Get 3 months of free Adobe CC all apps with the Logitech MX Creative Console! logi.link/slh0h9 That's a $180 value and applies to new and EXISTING Adobe users. Literally you can get this for $20!
I think because Logitech has the name recognition, they were able to get big names like philips hue involved and deeper Adobe integration. But since Logitech owns loupe deck, I'm sure this will help both consoles
Why should it do better, if the hw is already less premium than that of the loupedeck, the base of this logitech console and pad and the marketplace is much smaller than than of Elgato? And why should it compete better in the market?The influencers get this products and will raise it up to heaven, but I do not see the customers except that, who only buy Logitechproducts...
@@fussnote1758 Really??? Logitech is probably the biggest name in computer accessories like mice and keyboards and given how bad Apple's mouse and keyboard are, every mac user should own the logitech version. So I absolutely see a market for the less tech market that wouldn't know a brand like Elgato to consider Logitech. I definitely think the hardware should have been better...made that clear in my video but because of the loupedeck purchase, the overall experience didn't feel first gen. I imagine Logitech is eventually looking to integrate this into its keyboards & mice which is why they decided to create this product. Plus with a marketplace, there is room for software sales instead of just hardware
Great video! I just got mine and I am already loving it. I am trying to figure out what I can do with it. I have a harmony remote if you are interested. Also, what monitors are you using and is it still the same as the MacBook M1 setup video you did? I am trying to get a better desk setup that is more functional and find I am not getting the most out of my desk setup. TIA Mike
I have an old Logitech G13 paired with a contour shuffle that I used for video editing. The level of control and speed it gives is amazing but does require you to remember what all the buttons do. I think the visual element to the MX Control could solve a lot of that (pending the flexibility of the control options in Logi Options). One thing I would have liked: a sunken dimple on the wheel so you can spin it just with a finger on the top. Really cuts down on the fatigue in your wrist when you don’t have to constantly ‘twist’ the dial
That's a very good point! I didn't immediately think of that, but I've also used a ShuttlePro in the past and the sunken dimple is definitely a plus for usability. I'm planning on buying this MX Creative Console, hopefully if Logitech modifies the wheel and adds a sunken dimple, they'll give early buyers the option to replace the wheel instead of having to buy a whole new creative console!
It's very clear they own Loupedeck now. I have a Loupedeck CT and it's like they chopped it up and put a Logitech badge on it. Even the software looks very much the same, I wouldn't be surprised if they copy-pasted it directly and put on another UI on top. I can't blame them for making a cheaper version of the CT though, even if the materials are inferior to its metal brother.
@@MDelorean yeah, I mean obviously if they bought loupedeck it's because they wanted this product and now they don't have to start from scratch. But it makes sense for Logitech to make a console so I'm glad to them releasing their own version. Having the names recognition will be huge for working on better api integration and things like the marketplace
But .... but we need updated CT with OLED displays, etc., as it's quite dated model - new version of an ultimate console 🙂Btw - I don't like this new Logitech's splitted version ....
Awesome! So I'm using the Shure MV7: bhpho.to/3quI3zN although go buy the windscreen from the Shure SM7B mic. The SM7B is a better mic but it needs a pre-amp So I just use the MV7...but for whatever reason, the SM7B windscreen is better lol and it fits the MV7
Very good review of a really interesting product. But it could have been so much better, if they had done what you suggested in your "What I´d change" section, because those are really very good ideas! Btw. ...I know this is off-topic...., but I wished Logitech had not obviously "forgotten" the "Craft" keyboard! A really great device, but they didn´t add it to the "Options +" driver and the wheel, which is really very helpful, has limited customization options.
Appreciate that! I mean, maybe the'll hire me and we'll make it happen haha. I mean this Creative Console Dial and the MX keyboard is kinda like having the Craft. If you're just browsing the web, by default the dial adjusts the volume and the scroll wheel moves up and down the page so it's similar functionality
I would highly suggest taking a good hard look at the Elgato products. 1. It would give your review A LOT more weight. Otherwise it's like saying Xbox is the greatest console and you've never even picked up a Playstation. 2. Most of the things you like have been present in the streamdeck for years. 3. Most of your complaints have already been addressed in the streamdeck. 4. More options in the streamdeck (30+ buttons, 4 dials, foot pedals and a lot more). 5. Proven functionality in the creative space. That's just to name a handful. This is from someone who has multiple MX series products as well as Elgato for both productivity and creativity.
