Yes being able to adjust the stepping amounts of the dials would be cool - Our packs do offer fine and coarse controls though. Clck the dial and you can swap between them.

[@EposVox]

Yes! I scripted this before realizing that, but it's certainly appreciated!

[@TouchPortalapp]

Thanks for mentioning us ❤, we are constantly developing new features and improving our software!

[@Jmartinezvega]

Make your app available to more latin american countries, please 🙏 (Play Store)

[@Dr.Kreijger]

The fact that you can use the Wave Link software with this device is a great move. If you have a USB mic already and wanted to use Wave Link, your only option was to buy a Wave XLR, now this makes things way better since you get a stream deck + a way to get submixes and plugins for your mic in one software. Now I'm still waiting for Elgato to release a true Go XLR competitor since the Wave XLR doesn't have enough IO so I still need to use my Yamaha AG06 to plug in my piano and my headset mic.

[@NorthernLaw_]

Elgato said that currently a competitor to the GoXLR/Rodecaster is not in the works but with all the feedback they have been receiving with people hoping for that, I think they might eventually do it. Just need to keep waiting only a matter of time at least 4 dials and 4 sliders would be quite amazing

[@Mike-pd6np]

Still waiting lol

[@NorthernLaw_]

@@Mike-pd6np Same here brother. Might be a while, I got a SD+ for the time being. GoXLR has shit the bed so that's no longer in the picture.

[@Cthu1hu]

I wouldn't mind a version of this with sliders honestly. Oh yeah and an XLR port

[@frankmags]

This is what I thought we were getting smh

[@NorthernLaw_]

Same but they said today they aren't doing that because they don't want to combine products and make a full mixer like a GoXLR or Rodecaster, unfortunate but with this feedback they are getting I think they will make one in the future, we keep waiting

[@shortanimationz]

@@frankmags They'd be effectively killing the Wave XLR which has only been out for like a year and a half

[@frankmags]

@@shortanimationz Yeah, i get it. I just convinced myself that we were getting ElGato's version of the GoXLR and now I'm disappointed lol

[@ronjones3977]

@@frankmags tbh this device is even better this way u can literally use any xlr interface you want and get all the utility of using the wave software.....pairing it with my wave xlr is gunna be great and still like $40 cheaper than a go xlr

[@SuperHamrick94]

Question! If you already have a soundboard software (such as Voicemeeter) on your computer, is it wise to get rid of it to get better use of the audio dials on something like this newer Streamdeck+, or can you set controls to work on the audio programs on top of what the streamdeck+ can do when it operates on its own?

[@JohnAlzayat]

Yes, this is the review I have been waiting for since the announcement dropped.

[@lonewolfex]

I've already seen videos on this, but I wanted to click through just to tell you that I appreciate the Sega Does What Nintendon't title

[@TomFooleryGaming]

Wait, so... you can remove the stand so you can lay it flat... but it looks like the plug come out of the back at a 90 degree angle. So how would that allow it to lay flat?

[@TeaOS]

Its still wild to me that they don't have mounting options on these things when they have their whole "multi mount" system

[@BenjiDWJ]

An awesome video as per usual, Adam! 😄👍👍 Cheers to you, my man! 🥃🥃

[@asbregafio8891]

hello, a question, on the video cards other than the encoders you bring in the videos (QSV, NVENC, AMD) is there anything that may be of interest to those who only watch the videos? to have a better quality (bitrate, decompression etc...)

[@chodak3709]

This device has been great to use with MacOS, makes adjusting different applications volumes on the fly so much easier

[@tsoruu]

Moving elements horizontally and vertically, zooming the elements, color adjustments by adjusting saturation, hue, brightness, etc... Omg those dials are to die for 😭

[@LuminairPrime]

About the Wave XLR: I noticed that they make you do a lot of mandatory processing in VSTs on the CPU which adds latency, whereas the GoXLR always proudly said that their chip was strong enough to do the processing in the box for low latency. A latency test of the two platforms under common circumstances would be interesting. Maybe the Wave XLR is just a dummy and runs 2x slower than GoXLR once you add EQ, compression, gate, etc...

[@EposVox]

On any modern hardware, VST latency is going to be negligible and virtually every webcam and capture device on the market is going to be slower than the VST processed audio anyway so it doesn’t have an impact on syncing. It can be an issue, but it’s rare

[@isshaye]

There was some static sound coming from the left ear at 9:14 (goes on for a few minute or two) otherwise great video

[@EposVox]

Definitely isn’t present in the edit or export. Dunno, not showing up on my end

[@isshaye]

@@EposVox That's really strange. Appreciate the reply

[@EposVox]

Could be a KZbin thing. Who knows. KZbin audio been weird lately

[@AnoopTony]

@@EposVox I can hear it when I play back through chrome and through android KZbin app... May be it is KZbin compression issue?

