Most companies would probably try to exaggerate just how much everyone absolutely needs their products. Elgato comes along and goes "You don't need a stream deck, but it is a helpful little tool" I have some mad respect for that.
I clicked on the video thinking it was going to be a product review of the steam deck but instead I was thrown a bunch of hand gestures and arm movements. By the end of the video I was thinking “damn this dude sure does a lot of hand gestures” I wonder if it’s a byproduct of using the steam deck? Dude reminds me of a car salesman 😆

@@hippohippo9344 Same. I hadn't heard of it. I was looking at games online from a local franchise and saw this at the bottom of screen and googled it. I'm no content creator but this looks really useful for creators after watching this video.

I bought 3 of these. One for my son, which he uses to quickly set intro/outro vids for his game recordings. One for me personally, which i use for games like EVE Online (best controller ever for quickly changing ships and setting up new actions for that ship). And one for my office laptop, which i use to quickly pull up vendor sites, make auto replies and e-mails, auto-transactions, and open other office programs and have them already ready for what I usually need them for. I also set up a scheme for controlling Personus Studio One 4 Pro, because I do multi-channel audio editing for bands on the side. Best tool ever! :-)
It would be nice if we could save our custom stream deck buttons and share them with others or post them on the Stream Deck Creator for others to use...Just a thought>

Never thought i needed one until I got the Streamdeck Xl on sale. Its worth it. My advice -If you can, buy the XL. For additional $60, Those additional 17 keys make a huge difference.
There's such a big emphasis on the gaming side here - and I get it. Although I feel I know I can use this, which there was a video that covered how this could improve say - the online webinar broadcast. Like having animated transitions between presenters, like real TV etc... Anyhow, thx for the info!
You can set up transitions pretty easily through OBS (if that's what you're using). Just search for "creating stinger transitions" or something like that :D and then you could use the Streamdeck to go from scene to scene of different presenters and the stinger transition will happen automatically anyway :D
i dont even stream but honestly i kinda want a stream deck for things like muting or deafening on discord, an OBS record button alternative, and maybe some lights if I ever get any
Fantastic video. I’ve been watching other streamers and I kept hearing about Streamdeck, and not quite understanding what all the hype was about? Now I get it and I’m super excited to start using one myself. Thanks for sharing!

