Hi Gaming Careers! Thanks for all your videos helping the community (: I have a unique problem that seems to be common in the community. Basically, in OBS Studio, if Noise Supression is on, it mutes my controller clicks (which is great) but cancels out my higher pitched noises like laughs and screams. I can't seem to make it work the way I'd like with just a Noise Gate. I have a white snowball mic. Active filters include: Noise suppression, compressor, gain, limiter and noise gate and I have narrowed it down to just Noise Suppression being the issue.
Started streaming only recently after years of not being able to. Your channel is certainly one of the most qualitative in stream education on TH-cam. Keep up the good work, congrats.
I know this is an older video, but as an owner of a c920, you are correct. This just saved me 2 minutes of irritation to the point where I sometimes didn't even fix it. Thanks!
I’m using my stream deck as a numpad, soundboard, voice changer, volume controler, mic controler, media volume controller, FPS monitor, GpU and CPU Temp monitor and probably a few things I’m forgetting
I probably use the profile switcher a lot. Since being a streamer and content creator, you might need certain things for recording that you would for streaming. By a click of a button, it will have the secondary profile pop up. Have the stuff you need to record and you could even have the third option for the editor you use without having to worry about pressing the wrong button.
I'm an educator that streams over various platforms and use multiple tools and was wondering about this device. Operating system, worth the cost, ease of use and so on. You made a compelling case for me to purchase. Thank you.
I'm not a streamer, but use a Stream Deck as a productivity tool at work. The Windows Mover tip is going to save me so much time - wish I'd known about this a long time ago! Thanks for all the great tips!
This is super helpful , means I'll actually have to stop procrastinating and actually start streaming again , because this sorts out one of my biggest problems , the arrangements of windows on my second monitor with the push of a button!
Just a heads up for any MMO players that stream, F13-F24 is actually accessible via Shift+F1 through Shift+F12 (for example, Shift+F5 is F17). So if you have those setup for anything in the game, lookout for that.
I was looking for this exact setup for switching between audio devices, and the extended Function key setup is pure genius! Thank you so much! Looking forward to a Part 2!
Welcome to this stream deck video. Today, we are talking about how awesome Bar Raider is! Seriously though, he's a great guy! Very chill. Excellent video!
I love this! Part of my problem, is that I'm 72 but have done live satilite broadcast as both a producer, on-camera talent (especially from war zones) but all this is so new to me. I'm starting a show called DIARY OF A GONZO FILM MAKER. I'm going to be cutting to lots of "roll-in's from various movies I've made. That's the main thing I need from Elgato. I plan to use 2 of the incredible ZV E-10's and yes, I need Cam Control... will it work on Mac? I have so many questions and you're the best expert I've found.
This makes me happy - always keep learning! What's the latest on your show? Just searched for it and didn't find anything. I'd be interested to give it a watch.
@Mickey Grant. Little tip. When asking a youtuber a question put @then there channel name so they see it as a direct message. As you can imagine when you have 1000s of subs and 100s of comments they won't read them all. Have a great day
Excellent video. The only problem I have and I am probably doing it wrong or do not understand how to do it. Using the stream deck for sound bites during a stream I hear it through my speakers and my mic pics it up so the viewers hear it. But is there a way to do it through the stream like when we play music? That would be a very helpful video.
Thank you so much for this! 😁 Would you consider making a short video on how to set the Weather on the Elgato Stream Deck? I can't seem to get the API settings right and very confusing... 😪
awesome video. one thing I do with my 'going live' button is make it a multi-action switch so that i have actions for stream ending like setting twitter name back, turning off studio lights and playing ending music.
I have a GoXLR and find that rather than switching audio devices between speakers and microphone I just use the line out on the GoXLR to my speakers and have a dedicated fader for both headphones and microphone. I usually have one muted and exclusively use GoXLR to control everything. I had the setup with StreamDeck previously with Audio Switcher but find this new approach much simpler and even quicker.
3:18 App volume device preference is an AWESOME tipp, or in other words: I was today years old when I learned you can predefine which input and output each software uses per default! Why is this so time and nerve saving? Often times I connect to a teams or teamspeak or what ever call and my inputs and outputs are all over the place, but hopefully not anymore :D
I was using the paid iOS app for a few months to see if I'd REALLY use the Stream Deck. The app was a bit frustrating with it's Wifi connectivity so I just took the plunge on the Stream Deck - easily one of the best tech decisions I've made in a long time. I bought the XL and am VERY happy with it.
@@seancasgamer I can't see any downside to buying one, it looks to be a nice bit of kit to. Loupedeck looks nice to but I like the streamdeck for the buttons. What size did you buy?
For any features you wish you had that you don't you can expand the power of this device (or your keyboard, desktop, etc) 1000 fold just by integrating AHK or AutoIT Scripts. Some things can be improved, example the Window Position, rather than using a delay to wait for an application before moving the window, in AutoIT its as simple as ShellExecute() or Run() to open the application and then waiting with If ProcessExists() or WinWait() so it will be sub millisecond accurate without any raw delays, then you can add in error correction to close the process and re-open it should it hang, etc. I have used Automation like this for years, even when I was on the dev team for XSplit, and I just use keyboard hotkey combos or GUI's but I think I'll finally get one of these just for the pretty buttons lol. If you do not have the Twitch API ping yet, that can be something I look into making once I get mine.
