I have found that by using a small 16 button Stream Deck and creating a simple profile to re-call profiles and pages on the SD + its much more efficient and easier to navigate around
I agree i even looked at the promo for this pack and you do see the demonstrator using a trackball as he puts it to complement the experience i think the main problem is the layout for the buttons is not logical at all and i do find myself getting lost in all the screen changes you need to do but for the most part it is just frustrating the hell out of me.
I have found the same thing. Interestingly the SFX PLUS PRO PROFILES V2.1, which only controls printer lights and appears to use a different method for "mouse simulation" works much smoother. Hope SFX will update the Color panel package soon. I been fighting with this for a time. ANd its hard to get any support from SFX
For some reason I can't even get my Stream Deck register with DaVinci Resolve... I wonder if it's just a MAC thing right now? It works with everything else besides DR... Either way, appreciate the video.
Hi Charles have you installed the midi plugin for the streamdeck ? you will need this for the control of the device go to the elgato streamdeck store and install it it is a free download you find it in the music section of the plugins .
Wish I could get mine to work at all. Anything I make outside resolve works but none of the sideshow stuff or even hot keys I make do anything in resolve on my Mac. Can’t figure it out.
Have you gone through the full install setup it is a bit complicated but without all the steps being followed you will not get it to work ? the main thing is this program works through a midi interface and you have to set the data channel through that . I don' t work on a mac so cannot help even showing you a video sorry.
Got it working now…re-did everything ….also deleted all the keyboard shortcut profiles I had in resolve and re installed sfx one. Now it’s all working but would really like to be able to really dial in custom sensitivity for those dials (instead of jumping in 10s to 1 or 2 ata time. I feel like I will probably delete a pile of buttons and profiles with the pack as I find it very redundant in many ways. I set mine up to go to media pool and created a bunch of buttons for that on the custom page…which may become my default / home resolve menu. Side note a large trackball is the way to go for a lot of the wheels adjustments…I have that blue one in your video but still have an old Kensington 4 button one (ball is apx 3x bigger).

I only have the 8 buttons on my stream deck + but i do find the rotary knobs one you get use to them ok but still a bit glitchy.
Thanks for this, I’m still struggling to use this pack effectively. I think I’m going to spring for a trackball however!!

Thanks for the info i have found that SFX did not even reply to my email for support so not been that impressed .
Their live chat support is pretty good …give that a try

@@RDUBTutorialwould you recommend going track ball over a shuttle wheel?
@@garrettobrien936 not sure what you mean by shuttle wheel
@@RDUBTutorial it’s basically like a giant volume knob