@@xman9963 so the interesting thing which I probably should have mentioned is that Logitech purchased Loupe deck a year ago so they are basically the same company now too. While I haven't used the Stream deck personally, from my research it looks like Logitech with its name recognition was able to go deeper with 1st parties like Adobe, Capture one, and even Philips hue to create a more unified experience. It also allows tighter integration with my other MX products since they all get configured in the same app. It will be interesting to see if loupdeck products and Elgato change now that Logitech has entered this market. With the 2 consoles I've tried, both companies have been struggling to deliver on promises so I'm starting to feel like having a big brand like Logitech is a welcome safety net
As a Logitech user and mx line user since more than a decade: The streamdeck has beside the dial thing all things and much more. Logitech has a track record for abandoning devices by leaving them without software updates. Like my Logitech craft advanced. The streamdeck has proven to be reliable and receives updates since 2017. Good to see competition but I don't want to jump trains too quickly.
I don't get how young creators are so blown away by big knobs. I know none of you ever probably cut 'tape to tape', but it was fast, efficient and was done with a minimum of buttons and two big knobs. So much television you know and love was made this way. This is a cool device, but it's oldschool and not revolutionary. This is back to the future for so many editors.
Haha...well I might not be as young as you think. When I was shooting on my own, we were in the miniDV standard def era so still a tape system with decks and plenty of knobs. I owned the Canon XL1 back then. But yeah, I wouldn't say the dial is revolutionary and I actually didn't focus on that part as much. It helps with a few tasks but obviously a dial doesn't speed up everything. What I'm more impressed at is the big players Logitech seems to be getting on board for native integration, the marketplace, and the custom functionality of the LCD buttons with apple scripts, shortcuts, and just tons of potential. That and the fact that this is basically only $20 right now if you use Adobe or want to use Adobe with 3 months free
@@learningcameras I stumped up and bought one for that reason, but the clincher was seeing chatgpt writing a basic script you could drop in as well. I do a lot of live production and this can surely be mapped to work as a replay controller in the likes of vmix etc. I also do a lot more audio work these days, so am exploring workflow solutions for the likes of Descript and Reaper to speed things up. There are gains to be had if you're smart about workflow. Fun fact: about the old XL1, parts of 28 Days Later were actually shot with it
@@Interconnector-podcast Nice! Yeah, when I used chatgpt to give me ideas for what I could have a script do and then it actually wrote the script for me that created an entire folder structure, that's just next level. Means I don't have to wait to see what others do in the marketplace...even without programming knowledge you can create extremely advanced functions yourself. I didn't know that about the XL1!
@Dan Watson Does this work as a regular additional keyboard with hotkeys? Similar to the elgato streamdeck? Just wondering if I can map keys to this without having to use all the fancy templates in their marketplace? I would like to use a different app which is not for video/photo editing. My main interest is the Knob (dial) to control faders. Is there any way you can test this out with vMix or any similar tool?
Yes, you can map keys to this in like 10 seconds without having to use the marketplace. But for the dial, I'm not sure how to map that to a fader with a program that doesn't directly offer integration with the Logitech. I tried to make it work and I haven't been able to get that yet...it could be possible but while I was able to map keyboard shortcuts and other actions to the buttons no problem with every application, the dial I think needs to have software integration
Logitech's mice also have long battery life too. I got a M310, and I put 1 Duracell in it. A whole year later, it finally drained. They know efficiency. Granted I play a lot of video games, so that probably made it drain faster than most people.
I have a tourbox but my issue is the layout is complex, hard to develop muscle memory for, and kind of jumbled...it's like they threw 1 of everything in it which looks cool and seems cool until you actually try to make it faster than mouse clicks and it usually falls short. It's better to commit to a smaller set of controls and then create different profiles that change what they do. So for example, for the Logitech MX CC I have a lightroom profile for culling and a different one for editing
It's definitely there..maybe .2-.4 seconds. But for the type of editing I'm doing, I usually turn down the speed on this dial a ton so having some latency never bothered me. I'm usually concerned that it's too sensitive
@@THE.MICHAEL.ANGELO Thanks! Appreciate the sub. So it doesn't have presets built in by default but you can create your own shortcuts manually. I doubt captut has an API for remote control so it's unlikely we'll have greater control than that anytime soon
The reason why they did 2 units is so the knob unit can live anywhere and be travel friendly with over a year of battery life. The LCD unit has a cable because of the power requirements...I think all of these consoles are wired so this is the only one that's only partially wired. But I do think they should have had some magnetic connection for if you want to use these together. Logitech just designed these to be used independently if you want to so depending on how you use them, that's a plus or minus. When I'm on my macbook pro, I tend to use use the dial but when I'm on the desktop, I'll use both
Waiting for the V.2 of these. Need to feel premium for the price point. Meaning metal, magnetic attachment points, both standardized USB-C charging and Bluetooth. No real benefit if you already have the MX mouse and a stream deck.
