I was there lol
i guess in the future you can use the network dock for that
controller being networking equipment haha
but for now that only works with bitfocus companion and buttons
hi
can someone tell me if the wave 3 or hyperx quadcast 2 s is better? i need it mostly for recording clicks and i cant decide which to pick
Anyone know anything about the upcoming Zoom plugin for Stream Deck? I'm thinking that info may have leaked early because I can't seem to find anything about it but either way, I'm excited for there to finally be an official one!
stay tuned ^^
I am excited for the network dock hopefully my plan will work with it
#qotd the stream deck xl is still my favorite
You'd need a capture card in a dual PC setup, to be fair, though that isn't something everyone needs or uses
#question-of-the-day answer, I love just going and doing !lurk to they get the views
#question-of-the-day My favorite way is financially, either by subscribing or through donations (or both!), but if that's not an option, I do enjoy just being a part of their chat and talking. There's been a good few times where I've popped in on a small streamer with only a few viewers and just talked with them in chat a bunch, breaking up a bit of the monotony of silence :3
It's not always possible indeed, but still a very nice way to support them!
#question-of-the-day my favorite way to just by watching and interacting, even if i cant support financially I just go and chill and try to just chat with them, especially if they are a small streamer and dont have to many people interacting.
How often do the Elgato sales occur? I see there was one in March.
for sure during black friday and amazon prime days. I would recommend signing up for the elgato newsletter and keeping an eye on their socials for your best chance at seeing when they do pop up sales throughout the year.
#question-of-the-day I would do what I expect people to do for me. Chat and keep me company during the stream when I try to enteraine them. Honestly most of the time these little streamers just needs someone to be there and chatting with them and that will make there day
#question-of-the-day My favourite way is using Prime sub since the amazon account is my mom's (shares it with us) since I can't really afford any kind of sub on top of the subs I already pay (patreon etc). So using Prime Sub to subscribe "for free" is one of my ways. Also I interact a lot and whenever they post on socials about upcoming streams I share
So I have a HD60 pro, fallout wave XLR, fallout stream deck and now have a face cam MK2 arriving tomorrow , am I missing anything?
good mic and micarm? lighting? 🙂
ohh yes keylights 👀
Mic is the fallout one with arm
oh the dx and special edition LP arm
that's hawt
personally my HD60 Pro is useless to me since I play in 1440p and would need something better like the 4K X to support passthrough
Yeah I’ve based my main theme around fallout as it’s what actually got me into more “casual story based” games, I actually grew up on RCT (rollercoaster tycoon) but yeah big fallout fan here
I don’t go higher then 1080,60 on my streams
yeah same but I can't passthrough anything higher than 1080p to my monitor which makes it look awful when the native resolution is 1440p ^^
I don’t have a 1440p monitor just a standard AOC LCD monitor
My light is just some £20 one I got from Amazon where I can change brightness and contrast from bright white to a nice orange
AOC are nice, I got 4 of their monitors in total
I got 3 as it’s all I need
maybe green screen?
My “background is a bit bland but it has a very judgemental “friend”
I have squidward on my wall behind me
ooo squidward!
Yeah it’s squidward looking judgemental threw the serving window at the Krusty Krab, on my other side of my nuka-quantum chair is my shelf full of stuff
So maybe green screen isn’t needed
Just out of curiosity has anyone got the FC MK2 and how does the image look?
don't have it myself but it looks incredible with proper lighting, just like any other camera
I use the Facecam Pro
lighting is key for any camera
Yeah my current is a hudly/huxly conference cam, it’s got the res and fps but it flattens out and extends the view of the room a lot because of the type of cam it is
So wall behind me is like 2ft away from me but the cam makes it look about 10ft away
I suggest cropping the webcam feed anyhow in OBS, crop out the sides
any camera can make look good if you have the right lighting and everything else set up right
I did crop it but still looks bad
It’s a wide angle cam cropped it loads even adjusted its own setting in its app but yeah probably shouldn’t of got it but I guess will make for a ok backup
It’s a Huddly IQ
I mean you can use it for surveillance basically, it's not made to be used as a solo webcam because it's so zoomed out and wide
Yeah I know now lol but CEX got it for £50 when it should be £200
could be useful if you plan to make really wide shots of you doing stuff like building computers and recording the video for youtube
WormeeTechTips :3
True….but my 2 pcs are pretty much build atm and I don’t see me changing parts anytime soon as both are doing well with their roles
or imagine a boardgame setup with all your friends around a table
Define the words friends
But I do have friends just not into that sort of thing as in they don’t like IRL stuff much also distance is not an option to do it as they up north and I’m stuck in sunny south wales
I just meant think of options to either use it for something or sell it
because as a regular webcam it's quite useless
Yeah it’s doing ok for me atm but you can still see the wide angle view even with it being cropped and adjusted
But it’s better then the Chinesium cam I started with
haha I started with a 0.3 megapixel Logitech camera, one of those round ones with drivers for Windows 98 and XP 😛 it was truly awful
Truth be told, my first stream cam was an Xbox Kinect as I was doing direct from Xbox console streaming
yeah those weren't great either ^^
Best I could do from my room on a military barracks
Facecam Pro is my 5th webcam but my final one unless I go highend and opt for a DSLR that I can use outside of streaming to take pictures with at events and such
Elgato 
I miss GAME, all of ours disappeared many years ago, I loved their Used sections
Literally only stream related thing I don’t have for the lives is light but the one I have does the trick
Bought a PlayStation1 and bunch of games from them
Yeah my nearest is in Cardiff on top floor of sports direct
yeah the type of lights do make a difference but any light is better than no light at all
game short for game stop?
nah different brand
Not here in UK
ah UK no wonder I never heard of it
got replaced with EB Games and then disappeared completely here
everything will be online sooner or later
We had GAME, game station and CeX now just GAME and CeX
I do miss blockbuster also
They had goood new and second hand sometimes
I did buy some cool stuff at HMV last time I was in the UK, for my Gameboy Pocket
HMV is ok
Gosh I feel old
You ain’t that old lol
it was about 25 years ago since I was in the UK 😛 I'm 38
I’m 30
aww so young still lol
😄
41 years old here lol
My first console required red, yellow and white cable connectors and even then it was a joystick with button (loved space invaders)
Oh I forgot to eat today, but I don't feel like cooking now
the original Nintendo was tech my first console
same except the joystick, mine was the NES
Noice
my a button was so worn out on one controller...like you could blow on it and it would respond haha
I played a ton of Amiga, NES, SNES, MegaDrive but never owned them myself, my first console was the PS1
Can’t remember what mine actually was but I remember it was cartridge fed into the main thing then the stick with button on the square box
duck hunt and mario
atari?
Yeah just googled it definitely Atari
Atari 2600
Good they were good times when story nor graphics mattered
classic pong on that system
Then PS1 brought DDR from the arcade into the home
with the wii
I would do unholy things for a Streamdeck XL with scissor keys
i need help my 4K Capture Utility just shows a black screen
Good morning, my nerds.
I wish you a great start to your Friday and a fantastic start to the weekend.
Hope you're all doing well and feeling fit?
If not, grab a coffee and treat yourself to some music to wake you up.
Best wishes, Benny.