Here's how you can get Discord to open up on the monitor you want: 1. Move it to the window you want 2. Make sure Discord *is not* fullscreened or maximized (it should be a window) 3. Close Discord from the system tray 4. Discord should now open on the monitor you want! 5. Optionally maximize Discord after opening it, then close from the system tray and reopen to make it remember the changes
Thank you for this. I've had a stream deck for months, but pretty much use it in a basic way. This will make my life so much easier. Just subscribed to this channel, because I've watched the past couple of months and it's really been helpful in moving forward as a content creator in so many ways. Thank you for all the hard work and sharing your knowledge with us.
Honestly, I'd love a video of all the things that should be considered when you have one of these and how to set them up properly and how to manipulate them. When I start streaming I really want one but they seem really complicated so an in depth walkthrough and explanation of how things work not just how to use them would be amazing.
Looks great and advanced enough to me. Have you done a similar video for Loupedeck Live and preferably on the MACINTOSH platform? I bet that would be a bit more complex.
Great Tips. I use a bunch of these already & also use my stream deck for Effects during certain events like Sub Goals & such. I’m always trying to improve my stream. ❤️👍
Along with normal stream control stuff, I use the Advanced Launcher plugin to run Packet Sender with the appropriate options to change Input/Output mappings on my HDMI Matrix Switch. Along with my monitors, one of the outputs is an Atomos Connect 4k that is connected to my Gaming/Streaming PC as the capture source for my streaming. This allows me to quickly and easily capture any source on the HDMI Matrix Switch (including of course the Gaming PC output used for games).
This is exactly what I needed to see today!! I will definitely be implementing a lot of these tips into my own stream, thanks man and keep up the great work! 🙏
Love the multi action function, I sometimes forget that I mute mic on stream starting scene and brb scene. Made every scene change to be multi action that changes mic on or off so I won't forget that for some stupid reason. And with timers help even made multi action scene change with own "commercial" for some occasions.
I LOVED that last tip on multi actions. Once I get used to things I'll certainly be using that :) Can I ask what is probably a dumb question though, please? Ok...say I've got a button on my stream deck with the Twitch logo on - titled STREAM - that I would like to when it's used then display a set of buttons I can use whilst streaming, and then have another button to hit to go back to the basic layout I used before streaming? How do I do that on the stream deck? Hope this makes sense...if anyone can answer this PLEASE DO! I need all the help I can get.
Easy, just create a folder - that's included in the Stream Deck software under the Stream Deck tab, then just change the icon with a one that you have created yourself / found on the internet, you can also directly create one from the elgato website by clicking the small downward arrow and then "Create an icon". Then inside this folder you will automatically have a return button.
Hi! Great video, these are some super useful tips! Could you please explain how you configure the Multi Action Panic item for muting your OBS alerts? Thank you!!
Informative video sir! Also I think you do actually have those F keys (F13-25) You press and hold Shift and then the corresponding F1-12 key to generate the F13-24
I finally took the plunge on a stream deck. Started with the 6-key version to see how I like it. Not even one day has passed, and after watching videos like this, I realize I definitely need more buttons 😂 so I’m gonna go get the 15-key
@@vangeeson I got the XL and even on that I have folders 📂 especially one for tailor-made shoutouts when I notice some larger content creators in my chat. It's nice just to add that personal touch rather than !username if you get me.
I set up a kill switch for each game I have a folder for. Once I'm done playing, just hit one button to kill the app as if I had ended the process through the task manager. Much more convenient than doing it through the in-game menus and Alt+F4 doesn't always work.
Great video. Thanks for the tips. I’m new to the Stream Deck, but I’m loving it for productivity. When I look for Windows Mover, it’s not showing up in my native store app. When I search for it in my internet browser I can find it, but it won’t download on my Deck. Any tips for what might be the issue? Thanks in advance.
Awesome video, thank you for the tips! Regarding audio switcher, I've noticed when I switch it not all programs seem to follow suit, with some audio coming out of my speakers. Would I need to toggle between the two in each program or is there something I'm missing?

Arranging apps, count downs and death counters would be awesome

Your doing Lofi stream
I know this is an older video, but as an owner of a c920, you are correct. This just saved me 2 minutes of irritation to the point where I sometimes didn't even fix it. Thanks!
This is VERY helpful for some of us OG Stream Deck users who have not yet dug deeply into the new SD plugins in the 5.x SD software and store.
I’m using my stream deck as a numpad, soundboard, voice changer, volume controler, mic controler, media volume controller, FPS monitor, GpU and CPU Temp monitor and probably a few things I’m forgetting

Very informative. I like that you can fire up all the stream stuff with one or two buttons.

That raid plug-in is fantastic. Such a headache to raid, otherwise.
yeah but it creates a profile which you can't switch back to the other profiles once on it when using profile switcher.
Thank you so much. I am definitely going to be taking advantage of a couple of these. I already added some of them to my new stream deck