[@EposVox]

Huh. Guess so - is it the music? Are you hearing the music as static? I used resolve’s new ai dialog leveler in these videos and it isn’t perfect yet so could be a hiccup with that

[@sixthcrow]

So thoughts on how it compares to the LoupeDeck Live? Feels like they made a Live- in some cases.

[@LivinginPlymouthJenSylvester]

How are you able to get the Volume Controller plug in to work on your Mac? I've been trying to figure out a work around for weeks.

[@Doughny]

Will the stream deck lower my sound quality? I bought the go xlr mini a few years ago, but to control my sound I had to use the internal DAC. Sadly this was way worse than my current one, so I experienced a DRASTIC drop in soundquality, since I use a high-end audio system. So I have only been using my goxlr to control my microphone, but having sliders to control different sound levels would be a nice quality of life improvement.

[@rpag]

really digging the wall of TVs in the back

[@SPAbyShorey]

Great review EposVox, I think you rasied many good points including re the need for a 1/4 40 mount point. I also wish the stream deck had maybe two non-screen small buttons below or above each knob . Mute/solo, or knob resolution or some other things that dont need a big button . I think i will buy this device

[@NorthernLaw_]

They have said that the faceplates are not a thing on the SD+ because development on that was started in 2019, this was pre-Stream Deck MK2 with swappable face plates. The second reason is even if they wanted to, it wouldn't make sense because of the LCD touch screen which wouldn't work with a swappable face plate, dials too but that could be worked around, the LCD screen however could not, at least not easily. Also currently Elgato has no plans for a SD+ Mk2, or Pro, or XL or anything like that at the time of writing. However it's possible that after seeing feedback, that might be worked on soon

[@EposVox]

Dials are a nonissue as they’re removable. Screen could be doable because it has its own bezel so the plastic faceplate should theoretically just fit around it

[@NorthernLaw_]

@@EposVox That's what I meant for dials, it's possible but just a small challenge. As for the screen, my words are directly from the product manager at Elgato, Steggy, he said it on stream earlier today and that was why they didn't/couldn't do it just yet anyways

[@morenutshell1565]

I thought of purchasing the beacn mix create but omg this thing just KILLED it

[@brandontpeck]

I have the beacn mix create, While at first it was super buggy and wouldnt save my profile i must say after a few updates and added feature im love my beacn, However I wouldnt mind getting one of these because I see the potential to use the knobs for things outside of audio i know in the begining it may not have support for every program but imagine use this as a time scroll or audio scroll in music or video editing software or being used for other programs.

[@bullshyte4318]

I'm in a music setup and I want to be able to hold mouse left on any slider/knob, and then use the Elgato knob to move the mouse cursor, either in circles or straight lines. And also want to control the mouse roller with the Elgato. Is it possible?

[@crazyeyecarl]

So I wanted to buy the Motu M2. Would I be able to use to control it better? Say program a mute button that the M2 doesn't have? I wanted to dip my toes into streaming, and I hate my GoXLR Mini so I need a new interface. I could try the Vocaster, but I'm worried about the headphone amp. My Idea was the M2, and then plopping the Stream Deck + on top of it to give me extra functionality.

[@Kopacko]

@EposVox I don't know if you heard it or not, but there is quite a bit of mic scratchy noise throughout the video. Specifically around the 10:13 mark.

[@macadaegmarlonj.4007]

Hi, May I ask how to use the wave link software using stream deck plus and other brand of audio interface. I'm a bit confused about this. Thank you

[@or10nsharkfin]

Looking forward to finally getting mine soon. All I wanted was a Stream Deck that had programmable knobs to control Wave Link. While I was hoping they'd release a full-fledged Wave XLR Pro with a full I/O in the back, this is a good product to replace my Stream Deck XL which I was using for lighting and Link controls.

[@altonova1]

[@Jonathan-Roden]

10:15 who else restarted their Voicemeter?

[@morliest]

I already invested in a decent USB microphone before wave link happened, and I've been pining for that software because all the audio tests sound SO GOOD on the wave 3 and wave XLR. This looks like it'd be my ticket to unlocking that software (added bonus I don't already have a stream deck yet)

[@ChiMobileX]

Can it separate audio on a M1 macbook pro?

[@MokoInSpace]

Great & informative vid as usual, but is it just me, or there's a bit of audio clipping, around 10:10?

[@ad3d]

Thanks for that shout out my friend!