darn, just noticed a new defect on my keyboard :/
the V key lighting is at a very noticeably redder tint than the rest of the keyboard
that's gonna bother me
Hi friend. Today is my 10 year youtube 🫡
Good morning
if i get usb to lightning converter can i use the wave 3 on my phone?
Yes, you’ll want to connect to a pc and load wave link first to update its firmware if available, and set hardware options like clip guard and the high pass filter.
thank youuu
The audio control server is required when using dial volume controls using SD+. Whis is this not already loaded whe SD software launches ?
oh neat, there's now a Latin America community center here
Coming soon! We're testing some things out. 
HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE
TGIF!!! 
Today is Friday in California
So I just fired up my new pc fresh installed windows from a usb drive and it’s telling me I need to activate windows, I don’t have the key anymore it was from years and years ago. What do I do?
if you've still got the old PC, you might be able to use a Windows key viewer program to retrieve the old key, but there might be an activation limit on the key that'll keep you from using it
you could run without activating Windows, and be doomed to see the watermark at the bottom of your screen all the time
or you could procure a fresh Windows license key. Officially speaking, the most legal choice is to purchase one from Microsoft directly, or from an authorized reseller
Should I go with home or pro?
I have the old drive but no pc to run it off of now lol
Home would suffice for most purposes, though I prefer Pro if I can swing it
Are there any real advantages to pro? My biggest thing is hiding those ads and recommendations. If pro does that and home doesn’t I’ll get it
Pro will still have the same ads, unfortunately. You'll need to tweak a bunch of settings to get those things to go away
Pro adds some, well, professional features that I actually take advantage of, such as improved virtualization support
for normal use cases, it's probably not worth it over Home
Hmm wonder if I can upgrade down the line for less if I really wanted to
you can, actually
The big difference I choose Pro is the ability to pause windows updates so computer doesn't restart in the middle of what I'm doing, I've seen it happen to streamers even while live
I didn't even realize that was a Pro feature tbh
Though I usually fare decently well in that regard since I always shut down fully when I'm done using my PC for the day
It's always nice to have a fresh slate
I pretty much never reboot unless I really have to
Good day
(I edited registry to get this effect)
Doesn't that break at times?
It’s part of wave link, and it does run when the app runs.
(Is there something wrong with your installs?)
I have to manually install every update, ever.
They pop up and I have to click on the tray to make them go
They don’t pop up, no…
The icon in the tray gets a dot that I can click on when I want
Hi ELEGATO Team, i like the "Virtual Stream Deck (Beta)" work good with MSFS2024 no problems with Key´s, realy good make 👍
Great 
anyone else seeing that they downlaods page does not work on Elgato webiste? You click donwload for any otf them and it just reloads the page?
morning!! its a hot one out today! make sure you stay cool and hydrated!
Which cable? The Chat Link Cable?
If yes, it solves an issue with capturing audio from consoles where they don't send voice chat over HDMI to the TV and capture card, but instead over Bluetooth to your controller. The Chat Link Cable plugs into the controller and allows you to also capture the chat that would otherwise be lost.
And there is not a cable for Play at exemple the ps5 on my computer ?
For that, you'd be looking at a capture card instead. You plug the capture card into your PC, your PS5 into the capture card, and then you'd be able to see the PS5 on your PC or capture it in OBS to stream.
For simply showing the PS5 on your screen, it might not be ideal, since all capture cards add a tiny bit of delay to what gets captured (somewhere around a fraction of a second). Depending on the game, especially fast paced shooters and the like, this delay might make the game unplayable.
If you've got a desktop PC with a separate monitor, what you could do is get an HDMI switcher instead. These are devices that can flip between two or more HDMI input cables plugged into them (like your PC and PS5) and only show one on your monitor at a time. This would both be cheaper and get around the lag issue mentioned above.
If you've got a laptop or an all-in-one desktop (computer is built into the screen), though, then your only option is a capture card.


