Agreed. It would be so helpful but I want to actually get some growth going before I start investing money in like a green screen and stream decks and stuff.
Great stuff sir. I'm a newer streamer and I've always wanted a stream deck to help with switching scenes and doing goofy things when people follow me. Your channel is always the first place I go to when I'm looking to improve my stream. Great work!
Great Video as always! Wish I had known these were coming out before because my desk is cramped! I bought the stream deck and took months to set it up because of travel and other personal things. I'm shocked at how convenient and well integrated it is. This is a smart way to bring more people into the market by lowering the price. The ability to nest additional commands into folders really makes the number of buttons much easier. Being able to combine actions and adding an additional key press is still an insane upgrade.
I will use your link to buy mine since you were so simple and upfront about getting a small % from amazon.... and because you said LEVEL UP!!! lol New Subbie
Sick setup man. I think the full version is by far the better value, the mini may only be great if that's all you can afford maybe? But I still think saving the extra dollary-doos to buy the full size one is the best move. Great video!
I know this is 10 months old, but you can have folders, so if each button is a folder, it is basically 30 buttons (5 buttons per folder, + a go back button)
Love the channel man. I’m planning on starting to my stream sometime this year and with your videos I feel like I have a head start in knowing everything I need to know as far as setting things up and all the other essential things. Congrats on going full time bro!!!
Can't give this video enough likes! I've been looking for a good review/tutorial video on this, especially with the extra stuff like the links for making icons. Fantastic video dude. :)
I definitely don't need 15 keys, so this seems perfect. Just going to wait for a sale though, because this doesn't seam to have enough of a price difference from the standard deck.
Well Done mate, loving that youve gone full time! Was wondering if you could do a series or a few videos on StreamLabs OBS, i know youve done a OBS but there has been alot of cool changes and new things added to the StreamLabs version.
Just built 3 multi-action keys. One for going live on XBOX, one for PC, and one for ending stream. My end stream is set to play music and will auto stop streaming when the music ends. Thinking of more ways to do it but so far I LOVE the stream deck lol
It's meant to make things more simple, including for people with advanced streams. I would like one since I have that intermission screen in between game switches etc. Although right now it doesn't matter but for the future.
for me i think it'll be worth it, i used to have the XL but regrettably sold it, the XL sells for 210 roughly around the place, and the mini is sold at 100, pretty cheap to get it again.
I bought this unit thinking it would help me with having multiple cameras for my model railway youtube channel. I don’t use OBS. Was this the wrong purchase? Thanks
Great video. Thanks! I just ordered this and looking forward to it coming in this week. (BTW did you really just ask if "professionalism" is a word? 14:22 lol)
Hey im looking to buy the elgato stream deck and not the mini. Anyway im still able to help you out or is that just for the mini? Also are you able to get the software online or do you need a disk drive?
I notice a lot of icons for on off functionality. Can you set a button so that as you press it, the icon changes to show you when it is on or off? (Press button, icon changes to ON. Press again, icon changes to OFF)
Hey Gaming careers, Can you please do a video on how to use Streamlabs chatbot! There is a few around but your videos are the easiest to follow. Cheers bud!
Very good review! I like the idea of having illuminated custom buttons instead of having to jot my macros down and alt Tab all the time. Sure there are other ways to the same things, but why not use a tool to help you streamline your tasks? Having a singular tool that would allow streamers to stream/ post/ adjust volume etc without taking away anytime from your gameplay is amazing! My only concern at the moment is I would have thought the price would be at least 1/2 of the original, but I suppose Elgato is banking on a wave of impulse buyers. Lets see how long it takes for the price to drop, but I have to be honest...i'm probably gonna buy it "at a high price" haha!
@gamingcareers Do you have an AFFILIATE LINK for the regular stream deck? I want to support you man and love what you are doing! I refer to your videos all the time to my Twitch community! Keep up the great work bro!
Can I ask you. Given th eorocr point and the fact I'm a very small time streamer, would you recommend I purchase the mini deck or the large one. Also I will be using your link when I buy. Give a little back
Can you map key board actions in the Stream Deck? I.e. in game save/quit/resume? I do a lot of Borderlands farming and it's a pain to have to hit the escape key, then mouse down to the quit selection, then press enter to accept save & quit, then mouse up to select "resume". I'd like to be able to all of this with the push of one button. Do-able?