we need more tutorials like this and deepers explanations with examples.... This video is so cool, I have been looking at Elgato devices for a few months and it was a very confusing theme to know if this device would be helpfull to my streamings (because I make webinars, I dont stream gameplays), but in this video I saw some examples that absolutely is a YES. I need this device. But I have a question, it works with zoom cloud meetings as good as it runs with twitch, OBS or other streaming platforms?
He talks about that he has multi action set so that it makes him a clip of last 30 secs of gameplay, edits it and ships it to twitter... been just wondering what do yo need to do so that I could set it for myself too?
With some changes to the form factor, or rear mounting brackets, this would also be a godsend for simulation gaming or as a more multi-function multimedia control panel. The software is already there to support all of these things, the hardware just needs some QOL for alternative mounting options. Hell, you could set it up as a midi controller.
my favorite action is the slow motion instant replay. it avoid me the tedious work of editing, but accomplishing that withing obs was a whole week of understanding. i was about to give up when i found the way to do it. and i will probably produce one tutorial or two about it.
I use mine all of the time. Please fix the latest update. I installed it and it made the Stream Deck completely useless. All of the icons on the keys were gone and pressing them did nothing and also, the software would not even open after the update. Had to uninstall the software, redownload it and reinstall after manually deleting the leftover files after the uninstall and it installed just fine. You guys make awesome products and I'm sure this will get fixed quickly. Just wanted to share this in case anyone else has experienced similar issues after installing the latest update.
Can also set hotkeys using OBS / Slobs anyway and there's even an app for smart phones / tablets to act a stream deck for you. So is it really worth us streamers shelling out like £130-200 on a Stream deck? That's what I'm trying to work out.. \o>
Very helpful. Thank you. I do have a question. I noticed that on 5:30-5:51, you have all 3 stream decks hooked up; The stream deck mini, The stream medium & The stream deck XL. Do I need to have all 3 to optimize what I'm doing? I just recently order the medium sized stream deck. I plan to you use it for streaming on TH-cam & Twitch. Your help is appreciated.
Your vids are great... just a little constructive criticism and you don't need much of that, but I'd EQ your mic audio with attenuating down the frequencies between about 550Hz to 250Hz or thereabouts. The voice is pretty muddy or quacky sounding in these vids. Maybe bump up EQ at about 2K. The info is top notch and I really like Elgato!
@@Rozo_bozo17 I have a question about this. Can you launch games with the Stream Deck? Like could you just hit one of the buttons and a game will launch?
Great 👍 video thanks for this it really helped I just picked up a stream deck yesterday and I just learned about it a few days ago (“ Excited about the creativity that’s about to happen (“
6:13 how in the world do you do that??? i cant even get my stream deck to open a system file and close it with the same button press. like i can get it open with the open function but i cant close it. i even tried to use advance launcher but it doesnt recognize a file as a shortcut. it only opens and closes apps and programs.
so I started running TTRPG's on roll20, currently have a few games I run and I just ordered my own stream deck to help run the game or activate the macros. Can also see myself setting up buttons for various games as well ( I don't see myself streaming really)
I just got a brand-new Stream Deck Mini for Christmas and so far, it's great. It's an easy, simple software to get used to. My only question/ thing I have been stuck on is how to app a to the buttons such as Minecraft and other apps that are not websites.
Can you use it as a game controller to execute in game functions? Say I wanted to do something simple like turn on a flashlight by binding the F key to one of the buttons and have that button light up when the flashlight is active. I Know this is a very simple example but I have some complex idea's for using this device if it can do this sort of action.
You say clearly that a Stream Deck has LCD keys. I've been told that the keys are actual transparent keys and they are all overlay one LCD screen. Can you confirm what is actually true please?

Thanks for sharing very helpful 💯🤝
6:13 how in the world do you do that??? i cant even get my stream deck to open a system file and close it with the same button press. like i can get it open with the open function but i cant close it. i even tried to use advance launcher but it doesnt recognize a file as a shortcut. it only opens and closes apps and programs.
so I started running TTRPG's on roll20, currently have a few games I run and I just ordered my own stream deck to help run the game or activate the macros. Can also see myself setting up buttons for various games as well ( I don't see myself streaming really)
Loving my Stream Deck for roll20, foundry VTT, and Discord. It's already been useful and I've only had it 2 days!
Thank you for explaining this awesome device!
Glad it was helpful. 🙌
I just got a brand-new Stream Deck Mini for Christmas and so far, it's great. It's an easy, simple software to get used to. My only question/ thing I have been stuck on is how to app a to the buttons such as Minecraft and other apps that are not websites.
Thank god they partnered with voicemod 🙏🙏
Where can I buy your light stand at 2:46, reminds me of old time cinema
can you seriously send a live capture of the last 30 seconds of gameplay to your editing software with pre-set edits? that would be magic
Really is a great product!
Other types of Switchers like this on old analog gear would've cost a fortune!
I really would love to get advice from this guy in a live chat.
Are there benefits for a regular vlogger/live podcaster?
So the deck isn't a capture card also, correct?
Correct!
5:27 - how do you do an instant replay? You’re showing OBS, is that what’s doing it? Is there a tutorial for that?
This looks really cool for streaming. I might need to get one for any future streams.
Can you use it as a game controller to execute in game functions? Say I wanted to do something simple like turn on a flashlight by binding the F key to one of the buttons and have that button light up when the flashlight is active. I Know this is a very simple example but I have some complex idea's for using this device if it can do this sort of action.
You could set game controller actions in Steam perhaps ! Dunno about streamdeck. Getting mine todayyyttttt
You say clearly that a Stream Deck has LCD keys. I've been told that the keys are actual transparent keys and they are all overlay one LCD screen. Can you confirm what is actually true please?
You’re right
Do the LCDs on these things die for no reason like the LEDs in Corsair keyboards?
Your stream deck even gets used in online sim racing as a button box...and it's pretty sweet IMHO! :-)