How is everyone?
Relieved. Finished watching the game and now working on my steam deck
Okay
I'm just getting back from a Home Assistant community meetup
Won two (2) smart plugs from a giveaway they were doing
The plugs on a hardware level aren't all too special at first glance, but they run the ESPHome firmware and have an ESP32-C3 WiFi chip in them. ESPHome is really neat since you can customize the firmware basically as you see fit, and the fact it's using an ESP32 means that it has Bluetooth
And, if you're using it with Home Assistant, that means you can do some really, really neat stuff with it
Like having a HA dashboard on your phone that tracks where you are in your home and changes the view to only show stuff that's immediately relevant to you
That could be kinda creepy if that data was being sent to some random company so they could spy on you, but since you compile your own firmware for your own device, it never actually leaves your home network

thx guys ! 👍

Hi, just a little sanity check, I just wanted confirm that the new Corsair Scimitar SE 'unlocks' Stream Deck as if it were a physical Stream Deck, right? Having the Virtual Stream Deck details right besides it is throwing me off a little bit.
it should, yeah! The side buttons should be usable directly in the Stream Deck software like an actual Stream Deck, and it'll also unlock Virtual Stream Deck
Thank you thank you.

Have a Super Sunday FAM!! 🙏

Anyone know how the hell to get camera hub to play ball with the ai background thing? INstalled nvidias SDK thing but its still not activating?
Ask over in #camera-prompter for better visibility.
Hello


Question as I'm looking into purchasing a neocam and neocapture as I have an Asus gaming laptop with built in cam but It seems my camera is not working as good as it should. If I buy the neocam how's the quality and can I attach it on my laptop 💻 next neocapture will it work on all consoles? Current and Past
Quality on the Facecam Neo is pretty good! There's a bunch of reviews on YouTube you could check out showing it off; I'd suggest checking out Nutty's review at the very least. And yes, it can attach to a laptop!
As foir the Game Capture Neo, it is compatible with all of the currently released consoles, and in all likelihood it should be compatible with the Nintendo Switch 2 when it releases!
and here I was planning on going to sleep like an hour ago lmao
I cracked the problem I was facing! It actually works
I cannot wait to get this fully up and running and show this project off here in its final glory
I got it all running :3
I put a working* Stream Deck inside of Minecraft
Need to figure out a more social media worthy video for this, but as it is right now I'm actually very happy about this
The build itself on the Minecraft side was actually really simple; there's not a lot actually happening there
the programming though, sheesh
The complicated part was the coding :3
Yeah
Three primary issues to tackle there: figuring out how to send the external program in charge of making it all happen info on what button you pressed, converting that info into an actual press on a Stream Deck, and of course capturing/importing the screen into Minecraft itself
I kinda handle the first two in a sort of dumb way. Behind each button are some calibrated sculk sensors hooked up to a command block that outputs a series of 1-8 spaces in chat. My program watches the logfile for this Minecraft instance, filters everything else out, and if it sees anything that matches that pattern it decodes it into knowing which button I'm looking to press.
My program (primarily written in TypeScript) then taps into another programming language (AutoIT) that handles actually moving the mouse very quickly to a Virtual Stream Deck hidden on my second monitor, pressing the button, then giving control back to the Minecraft window once the click is done. It's not seamless, especially if you're moving your mouse when it does so, but it fakes the effect well enough
I'd love to see how you figured all of that out!
I've had this idea of building a Minecraft plugin for a little while now
Interesting that it's watching the chat logs I assume to get the trigger
Yep! I wanted to keep the Minecraft instance itself as vanilla as possible for this project, primarily because I don't know Java or Kotlin lmao
The one major concession that I had to make was to use a plugin called LCon. Normally when you're playing on a server you have access to a management interface called RCON, but that's not available in single player
LCON exposes a websocket interface that lets you do stuff kinda similar to what RCON can do, importantly including sending chat commands
Ohhh that's very cool and makes sense why it'd be then easy to take that websocket and use SD through it
I wonder what other things you can use that websocket for, like can you manage inventory etc
To my knowledge, you can use it for anything you can do with the built in game chat
So with some funky NBT shenanigans, you probably could manage your inventory
(the downside of the project: LCON only exists on Forge for 1.20.1 and below, which meant I had to downgrade the world and switch mod loaders once I realized that)
On the subject of NBT data: that's where the hardest problem happened. Watching the chat can get data out of MC easily enough, but how do you get data back in, especially when that data isn't in the format you want to use?
just got a Mini Streamdeck, have no clue what to put on it 😄
I asked in support, but also asking here - is Marketplace down for anyone else?
Congrats! At least for general purpose stuff initially, you cant go wrong with the Spotify plugin :3
Take a look through the Marketplace to see what plugins catch your eye, though! There's a lot of fun stuff there
At least, when it's up, if what @boreal wedge is saying is a more widespread problem... checking that now lmao
Unfortunately I just get stuck on a spinning wheel when trying to look through plugins, or when I go to install one clicking "get" for my streamdeck, it just spins forever and never installs. 😦 Not sure if its me, I've tried two different browsers as well to see!
Try logging out and back in to the Stream Deck app. Sometimes the login state gets a bit weird and needs to be refreshed
Did that too, just on constant spinning wheels for everything I try to see 😦
Ah, this is in the browser itself... try restarting your computer. Sometimes transient technical issues can get cleared up with that
flushing dns can also help
How do I flush DNS? I have restarted four times now..
windows or mac?
windows!
Open Windows Terminal, then run ipconfig /flushdns to flush the resolver cache
actually had issues in general with my mac just a couple hours ago and had to flush dns since reboot didn't help xd
unfortunately still not working.. damn.
It is only Elgato it seems as well, just trying to download the plugins. I had to reset windows and lost all my stuff, so its a bit of a mess LOL
I have the old plugin files themselves but I doubt I can manually install.
(Sorry, I know this isn't tech help LOL)
Might be prudent to switch to the #marketplace channel lmao
Yeah I posted in there, if anyone is willing or has advice I'm around to chat
Having no issues downloading plugins at all, so might be something local to you or that specific plugin?
I guess? I am not sure why its not working - but its anything on the elgato site - we moved the convo to #marketplace but also tried it on firefox, and a different system as well and had the same results
Maybe because I am logging in with Twitch and not my account
is there a way to add mutiple pages in a folder?
no
In any case, getting back to Stream Deck in Minecraft, long story short on the screen side of things is that I take 4 screenshots a second of a Virtual Stream Deck instance, scale them down and crop them to 8x8 pixel images, use code I borrowed stole from someone else to figure out which Minecraft blocks most closely match the pixels in question, then assemble a corresponding NBT file for a structure block and write that to disk where the game wants it (protip: these need to be gzipped for Minecraft to accept them. This took a while to figure out)
Since structure blocks are loaded into memory when first loaded, and since the in memory version has priority over the disk version, I need to change the file name and update the structure block each screen refresh accordingly. I can do that via LCON, thankfully, which prevents me from having to automate typing in chat. Once the data's in and set up, a simple observer clock constantly pulses the structure block and reloads the screen in the game world.
Combine button pressing and screen scraping, and you get something that reasonably resembles the actual thing :3
Funny thing: I was working on this before the public Virtual Stream Deck announcement, but instead using an instance of Stream Deck Mobile running via Windows Subsystem for Android (basically Android apps running on Windows). I showed early progress off to Ochatach, and he was like "yeah definitely try to finish this before Computex" without saying what for
You need to make a good video and upload to youtube, stream deck showcase etc :3
make it a YT short and a tiktok and go viral
That's 1000% the plan