@@Roguee After watching the video, I completely agree. Being a small channel I feel really overwhelmed to make the streams as best as I can right from the start but a good thing to realize is if its a career you're looking to make its a job that you will learn the skills and improve them over time so I have to remind myself its okay if I don't know everything c: this would make it easier though :)
@@piplup10203854 yeah i try and make my streams as clean as possible but i need to balance what I want and what would make the stream better for the viewers
@@Roguee Makes sense :D hopefully you will continue to grow as the days past and find a balance that works for you and also your viewers c: as long as you're always trying I would say that is a good start
Thanks for the video. If I would consider getting a stream deck I would probably go for the 15 key version but I like that the mini is less in your face versions and takes up less desk space. Great vid and good luck with full time youtube. Is there a link to the 15 key version I could use that would give you a small cut from amazon.de if I buy it there?
I don’t think anyone was confused because of using “improper grammar” you felt the need to only share your input on. Since anyone with a functioning brain would get what he’s trying to, I don’t really see the point of your comment at all.
Love you and your channel, been AMAZING help much appreciated! You helped me most with a tutorial on how to make Spotify and Snip interact on the stream, with scrolling text & song request through Nightbot's Auto DJ well, I was having issues the other night, and come to find out, when I log into Nightbot, there is this message in the AutoDJ "Unfortunately Spotify has discontinued the RPC api we were using to control Spotify, so support for it has been removed. Due to licensing issues it's unlikely Spotify integration will return." people were able to song request like so, "!sr eagles hotel california" and it worked perfectly, but not anymore... I was able to open Spotify on my laptop, and it was able to be opened on my Xbox One. I was able to request music from my pc, and it would play through my Xbox One, into my headset, and the chat in my stream could hear it as well, while Snip interacted with Spotify. Everyone and everything was functioning perfectly until this Spotify issue.. Now, I am trying to find a NEW way to let people & myself !sr music, that we BOTH can hear, while Snip or any of the Apps I have downloaded, will recognize it and display the track information on my overlay I need help! I WILL PAY FOR YOUR TIME . LOL . No kidding.... I have beeen beating my head against a wall... Also, when people request music through RUclips, how do I make it to where they can here it in the stream, but I cant? Please respond if you have the chance... Thank you
So wait, you can't set it up to awutomatically switch to the right app before you do something? I don't have time to context switch to an app before pressing a button... so this has got to be wrong. And there better be some way to set it to context switch back to the last app you had in the foreground after you pressed the button, switched apps, dit the business, then switch back...
my channel is so small it doesn't make sense for me to buy this.... but, I want it lmfao
I dont stream yet but i buy it for a Black Friday offer in Amazon haha
I was thinking the same thing...I want it, but I'm still debating if I need it lol...
Agreed. It would be so helpful but I want to actually get some growth going before I start investing money in like a green screen and stream decks and stuff.
You can still use it for art and other stuff that not gaming.
Just remember. Streamlabs OBS has a feature that turns your phone into a Streamdeck. Lol
Great stuff sir. I'm a newer streamer and I've always wanted a stream deck to help with switching scenes and doing goofy things when people follow me. Your channel is always the first place I go to when I'm looking to improve my stream. Great work!
The 15 key one was just on sale for $100... So I will just wait for that again instead of spending the same price for the mini. But great video.
Zenzuken Do you know exactly when what kind of sale cause I was planning on buying the big one as well
Wantedmichael it happened on the prime day sale
You can get it today/tomorrow for 99€ again!
just so you guys know, on amazon, it's at most 80$ now, so don't get as bummed out about the price. It's 65$ usd for me now, but it could change.
Great Video as always! Wish I had known these were coming out before because my desk is cramped! I bought the stream deck and took months to set it up because of travel and other personal things.

Thanks for the overview and the little tutorial man good stuff
Got the Stream Deck mini and I am looking forward to setting it up with my future Mac Mini/iMac monitor 4K, Elgato 1080p/4K camera, and 15 key Mk2!
Grats on the 100k my friend, well deserved. U deliver well crafted content since day one. Me and u are very relatable bro. Keep up the good work
I will use your link to buy mine since you were so simple and upfront about getting a small % from amazon.... and because you said LEVEL UP!!! lol New Subbie
I have one since only a few hours but I love it alredy
That desk though! I can't get over how clean your set up is
Congrats on 100k man, been watching you for a while and you really deserve it.
