Elgato Stream Deck MK.2

A "15-key" format that has become a benchmark for controlling a creative setup

Stream Deck has established itself as an iconic desktop controller to centralize commands in a modern setup: streaming, content creation, post-production, editing, podcasting, or home studio control. This 15-key version embodies the ideal balance between compactness and direct access: enough commands to manage a full session, while remaining easy to place next to a keyboard, MIDI controller, or audio interface.
The product philosophy remains the same: eliminate friction. Instead of multiplying shortcut combinations, windows, and clicks, you keep your essential actions within reach, constantly visible via the screens integrated into each key.

Who is Stream Deck made for in studio, streaming, and production?

Stream Deck is aimed at anyone who wants to save time and secure their actions in real situations: live, recording, broadcasting, or editing. In streaming, it becomes a true control surface to switch scenes, mute/unmute the mic, launch a jingle, trigger a lower-third, or send a message. In studio and music creation, it can serve as a macro pad to automate routines (arming tracks, marking, exporting, navigation, template management), and keep critical functions visible without taking your eyes off your DAW.
Its value is especially strong when juggling multiple applications: audio software, video tools, chat, browser, file management. The goal: maintain focus on listening, visuals, or performance, rather than on the interface.

Fast, readable, and fully customizable commands

15 LCD keys: immediate readability and constant visual feedback

Each key has its own LCD display: you always know exactly what you are triggering. This approach limits errors live and speeds up learning, especially when using multiple command pages. You can adapt the appearance to your logic (colors by action family, clear icons, explicit labels) for safer control.

Membrane keys: the "Stream Deck" feel

This model retains the membrane keys appreciated for their consistent feel and simple activation. The tactile response is designed to chain actions quickly, stay in rhythm, and maintain control, whether launching a single command or controlling a sequence of actions.

PC/Mac software: profiles, pages, and scenarios

The configuration software allows organizing Stream Deck by profiles (by application, use, project) and by pages to multiply the number of available commands. The principle is straightforward: assign an action to a key, customize the icon, and build your workflow logic. Plugins extend possibilities for many applications, with regular updates to keep up with evolving uses (streaming, editing, productivity, studio).

Visual customization: faceplates and screensavers

Beyond icons, Stream Deck can be customized in detail: faceplates, wallpapers, labels, and displays. Screensavers for faceplates also allow you to enhance the aesthetics of your workstation when idle, while maintaining a visual identity consistent with your universe.