next question is if i get the neo bundle facecam+capture card can i use creator codes for additional savings on the bundle
No, discountcodes don't work on bundles, only separate products.
ahhh!!! no goodsky!
😔
Hullo!!! New dumb but enthusiastic owner of a Steam Deck and running into a bit of an issue, where might I get some advice?
This is with OBS
in #stream-deck , and be as detailed possible please.
Will do, thanks and wish me luck!
it has been decided a neo bundle with a facecam,capture,and keylight i already have a streamdeck and i don't need a new mic i'm good with the one i got 😉 a tad expensive but needed these
Congratulations 
Does anyone know why when I turn my pc off it doesn’t actually turn off all fans and lights still remain on??
Are you sure you're not just turning off the monitor+
All PCs have a certain amount of standby power available even if the computer is completely off, which means that in certain power states you can get stuff like lights staying on that you'd prefer not to. You might be able to go into your BIOS and hunt down a setting to have the computer turn that stuff off entirely when off.
This admittedly mostly applies to lighting. Fans actively spinning when the computer is otherwise off shouldn't be happening
Thanks though it was a tad bit much even though i got $40 off if i could use a creator code that would be great but poopballs that i can't 😦
Meowning!
Morning guys
is marketplace down for everyone?
Getting 500 Internal Server Error when trying to load plugins or icons
it's loading for me now, but that specific error definitely suggests something is/was wrong on the Elgato side
Howdy!
meowdy
WAIT THIS IS SO COOL!!!
You should definitely post this in #1290811392873594970 !!!
I told her that! ^^
Can't wait to see the video!
Just saw that haha, yeah she should definitely repost what she did in stream deck showcase too so we can chat more about it in there and it doesn't get lost in the cth channel 
HAPPY TUESDAY EVERYONEEE

Happy taco Tuesday!!
:)
I just need to record a better video, then you know for a fact I'm doing so
could be a long list of things to go through, I got lucky as the motherboard I have contains the necessary settings to turn off all lights/fans. I love to sleep in a completely blacked out room, the only issue I have left is the network light flashing but I covered that with something. Could you list off what type of motherboard you have? maybe it could be a setting you could set in your bios to get you to where you want to be.
I got a ASUS ROG z790 I think
^^
Awesome, so we may have similar BIOS layout...for me I have a STRIX B550F...As far as lights go, there is a setting where you can enable what is called stealth mode, which turns off all leds [including the power led if you have one on the case]. Would you need help in where to find this?
🫠 I just realized that I didn't have to downgrade to 1.20 Forge for Stream Deck Craft lmao. Slightly refactoring this on 1.21 before recording
Wait i actually got ASUS® ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO
no worries, they should still ne pretty similar in options
hmm anyone who owns neo keylight is it able to attach to a laptop?
Sample image shows it

TY Team Elgato for keeping us in the LOOP!!!

