Elgato are giving more control to streamers and creators with the Stream Deck +

Elgato one of the leaders in streaming gear have announced an all-new addition to their Stream Deck line up, the Stream Deck +, which now lets you dial in your choices.

Equipped with LCD keys, dials, and a screen they call the touch strip, Stream Deck + offers powerful new ways to interact with apps and tools for a faster, smoother, more intuitive workflow.

“Stream Deck has evolved into an indispensable platform for all types of digital professionals. Every month, Stream Deck users execute hundreds of millions of actions with their devices to make their workflows more powerful and intuitive, often in unexpected and ingenious ways,” said Julian Fest, SVP and GM of Elgato. “With Stream Deck + and the introduction of new physical inputs, we’re giving our customers even more ways to personalize how they control their setups, further positioning Stream Deck as a powerful extension beyond keyboards and mice. We can’t wait to see our community put Stream Deck + to work.”

As you might be able to tell by looking at it, the device features 8 LCD displays, which work just as they do on all the existing Stream Decks, except that peddle one. You may not be able to tell though, but these LCD’s are slightly larger than the ones on existing Stream Decks, giving you less of an issue when you are glancing at them.

Dials are used to adjust volume levels, image details, camera zoom, brightness, white balance, or just about any incremental app settings. Multiple actions can be “stacked” on single dials and pushing the dial will cycle through the actions. Real-time dial information is displayed on the touch strip, which can also be tapped to trigger actions, or swiped to change interface layout pages. Stream Deck + can even be set to automatically change interface layouts as you jump between apps.

With all the customisation available to users already, getting started with one will not take any time, as all those same options are available out of the gate with this new device. Check out a few of the examples below.