You can always create shortcuts manually for LR CC but I think Adobe is pitching that mostly towards mobile editing so I think that's why we haven't seen an initial focus on preconfigured plugins for that yet
It's actually really powerful for cropping. When you hit crop, the LCD screen gives you 7 choices of different standard crop ratios like 1:1, 16x9, 4:3... and then has a rotate to crop button in the middle. If you hit that, the dial will let you adjust the horizon manually. They tend to work best when used together for this
The biggest bummer for me is the use of AAA batteries instead of a rechargeable battery, for that price it’s quite annoying to me. Very expensive for that feature and light plastic material :/. In the principle I really want it but I guess I’ll try to wait for another gen maybe, or a big big sale.
The batteries last for well over a year so I'm not a fan of using rechargeable batteries in this case. It's better to just throw them away because batteries can't hold charge well after years of use anyway
@ that’s an argument I can accept, totally valid, but not at that price I think... I might prefer waiting or maybe having a streamdeck neo instead which looks quite appealing for the price !
Seriously...they were just getting good! My guess is people weren't buying $200 remotes as much but if you don't have line of sight, you really need good remotes
I'm a huge Streamdeck fan. But this is promising for 2 reasons 1: I'm a Logitech customer 2: Logitech acquired Loupedeck. Elgato's/Streamdeck competitor
Yeah, I haven't used the Streamdeck just because I've been burned by startup consoles a few times before but I think the marketplace on the Logitech is going to give it the edge pretty quickly. And if you use Adobe, might as well just get the logitech because it's basically $150 off
Yes, I agree, that the fanboy and -girl-community will give this product a chance. But, the software of Logitech has never been the good part of their peripherie, why should it be different with the Loupedeck-Variant, they now try to place in the market? In my opinion, the market is occupied and the only chance would have been, to enter it with low-price-niveau @around 100,-€... But it costs the double, is less premium than the Loupedeck after all I read, and has limits in controls or buttons. Who, except the Logitech-Community, should buy this too-late-competitor?
It doesn't have a plugin profile right now so you'll either have to wait until someone or logitech creates one on the marketplace (prob won't take long before another user does), or you can create one manually yourself
Yeah. I understand why they didn't because adding Bluetooth and a battery would have been expensive but if they made a cool dock for it with magnets like the apple watch charger, I'd pay $50 more for that!!
Logitech actually owns Loupedeck now so that's interesting. I haven't used it but to me it looks like a nice computer interface for shortcuts and custom functions but it lacks the integration portion with the dial for using it inside of programs like lightroom. If you do editing, I'd say the logitech has the advantage with the wireless dial in addition to the interface and if you use Adobe, just get the Logitech because of the 3 months free
@@learningcameras Sry, but this answer is simply wrong and bases on pure suppositions or why you think all loupedecks have multiple dials, alone concerning the hardware? Do you even know, from what point of view the Loupedeck has been developed? Reading from top to bottom of your given answers reduces your review more and more to that, what it is: Advertisement.
@@fussnote1758 The comment specifically asked about the Loupedeck live...that's why my answer was related to that specific product. I'm not a loupedeck rep so I'm not trying to recommend a specific product from them...nor do I get paid if you purchase a Logitech product so I don't know what you are suggesting. While I don't have the loupedeck live, I have 3 different products like this (which I showed off in this video) and the Logitech was the first to have tight integration with Adobe products which is what I use for editing which with the 3 months free makes it an easy to recommend device for Adobe users which is all I said.