Brito 
Good, yourself?
Good good, caught up on everything after a nice 4 day weekend 

Hello
ive got a question about the elgato lp wave arm, in which channel should i ask my question :) ?
Thanks 
Hey brito
#question-of-the-day mine is pokemon. 
#question-of-the-day Eve Online
#question-of-the-day World of Warcraft
#question-of-the-day 🍄 Maplestory
#question-of-the-day definately World of Warcraft and then Diablo
I can just imagine official profiles with all spellicons and such 
#question-of-the-day would love to see elgato work with nintendo
elgato themed zelda omg
#question-of-the-day I'd love to see some Blizzard stuff. WoW, Starcraft, etc. Nintendo would be cool too but they're pretty protective of their IP stuff
OMG YES
#question-of-the-day sticking with Bethesda, TES6! whenever that comes out 

judging by the quality of bethesda titles recently (made by them and not outsourced) I sadly have doubts about TES6 being as good as we want it to be :/
looking at the 'making of'/'first looks' the quality will be fine, they were going with photo realistic?
What about Inzoi? Or The Sims? Diablo?
Would love to see Inzoi or Sims! Those are good ones.
#question-of-the-day HELLDIVERS!
#question-of-the-day No Man’s Sky!
I have a question with wavelink can I ask it here or somewhere else
#wave-audio for the best visibility!
#question-of-the-day Halo, ezpz
"Mind telling me what you're doing, Master Chief?" "Sir, finishing this DIY Stream Deck project."
#question-of-the-day Games wise I think Borderlands would be a really cool look to get that celshaded vibe IRL
I would also love to see more collabs with other brands rather than games specifically like the Discord one or just new themed ones like the atomic purple is one of my favourite Stream Decks
Yeah, on that topic the wrestling fan in me would looooove a WWE or AEW collab. WWE is probably the more "likely" to happen, but I can dream 😂
#question-of-the-day Good question, actually. Maybe Minecraft? Suggested for no reason in particular
Thats a good one 
I think Nintendo or Sega collab would be insane throwbacks! Or like retro console themed! #question-of-the-day
or anime themed! Demon Slayer Collab? JJK collab! Gundam Wing Collab!
#question-of-the-day Zelda, Dragon Quest, Mario, Pokemon - Snorlax edition!!!
wait... MOTU COLLAB!!!! Imagine a He-Man and a She-Ra collab for a mic arm or stream deck!!
We talking in the 1980s version because if so, then yes!! or the new recent masters of the universe art style that they did like Castlevania
the classic 80's version!! maybe inspired by Secret of the Sword or something so they could have characters like Glimmer, Bow, Man at Arms, Orko....omg...imagine battle cat on the side of the wave dx!
or the kevin smith version on netflix! that artstyle was really good too!
Yeah, it was awesome. Both of them are them personally my favorite would be the 1980s but I do love the new art style as well.
agreed, classic 80's was top tier but the new style really works...id even be willing to accept the 200x version also
Stardew Valley #question-of-the-day
#question-of-the-day Would love to see a Mass Effect/N7 collaboration or an Assassins Creed Collaboration
Today is my birthday
Happy birthday!! 
thank you
Np hope you have a good one :)
Lol I love how I got my Wave 3, and the cable that came with it is so long it works perfectly in my room where the closest outlet is far away from my bed
So now I can sit in bed and charge my phone :D 
And I should add, my room is outdated and has 2 prong outlets - I guess if I really wanted to I could get an adapter and use an extension cord but that seems unsafe
(There is one 3 prong one available but they're in the other side of the room)
So interesting thing about 2-to-3 prong cheater plugs: there's a (small) possibility you might be able to make them actually grounded. Most of those plugs have a little loop at the end of them that's designed to be screwed into the wall plate, which (in theory) should be electrically connected to ground. By making that connection, you allow for at least some degree of grounding capability for your devices
Of course, this does absolutely nothing if the electrical switch box itself in the wall isn't grounded, which depending on the age of your wiring is a very real possibility
Never assume anything with mains voltage electricity
As for extension cords, they can easily be unsafe if they're improperly specced, but assuming you know what you're going to be running, what the worst-case current draw is going to be, and how far away you need the cord, it is possible to run even heavy duty devices without a problem
I once had to figure out an extension cord for a portable AC my family bought (probably the worst case scenario), since we were unsure where it'd have ended up and the outlet situation there. After some calculations to calculate voltage drop and resistance, we ended up ordering a 75ft extension cord with hefty 12 AWG wires in it. In theory, it should be capable of carrying the 15 amps that a standard outlet can supply...
I say in theory because when we went to actually deploy the AC we discovered there was an at-the-time unknown outlet right by the window. Never actually ended up using the cord lmao
#question-of-the-day Age of Wonders
OOO I WANT A SNORLAX EDITION

