Elgato Stream Deck XL

Compared to previous models, the addition of 36 control keys and 6 control knobs is particularly appealing. This upgrade significantly improves usability. If you’ve wanted control knobs but were concerned about the number of keys, the Stream Deck + XL is sure to solve that problem!

A first look at my new Stream Deck XL hotkey controller. 32 buttons of information at my fingertips. I pair it with programs like Bitfocus Companion and VICREO listener to control more than just one PC.

We're definitely going to get good use of this. Streaming, obviously, Stream Deck. Video editing, for sure, as well. Yeah, it's pretty nice. Let me see. Can I move my light a little? Ah, it doesn't matter. Okay. So, yeah. This is it. We're going to go ahead and jump into the program. And then I'll also kind of show you what that looks like after, how you can control stuff.

I'm just a guy trying to get stuff done without losing his mind." Turns out, yeah, I kind of needed it. If you haven't seen one of these before, it's basically a little box with a grid of LCD buttons. Each one can be programmed to do whatever you want. Open apps, run shortcuts, control your smart lights, mute yourself on Zoom before you say something dumb like I do all the time.
