The Elgato Stream Deck is a versatile accessory that’s incredibly useful for content creation, productivity, and a variety of other applications. The 15 customizable buttons can launch desktop applications, control audio mixing levels, or even adjust the lighting around your home. The Stream Deck Mk. 2 is an improved model of the original, featuring a fixed-angle stand, detachable USB-C connection, support for animated screensavers, and an interchangeable faceplate.
The Stream Deck Mk. 2 is currently on sale at Amazon for just $119, the lowest price yet for the normally $149.99 desktop accessory.
While the vast majority of the applications available for the Stream Deck are directed at making streaming more intuitive, the Elgato Marketplace is home to a wealth of other useful tools you can use to personalize your new accessory. For example, Destiny Item Manager, the invaluable tool for organizing your inventory in Bungie’s live-service shooter, has a Stream Deck application that makes fetching your favorite loadouts even easier. You can also find a custom profile for Helldivers 2 that features pre-programmed macros for quickly calling in stratagems in the heat of battle.