ElgatoFlute to wake it up
Zork Edition! 
Good afternoon peoples 
#question-of-the-day I've also thought I would love to see Disney movie themed sets.
Like lilo & stitch? GiB pls
yeah Lilo& stitch but also Frozen 2 (yes this one specifically xD)
Fascinating
#question-of-the-day Final Fantasy 👀
The rabbit hole with all of this goes deep :)
that said, you are far better off getting the outlet receptacle replaced with an actual three prong receptacle if possible, since then you'll know for sure that you won't have grounding issues
for now I'm just going to use my long Elgato USB C cable 
That works too lmao
could anyone help me setup the elgato game capture NEO i have been trying for the last couple hours and cant get it to work on how i need it to.
try asking in #capture-cards and let them know what problems you have having with setting it up. That way they would be best able to help get you up and running 😄
Sounds good thanks
anyone ever use the Solid Arm to expand their rig horizontally? I'm thinking of getting one so that I can do a handcam for lego builds but I have the old elgato Mini Mount and wonder if it would be strong enough to support the weight of the solid arm...
and would the flex arm L work with the mini mount as well?
#question-of-the-day I’d say stream deck neo easy macros for me lol and I like the small design
#question-of-the-day I have a TON of elgato products, and hands down the GOAT of my set up is my Stream Deck XL. It does SO MUCH heavy lifting, and has been with me the longest.
For me its the Steam Deck! Makes streaming so much easier!!
#question-of-the-day Stream Deck+ for functionality
#question-of-the-day Stream Deck OG that's morphed into Stream Deck+ with the combos.

As soon as Elgato release a black SD Neo I'm getting one
You can always use a custom skin for now if you needed it
True, that is an option
my friends say when i talk it sounds like im unmuting and muting when i go to start a new sentence the first letter of the word cuts off and sounds like im muting and un muting can someone help
#question-of-the-day I don't actually have them IRL, but design-wise I'm quite a fan of both the SD + and Neo. Honestly, most of the Neo line really knocked it out of the park in that respect.
#question-of-the-day definitely the Neo Stream Deck !
Happy Friday :3
Caluuuu thanks and you too 
Hello, I downloaded elgato to my iPad and everything works fine, I uploaded the OBS plugin to the program but when I want to set the scene change it keeps loading "Waiting for OBS" what should I do about it?
OBS needs to be open
and I guess after installing the OBS plugin you should restart OBS , maybe
great ! and you're welcome 
Whoa!
It's surreal seeing this on the site already. Was contacted only just yesterday to write the article for this
I'm over the moon right now lmao
hi hi!!!
Hey there, how can I have my own mic (me talking in my ps5 headset) register on stream with an Elgato? I have chat link pro and everything plugged in and all audio is playing through except my own voice
#question-of-the-day Hey! I’m doing good. Tryna to stay focused with this PM course I’m taking but it’s honestly stressful….. or am I making it that way? Hmm 🤔 anyway. I’m still looking for a job within that field. Other than that, life is good.
#question-of-the-day Honestly, I'm struggling. But I have put everything on a break to focus on myself, but by doing so I've also isolated myself further. But atleast I'm more 'stable' in my anxiety and depression 🙂
#question-of-the-day im ok thanks for asking, im having some problems but nothing that someone can't handle. Good news im excited for everything i saw from Computex
#question-of-the-day oh, that definitely depends. There's some good in it for sure, but I won't lie and say that I've been great all the time. Lots of stress building in the background from different sources, and I've been battling off my PTSD and fears of issues being kicked up within the past few days.
Take my advice: if you find yourself in a situation where you might get PTSD, just don't

#question-of-the-day I've been a bit tired, and want to sleep in, but I am excited!!! I've been trying to get things going on my Mac Mini M4, and ran into hiccups, but now I'm at a better configuration on Mac OS. I'm working on some videos, and LUT's, also... accomplished my first Presentation at work for 79+ people which was a little nerve wrecking, and something I stressed out over a week for, but other than the "Slow Down" feedback, I feel good about it, and the new things I made changes on with a new application at work, that I haven't felt confident in yet, but getting there. Now I'm decompressing from the day.
#question-of-the-day oof the big question. Struggling a lot.
#question-of-the-day overworked and tired need a break. 😦
#question-of-the-day Tired and looking forward to my vacation in September. Until then, cleanup, cleanup, cleanup in our AWS.
I am doing okay! My son's birthday is Sunday he'll be 33. Lmso where did the time go? Lmao. He asked for a 3D printer lol Not happening but I commended him so big ambitious
#question-of-the-day Where to even start here? Despite one of the roughest patches of my life, I’m remaining positive. Life struggles that have prevented me from streaming are basically over, and I’m looking forward to doing things on my own terms.
As a completely unbiased individual, 3D printers are really cool and honestly decently affordable nowadays
Very useful for making things to stick around the house
If I knew how to CAD, I would buy one...
It's less hard than you might expect, honestly. I started out initially using an easy-to-use web based program called Tinkercad, but the interface on it kinda sucks once you need to begin doing more precision modeling
So in time I switched over to Fusion 360, which I've been using since
I could just ask my Buddy Milton. lol
He loves projects like this, and LOTS of LEGO.
Go for it, yeah
I could bribe him. lol
I'd have to see what LEGO he might like...
Then ask him to make something for my prompter.
I have an idea...
hehehe
true
There's entire model databases out there of free stuff
too bad you can 3d print magnets to the filaiment
I mean, you can, you just have to be smart about it :3
I'm listening!!!
Basically, the idea is you put a void in the walls of your project, and when you go to slice the project you add an instruction to pause the printer at the last layer of that void
You slip the magnet in, then resume the print
And it'll lay plastic on top of it to seal it in
oh that's awesome!!! and no cutins
that's wild, and briliant!!!
But the "pause and resume" trick is a very versatile one
Doesn't have to be magnets either. Want to fill your model with some sort of ballast to weigh it down, like sand? Do it mid print!
it would be magnets with my ideas
Want to swap filament colors without a fancy multi material unit? Easy
due to my desk... but I may try the Platfom 6, unless Corsair, or SL comes out with someting gamechanging next level
before I can do any new PC setups, etc... I have to put new flooring in my kitchen, bedroom and office.
so home improvements are starting 2026
Of course, you could also fashion some sort of cover that goes over the magnet hole, secured by screws or the like
no screws, I want it tool lees
Lots of design tricks possible here
Maybe you use retaining clips instead! Those can be difficult with printing but they're not impossible
(I am spitballing here, but genuinely there's so much choice. I tend to use screws in my designs)
(A box of metric machine screws is surprisingly cheap)
my desk , I can't put holes in it. I can, but don't want too.
it's a magnus so...
magnets
Oh no I mean to secure parts of a 3D print to itself for assembly
oh!!!
i got ya
Especially like multi part prints that need to secure together
Not everything will fit on a printer bed, after all
this makes more sense
imagine 3d printing, and it all started with Wonka VIsion...

