Complete Content Control, One Streamlined Interface
As the lines between online and offline activities blur in an age of endless interconnectivity, a reasonable question arises: “Why does everything have to be so complicated?” Elgato was wondering the same thing, so when they set off to create an upgrade of their ever-popular Stream Deck, Sweetwater content creators were instantly intrigued. Enter Stream Deck +, a customizable desktop interface that streamlines everything from office workflow and DAWs to fully-loaded streaming arrangements and even smart devices in your house! Its endlessly reconfigurable interface features an improved user system with touch control and a quartet of adjustable knobs, allowing to you open apps, run macros, manage streams, cue tracks, and more. Sweetwater Sales Engineers love the convenience of Stream Deck +, many of whom use one as the central nervous system of their office setups.

Deep integration with 1-touch simplicity
As you might guess, the Stream Deck + is just as simple as its predecessor. Each button can be assigned to any app, function, or folder, all simultaneously; this functionality includes Multi Actions, which allows you to easily chain together any number of actions or trigger them all at once or one at a time. New features on the Stream Deck + include 4 additional multifunction dials, allowing 360-degree control over a wealth of various parameters like volume, panning, mixing, and more! Moreover, the onboard LCD displays can be customized to accommodate your workflow, and features touch compatibility for easy page changes and instant information. Stream Deck + can save presets to call up quickly — it can even be used to auto-detect application changes to set up the necessary preset!
What can I do with Stream Deck +?
The better question might be, “What can’t you do with Stream Deck +?” DAW-centered musicians can dedicate keys to simple functions like opening the application, toggling track volumes, mute/record, and cueing up new tracks. Complex chains can be as specific as managing or adjusting frequency bands within an equalizer or dropping in a sequence of plug-ins specific to a type of instrument. Streamers of any kind will quickly find a home with Stream Deck +, from volume management and pre-written chat texts to deploying entire intro/outro videos and bringing content from other applications into your stream. Virtually any process can be automated and streamlined with Stream Deck +, creative or otherwise. Its compatibility even extends to ring, home, and scene lighting with Philips Hue, LIFX, IFTTT, and more.