I know i'm late here, but this video was SO helpful. Thank you so much!

Thanks for the intro - I 've ordered thru your link
Wish it had 8 keys. Would be perfect.
I know this is 10 months old, but you can have folders, so if each button is a folder, it is basically 30 buttons (5 buttons per folder, + a go back button)
id buy that! 8 would be perfect
I wish it had 15 keys
@@Protodead the regular one does
They did mention you can assign multiple functions on the one button.
Congratz on 100K!

100,000 subscribers! =D
I remember finding your channel at 1 or 2k. You've come far.
Thanks for talking about the mini, as well as the new multifunction feature.
Awesome video, answered all the questions I had and was EXACTLY what I needed and more. Great job!
Keep up the great content! Its great to see your channel grow so quickly
Awesome video as always. Thanks for all the help!
Thank you for your review, pretty informative. I just ordered one(98 Euro here in Germany)
A mid stream Action replay using the stream deck would be awesome.
instablaster
Great video man, talked me into buying one and i will be going through your link when i do.
Congratulations on 100k mate
I definitely don't need 15 keys, so this seems perfect. Just going to wait for a sale though, because this doesn't seam to have enough of a price difference from the standard deck.
Same
Ravioko eBay??
Thank u for all ur help Pete
Definitely looking forward to a more advanced part of the Stream Deck and things to do with the multi-actions!!!
For some reason I cant center the boxed text when its a streamlabs connected text. Is there any way to center that text?
Also just ordered it through link!
Love all the information man. thank you! i think i can speak for all of us. keep up the good work.
Great Video. Thanks so much man.

good vid. simple question....can you use this with a DAW to control transport controls....start, stop, record....etc etc.
thanks.
Really Cool Video! Would love to see one more advanced stuff too :D
Thanks for good video! Very informative.
Great video man, thanks for the info as always.
It's meant to make things more simple, including for people with advanced streams.
I would like one since I have that intermission screen in between game switches etc. Although right now it doesn't matter but for the future.
I know you basically can get the same experience with the mini one, but I still wanna buy the XL one
I love your videos. You are awesome. I might get one of these things soon
congrats on 100k subs mate!
That looks wicked. Would love a more in-depth video on how to use it. Also is it possible to link it to discord to post stream updates in there????
If I have 2 cameras can I switch the cameras with the deck? Thanks for the amazing Video!!
Great review! (Consider moving that poster in the background tho..)
Do you have to have the browser open in order for the stream deck mini to open RUclips channel?
thank you! great video
for me i think it'll be worth it, i used to have the XL but regrettably sold it, the XL sells for 210 roughly around the place, and the mini is sold at 100, pretty cheap to get it again.
I hope ElGato has some kind of deal with you man,... you complete sold me the streamdeck.
Im going for one NOW!
This looks super cool!!!
Can you make a video on how to make the be right back and starting soon scenes please
You look like a British version of Jim Halpert from the office.
a great video..and I think this would be a very helpful tool for us smaller channels.
I just bought a big one today... but I am not even streaming. Great product! :)
I bought this unit thinking it would help me with having multiple cameras for my model railway youtube channel.
I don’t use OBS. Was this the wrong purchase?
Thanks
UPDATE! Elgato sells this for $80 now.
Love your content
Great video. Thanks! I just ordered this and looking forward to it coming in this week. (BTW did you really just ask if "professionalism" is a word? 14:22 lol)
this is so great! really but any chance to other things using like run itunes and start play run Snaz and snip?
Hey im looking to buy the elgato stream deck and not the mini. Anyway im still able to help you out or is that just for the mini?
Also are you able to get the software online or do you need a disk drive?
New studio looks so lit though
I know the video is older but mini is on sale for $79 USD at Target right now.
it would be really cool if you could do a video about the streaming app Bebo and what you think about it
How do you setup scenes?
I notice a lot of icons for on off functionality. Can you set a button so that as you press it, the icon changes to show you when it is on or off? (Press button, icon changes to ON. Press again, icon changes to OFF)
Hello! Is there a way to change the output? I have a theatre production and I'm hoping to use a projector instead of broadcasting a live stream.