except non-edible for now...
imagine making gummi worms in this..
didn't it really start with animated stuff like donald duck and later star trek? 😛

The concept in some form has existed in science fiction for ages
I'm joking @lavish hull lol 
Like that thing out in space, 1 drop of water on a pill and a steak dinner appears 😛
That's a classic
I was trying to find a GIF of GROW, the Dino expanding capsules. It would've been perfect for this.

omg or those water monkey things...
I should rewatch Land before time, haven't seen it since like.. 1992
be ready to cry...
Like the into always makes me cry when Little Foot well... His Mom...
always to animated stuff, never to real events or movies
for real... I cried to Sailor Moon Cosmos... the new one.
Does anyone remember Trix Cereal? When you were a kid what shapes do recall? As an Adult, do you feel gaslit since they are just colorful little round balls?
rest of the world didn't really get cereal until late, it was cornflakes.. then frosties pretty much
Remember when the internet tried to gaslight us into believing they only changed because only kids can see the shapes?
yeah, I was messing with Corsair peeps saying it was AI. Joking of course

IDK if Origin PC peeps would chime in and play. lol
who is rich enogh to buy Trix? I go store brand or bag ceral now lol

I buy OATMEAL... cause I'm old and need fiber.
but protein
even the ultrabudget brand is like 4 bucks for regular cornflakes
you in casual?
see my idea for Chanz

oatmeal isnt cheap though either but I also hat being a big guy and eat to much
I have to do a high protein, and low carb...
once you hit your 40's things have to change...

I miss yummy foods, but I can have a cheat day.
I'm 41 lol
that will be in aug fo rme.
I’ll argue that store brands are better than the name brand stuff now
omg yes, the monopoly H.E.B. here has some really good sparkling water flavors, one taste just like a cheery icee
it's so good
hmm to buy another stream deck + or not hmm 🤔
do you need it?
I would like it so I can have your game launcher ideas on it but do we really need it? hmm thats a tough question
I love my game launcer, i have it by Genre
someone is selling one on Facebook for like 130 so its tempting
If you decide you don't need it, you should buy it for me instead 😎
beter make sure it works, or wait for a sale and have warranty
(jk)
yeah true but then I would want to buy the usb hub too dang so many ideas with a small pocket book lol
are you copying me? lol

well not my fault you are showing great ideas on youtube
always!! Especially after I've done all the trial and error, the only thing people see me get is frustrated when I'm live and something goes haywire. I'm like nope, let me try something... lately it's been Mac OS stuff, but I'm thinking some kicks are finally getting sorted, but somethings are software limited, and the Silicon chips share ram with everything so you're not getting trully the benefit like you would on a Windows, but that;s neither here nor there.
yeah, mine right now is the patience to sit down and do it all but also would mean I need storage on my pc to download everything I would want to put on there
how much storage?
the backups aren't that large
@lavish hull I have a question for you, but I'm gonna ask via DM.
well its the games that I want downloaded
I would say only put what you're going to play, and once you're down uninstall it, but you can still create the launcher for when you are ready to download the game, via the shortcut to desktop and follow my video on how to setup up.
so you still save storage until the game is complete etc...
and the scrolling would still be in in your deck.
yeah or just spend money and get 4tb nvme drive lol
I have an 8TB in my PC...

