade to my battle station.

Greater than one weekThere are plenty of rave reviews on the way this operates. I agree so no need to repeat. HOWEVER, it has a design issue in that it does not work plugged into a USB hub. Had to plug it directly into computer. This lead to my next issue, i have a standing desk and keep my PC on the floor. I had to get an extended USB cable (not big deal). The back of the device, the usb plugs in horizontally. Not my first choice as i would rather it come unplugged rather than than bending or damaging the plug if it got yanked on. So the THIRD issue is that Im finding it difficult to find a flexible cable, even with the 90 degreee angle thats flexible enough to make the turn and stay inside the stand. I even tried a 90 degree adapter, but the plug has too little room for one to fit. My issue may be unique, but thats why I gave it 4 out of 5 stars.

> 3 dayI do not use this for gaming or for music/ videos but as a hot button solution for mY daily work task. With little experience I was able to set up hot buttons to open files and websites with one click. It saves me a lot of time and has increased productivity.

> 3 daySignificantly better than I expected it to be. Having this Stream Deck is such a quality of life improvement when it comes to streaming. Also, it actually feels high quality. The customization options are amazing and will greatly reduce the amount of time spent preparing each stream I have. Now, I only have to hit 3 buttons on my Deck and im good to go. Users with only one monitor will benefit from this the most I believe as with this stream deck, you no longer need to alt-tab out of your game to change things on OBS. You also dont have to worry about setting keybinding for OBS and accidentally hitting them while youre live. Users with Multiple monitors will also benefit from this as well. I personally have two monitors and still found this Stream Deck amazing. Being able to do pretty much everything stream related on my Stream Deck is the best and its so nice that I no longer need to do stuff on my second monitor. I can finally only use it for showing chat.

> 3 dayThis is a review of the Elgato Stream Deck (USB 2.0) (Measures 118 x 84 x 21mm or 4.6” x 3.3” x .8”, is approx.. 6.7oz and is compatible with Windows 10 (64 bit) and macOS 10.11 or later.) Summary – While I am not using this for the intended purpose, I love this thing. I essentially have it programmed for my 15 most commonly used applications instead of for streaming applications. Unlike the competition, this one has amazing LCD keys while the others are limited to backlit keys. Being able to change each photo key to whatever I want them to be is great and the clarity looks very nice. Since this gets its power from the USB port, there is no extra power cable to worry about. The best part is that I do not need to use any of the Elgato capture cards to use this. It would just integrate very easily with them if you need to. Key features. 15 LCD Keys – You can customize each key separately. Each LCD uses 72 x 72 pixels. (.jpg or .png is recommended, but should also work with .bmp or .xpm) You can also adjust the brightness of the keys within the software. I have used various sized photos up to 512 x 512 with no problems at all. So far it appears you can go larger in size if you maintain the ratio. (Height and Width being the same size.) The keys have a nice feel to them and it feels like a semi hard gel I guess. It is not a hard plastic feel. The button has a noticeable depress sensation when being used is smooth and I do not have any issues with it not working quickly. This has been very reliable so far. The stand is pretty straight forward. Does not seem to be overly sturdy, but would be considered sturdy for a general use in where the stream deck does not get moved around a lot. The stand also has several notches so you can adjust it to the angle of your choice. If you want to use without the stand, you can do that as well. If you need to, this has the ability to do two functions at the same time with the touch of a single button. Just drag a second function over onto the same key to do this. You can link actions to Elgato Game Capture, OBS, Twitch, Twitter, TipeeeStream, and others. The included software is very straight forward and easy to use. The software allows you to fine tune everything and gives you a preview of your keys as you work on the setup – changes. The software allows you to use websites, launch programs, use hotkeys, create folders to have separate categories such as games, multimedia controls, etc. The software can be setup to auto update which is nice. Taking one star away as the cable should be separate. They could have designed this with a normal micro usb port. This way we could use our own custom length cables. The way it is now, the cable may be too long or short for what you need and if you damage the cable in any fashion, the unit is pretty much shot unless you pay to get it rewired. As with all my reviews, I will update this review should this develop any issues with ongoing use.