[@ronjones3977]

I like this seems like a good idea now anybody could use any XLR interface with this and get all the access to the wave link software... This makes the barrier of entry Much lower to get a respectable XLR interface

[@MajinBuugatti]

[@starvexia]

I heard it too, came to the comments to make sure it wasn't just windows being weird on my side. Thanks for leaving a comment!

[@Cidriel]

since I have a USB mic (the lovely Revelator Dynamic) and only use the goxlr mini for having sliders and virtual audio devices for routing and adjusting with physical controls, and with the wave link software enabled on this, I am considering replacing the goxlr mini and regular stream deck with this as an all-in-one solution. it just sounds like from what I'm seeing in reviews to be the best value. cheaper than both devices (even on sale) and less desk space in an already cluttered setup.

[@nioxic77]

There's some audio issues, in a tiny few spots here, around 9:13, and a few other places. :) Nice video though

[@heyitsterry]

If this included an xlr input, I would have jumped on this. I love my goxlr, but it’s a huge desk hog lol

[@MrWubzHD2]

sadly the biggest thing that this cant do that the beacn create does is lets me have a button for stream audio mute and my audio mute. which like you said elgato doesnt let you do. also beacn lets you press and hold on a knob to switch your default audio device like between headphones and surround speakers so when not streaming i dont have to use headphones then if i jump in discord just hold a knob and it switches to headphones.

[@Lohkat]

what happened to the microphone audio in the video? The volume changes between the channels sometimes, like around 4:50

Hey man, I'm new to all this and I just bought the stream deck +, however, I was looking at getting the Beacn mix and create, would that be a complete redundant purchase? And will the stream deck + be able to do everything the mix and create could do? I am wanting to start streaming and I have a desktop PC with an RTX3080ti and an ultrawide 1600p monitor, but I also do have a Razer Blade 15 laptop and thought it might be a good idea to run a duel setup that way my laptop is responsible for streaming and I just use the Razer ripsaw capture card that way I still get the full visual experience as if I weren't streaming. Sorry if I don't make sense hahaa, this is so new to me but I now have a permanent spinal injury and I have been stuck at home in my chair for a few years so thought about doing this.

Would you recommend me running a single PC setup "i9 9900kf with an rtx3080ti 38" 1600p monitor" or would running a duel PC setup with a capture card be better off for me still having the best gaming experience at 1600p with as much fps as usual and offloading the OBS streaming onto my laptop with a capture card? And having chat etc on the laptop screen The last thing is mics, either looking at SM7B or the Beacn mic, I would like to be able to use the mic for the audience but also would like to be able to use it for in game chat with side tone so I can hear myself with no delay.

I wanted to like Stream Deck and got the original 15 key. I just don't like how unreliable the function of it has been for the price I paid. It never just turned on with the PC and worked. Independent programmer apps you mention need reloading all the time. Now the update to include the XL changed the software to a new in-app store. I'm back to redoing all my buttons for my games because text and the new icons which appeared are unreadable together. I think you're right, the designers are not trained in ergonomics and seem to not listen to how their invention is being used.

[@TheSakuraGumiLTD]

Is it just me or wouldn’t it be better to have a encoder interface separately and have many more? Because with this you have less shortcuts and you only 4 encoders… just seems like it’s not really replacing anything being a massively cut down version of everything. If money isn’t a thing I would maybe have this in the middle with my main functions at hand, but would still need a proper stream deck and a fader or encoder interface to actually be able to be productive… Or is this a all in one device for very simple setups? Someone that streams doing makeup or something

[@EposVox]

I mean, you have fewer face buttons but you have no less access to actions. Touch panel makes it easier than ever to swipe between pages so I actually find pages useful for the first time. I have tons of buttons but multi actions, offloading some to dials, and pages/folders mean I don’t have trouble using them.

Sorry, I have a Wave XLR with a Wave DX, and that setup for me on Twitch, just CANNOT compare to BEACN Mix Create and the BEACN Mic!! The BEACN software uses less system resources then elgato does and I can drag and drop software to the catagories that I want and NEVER have to mess with the windows sound mixer to assign, and allows me to VERY quickly to drag and drop programs to different catagories while live streaming if needed, even steelseries sonar can do this! People love to show how you can change the ISO and temp of your elgato cameras, but as a live streamer, you almost NEVER touch those settings while live! My loupedeck can already contol adobe with its 6 dials and even more! I can see how this would be good if you don't already own a stream deck, but as someone that has a stream deck XL, loopedeck AND stream deck mobile 2.0 for 96 button stream deck on ipad......combine the fact that Steelseries has free Sonar for streamers, its just a no thank you!!
