CENTERFOLD: Elgato Stream Deck+

WE ALL KNOW that a cluttered desk can be the sign of a cluttered mind, so the idea of adding yet another peripheral to your workspace might appear to only further compromise your efficiency.

But this charming little device from Elgato aims to do just the opposite. Taking what was already great about the previous Stream Decks, the Plus variant adds a touch panel and four customizable dials for even more fine-tuning than before.

The main purpose of the Stream Deck+ is that it's essentially a cheat code for your PC. Consider it the ultimate shortcut device, in which you can access applications, create macro buttons, change settings, and launch commands-all on the fly and without leaving your current app. This not only makes it perfect for streamers (the clue's in the name) but also for designers, developers, and gamers-you name it and there will be a way in which you can use the Stream Deck+ to make your life easier.
