    You can set this thing up to do pretty much anything. I was able to program a button for it to bring me coffee while I am mixing in the studio. Just kidding about the coffee button. But, that would be a great feature to add - (Are you listening Elgato guys?) This is an awesome edition to any system that you use where you wish you could simplify things you do all the time. Such as; I need to open the thing and have the thing go to number one then turn on number six in that order and set the level of number six to -14dB. All by pressing only one button. Yes, You can! Get ready to edit some XML code. Its easy. Really, it is. If I can do it. I know that you can, too. There is a ton of support out there on formats like YouTube and/or the Elgato site. I use it with Pro Tools and also my ATEM Mini Pro for doing zoom lessons when I teach. I have set up macros to do the things that would normally take multiple button presses. It make life easy and better. Get one. You wont hate it.

    This amazingly versatile controller allows me to manage a lot of whats important to me: controls in zoom meetings, timers, app launching, etc. The one down side is that launching Google Assistant routines is beyond the capabilities of most, a point which is not made clear in the description. However, its still a great controller to have on my desktop!

    This 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.

    Using the folders option you can optimize the use of this thing even if you arent a streamer. You can load this thing up with options such as game launchers or use it to control your discord chat; or even use it to launch favorite web pages.

    I have to say that I love this thing. I read a majority of the reviews here on Amazon before I placed my order, and I can say that 95% of the complaints in other reviews are unwarranted. Complaints others have had: - Short/Fixed USB Cable :: I dont understand this one. Every single wired keyboard and mouse Ive ever owned had a fixed cable of the same length. If it doesnt work for you, neither do your mouse and keyboard. - LCD ripples when you press buttons :: Try not pressing buttons like a 200lb gorilla. Mine doesnt ripple unless I really try to make it do so. - Theres no built-in functions for MYSOFTWARE :: ... This one annoys me greatly. Its built for streaming software. It literally has STREAM in the name. That said, you can set up custom key binds with custom images for the keys all you want. They work great. I have mine doing a dozen functions that technically arent supported for OBS, Photoshop, and several other programs. - It feels cheap/cheaply made :: What planet these people live on is beyond me... This thing is amazingly well built. - Theres a long delay when I press buttons! :: Try not streaming on a potato. Mine works beautifully. Any delay is on the users end. (too much BS running in the background/slow computer) - Its overpriced! :: If you think this is overpriced, you havent looked at similar products. Programmable keypads with similar functions (with NO LCD) are just as/more expensive. - Theres only one LCD, its not individual displays for each key! :: Who cares? It functions and looks great in the process. My Complaints: - Fairly minimal native OBS options. This is easily overcome with custom key binds, it would have just been nice to have things like mute mic built-in. - Always on display. It really needs to pick up on when the PC display shuts off due to inactivity and do the same. (or shut off when the computer is locked, either way) The TLDR: Its great. It works beautifully for streaming, and just as well as a general productivity helper. I dont regret ordering mine and I doubt anybody else will either.

    It really depends on your use case. As basically a button pad for macros, it looks cool and works well. Whether or not you’ll get a lot of value really depends on the apps and how often you use hotkeys. Some of the apps from their store don’t work completely. For instance, the YouTube live monitoring on mine doesn’t work. Just has a pretty icon. Running on MacMini M1 btw. Perhaps it’s a OS thing.

    I bought this primarily to use while playing an online game where I can control several other characters. I created macros in the game and use this to trigger the macros. I created little icons to use for each key press so that I can quickly identify what I need to press. I have to say that this works VERY well. It also has many 3rd party apps for it, one of which I use a lot which allows more advanced macros and includes options for short button press vs long press to send different commands to the computer. So this definitely lived up to my hopes for gaming. I can also see how amazing this would be for streaming and other application uses as it provides a easily identifiable array of buttons to press for different actions within your software. From a construction perspective, this is a nice solid piece of gear. It has an anti slip base and feels very solid. The buttons have just the right amount of force required to activate. It looks very sharp and the button displays are each very clear and bright (brightness is controllable too). Elgato really nailed it with this device and its a must have for so many uses. I cant wait to discover other uses for it in my daily gaming and application use.

    This concept of a device is such a magnificent device. I shall tell people that it is not only for live streamers but for anyone with a productive mindset. I use the device as a quick launch and a quick system button organization. The many abilities of this device are amazing, and as I add folders such as a stream control, work apps button, quick launch favorite apps, audio controls, quick game launch, and more! If I can give this more than 5 stars I will. Kudos to the thought process of this product and keep the amazing advancements going. I believe the only thing I would complain about would be the price. There arent any primary alternatives unless you are okay with a mobile app, and or love DIY. Although that aside it was very worth it, and I strongly suggest this to business professionals, high school/college students, leaders, and anyone who loves organization!