Please ask Logitech to add fix the keyboard you have. 1fix the size of esc to be normal so f keys are at its normal location. 2 add property key next to the right ctrl. 3 add spaces between the f4 and f5 and f8 and f9
Haha...will do. What do you use the F keys for? I typically only use them for shortcuts so having them not centered has never bothered me. I think they do it this way so they can right align the f12 key with delete
it's a scam because I ordered it before the premiere and it hasn't been delivered to me yet and the consultants say that the package will arrive only in two or three weeks, that's a preorder
It's mostly a battery life issue. The keypad has an lcd screen so it draws much more power the dial. Making it battery power would be more expensive, add weight, and it would need to be charged every few hours if you wanted to keep the display always on
It works for existing users so it will! Not sure if they just add 3 months to your existing subscription or promo 3 months but it does work for existing users
It's $200 with 3 months of free Adobe Creative Cloud. I don't always say the amount in the video because sometimes the price can change pretty quickly on new products like this

Just wished it would work with Lr Cloud…..
Does this also work with FCPX?
It doesn't have a plugin profile right now so you'll either have to wait until someone or logitech creates one on the marketplace (prob won't take long before another user does), or you can create one manually yourself
Wished they made the keypad wireless too
Yeah. I understand why they didn't because adding Bluetooth and a battery would have been expensive but if they made a cool dock for it with magnets like the apple watch charger, I'd pay $50 more for that!!
How would you compare this to the Loupedeck live?
Logitech actually owns Loupedeck now so that's interesting. I haven't used it but to me it looks like a nice computer interface for shortcuts and custom functions but it lacks the integration portion with the dial for using it inside of programs like lightroom. If you do editing, I'd say the logitech has the advantage with the wireless dial in addition to the interface and if you use Adobe, just get the Logitech because of the 3 months free
@@learningcameras Thank you it's already in the cart LOL!
@@AmahriHowland hahaha...enjoy!
@@learningcameras Sry, but this answer is simply wrong and bases on pure suppositions or why you think all loupedecks have multiple dials, alone concerning the hardware? Do you even know, from what point of view the Loupedeck has been developed? Reading from top to bottom of your given answers reduces your review more and more to that, what it is: Advertisement.
@@fussnote1758 The comment specifically asked about the Loupedeck live...that's why my answer was related to that specific product. I'm not a loupedeck rep so I'm not trying to recommend a specific product from them...nor do I get paid if you purchase a Logitech product so I don't know what you are suggesting. While I don't have the loupedeck live, I have 3 different products like this (which I showed off in this video) and the Logitech was the first to have tight integration with Adobe products which is what I use for editing which with the 3 months free makes it an easy to recommend device for Adobe users which is all I said.
Please ask Logitech to add fix the keyboard you have. 1fix the size of esc to be normal so f keys are at its normal location. 2 add property key next to the right ctrl. 3 add spaces between the f4 and f5 and f8 and f9
Haha...will do. What do you use the F keys for? I typically only use them for shortcuts so having them not centered has never bothered me. I think they do it this way so they can right align the f12 key with delete
Does it havev an onboard memory?
Don't think so...I think all the profiles are stored in the software
There is no davinci resolve?
Not built in as of now. You can configure shortcuts manually to the device
it's a scam because I ordered it before the premiere and it hasn't been delivered to me yet and the consultants say that the package will arrive only in two or three weeks, that's a preorder
Hi. Can you please tell me what kind of speakers do you have? Thanks.
I use these and highly recommend them: bhpho.to/4ecDCgP

Software looks suspiciously like Loupdeck😆
Logitech actually owns Loupedeck so probably not all that suspicious lol. Apparently a year ago they were acquired
Kind of a shame that one of them has a cable attached… any reason why they couldn’t both be Bluetooth devices?
It's mostly a battery life issue. The keypad has an lcd screen so it draws much more power the dial. Making it battery power would be more expensive, add weight, and it would need to be charged every few hours if you wanted to keep the display always on
The answer is: There are enlightened buttons which consume to much energy!?
If you already have Adobe monthly subscription..does it give you a code so Adobe knows not to charge the monthly fee for 3 months?..lol
It works for existing users so it will! Not sure if they just add 3 months to your existing subscription or promo 3 months but it does work for existing users
Ah - Logitech, can't use it anyway...
Why?
@@learningcameras Logitech is known for lack of support outside the Win/Mac universe.
18 minutes of bla bla... Would have been more interesting to see you working with it.
Did I miss how much $$$$ ??
It's $200 with 3 months of free Adobe Creative Cloud. I don't always say the amount in the video because sometimes the price can change pretty quickly on new products like this
@learningcameras Thanks for reply. I will look into this.