I'm over here saying save, and you sound like me when I refuse to hear NO.
or not right now..
I mean I bought the Switch 2...
bwahahahaha
well my problem is the games i have now are so big so if I download anymore i need to either delete one I play or put it on my hard drive thats slow
one of my drives it getting there, and i have 1tb left on another. lol
why do games have to be so big and need to take up so much room, main reason I miss buying the cd for games and playing that way
you do know at this pint the CD is just the liscense to play it...
I do miss those days thoguh...
yeah
oh all this secret talk hmm

I saw it!

funny how we can post gif links but wont show them so makes it look like a fishy link lol
I know tenor is a gif site so it's ok...
the mods would've jumped on it if it was a bad link.
i get that but why even have gifs
The reason it isn't allowing Y'all is cause people have abused it, but we're (MOTM/MOTY) held to a standard as community member for making everyone feel welcomed, and have proved we can uphold the rules here. 🙂
My thing, I like helping people, and so do many others, @lavish hull is such a welcoming person. A bit of a goof ball if you ask me...

yeah hes a great guy once u get past his weirdness
what is this weirdness you speaketh of?
I know him best as a major anime lover, and fluent in things I am such a noob at all anime like kawai, and mo.. something. he's a giant teddy bear vibe person.
crap i said to much
Hehehehe I am weird and a proud weeb :3
Y'all was it a WEEB?

see what I mean, I'm old
A weeb is someone that is SO into anime and the culture
TY, and you and Shady taught me that other stuff the other day.
like weeks ago
hahaha
omg @lavish hull I got it, you are a Snorlax vibe person... Like my spirit animal on the inside. lol

YAS
I just wish I could sleep like that also, it’s now 4.15am
go to sleep
If only it were so easy
(for him. I have sleep apnea and can compete in the sleep world Olympics)
I'm one to talk, I jsut drank coffee, and I was napping around 5:30pm until 6ish

I'm wide awake...
and it's 9pm now
I’d love some coffee
I had caffinated tea yesterday
it was hot
loved it
I napped too but I also was up at 4am for working outside at a golf course
Caffeine can help me sleep at times
Stimulants work weirdly on people with ADHD IIRC
so what's everyone's caffeine choice? Mine is Diet Pepsi
Coffee, and varies cause I like many choice of them, but if it's bad Iwont ever drink it again via brand.
Regular CocaCola or coffee, I’m sadly allergic to artificial sweeteners
yes I can sleep through it, but the caffeine hit is real right now.
I was never diagnosed with this, but I wonder if I'm close. lol I have a lot of 'Squirrel' Moments.
Same if possible
I been trying to quit but its so hard
Yeah, might be worth checking out at some point in the future! Apparently ADHD-like symptoms can also manifest from sleep deprivation too
FACTS!!!
Tried to find another, it’s like “old McDonald had a farm AYYY Macarena”
you know ur getting old when ur watching lawn youtube videos lol
I like the carpet cleaning person.
those videos are so awesome
this is probably why I enjoy the power-wash sims in midgar live streams
yes, it's satisfying.
But on the other hand, I just love seeing that video with that chick reacting to that children’s shape box and the dude puts all the blocks into the square shape and you can see and hear her panic xD
that's how devs are when we play a game they make, and they don't like the play style we have
hahaha
Hehehehehe
funny thing is I work at a golf course cutting grass all day and now im sitting here watching how to get my lawn looking better lol
well I'm completed 3 tasks before I unwind for the night, tomorrow I can finally get to some creative stuff. (I did one tonight too! hehehe)

no sleep allowed something shiny
I have too. I have a busy morning.
Night!!

night i should sleep but first day off so trying to game to much lol
I need help
i have an elgato 4k for my xbox set up to my pc. everything is plugged in properly and i can see the screen. Audio works for a couple seconds then just goes to a popping noise every 3 seconds
any help?
plz
This is something for the community help channels - specifically #capture-cards in this case.
has anyone else go to wavelink and see voice focus and plugins reset>?
I have a problem with discord on steam deck on iPad. When I do the mute option and turn everything off, a triangle with a failure appears, I don't know why it is like that, I authorized everything on discord
The usual steps for authorization failures are first to remove it from the Discord authorization settings and add/test it again by re-adding the action to you Stream Deck. Make sure you have the latest version of the plugin (requires signing into Marketplace in the app) because Discord's API updates semi-regularly including the auth setup. If that fails:
Uninstall Discord, rename the %appdata%\Discord folder to something different, and reinstall it. This usually fixes a repeating authorization issue. Don't delete the old folder in case you need to put it back, or have to get support involved as it contains useful logs. This should prevent Discord from getting tripped up in leftover data from previous authorizations can can cause it to retrigger. At times rebooting between the uninstall and reinstall is also suggested to make sure none of the old files are locked open.
Failing that if it still keeps resetting the authorization, back up your Stream Deck profiles, and note installed plugins, uninstall the app, then rename the %appdata%\Elgato\StreamDeck folder to something like StreamDeck_old - again don't just delete it in case you need to put it back or contact support if there's still issue past that. After that reinstall the app again.
same, if I feel like sleeping, nothing can stop me
in my case I have had times where at 1am I had maté which is just as strong as coffee and supposed to keep you awake
i just go to bed xD
coffee (not even pure, tummy doesn't like that too much so I drink a mix my mom has always made for herself XD)
or maté 🧉
Happy Caturday BABAY!! 😻
#question-of-the-day Turn on very bright lights when I mute my microphone so I won't forget to unmute. And turn them off of course too, when I unmute
#question-of-the-day I use multi actions all the time
My most recent one was setting up a system for mass renaming files in a specific way by using a combination of the text action and hotkeys on the VSD so I could quickly type then click to rename the whole folder of files (can't share screenshots here)
I also have a bunch of stuff set up for AE and PS that i used regularly, along with some multi actions for gaming
#question-of-the-day I do use multiple actions from many things mostly for streaming, that way I can just push the one button that does all of the set up stuff for me. But then there’s things outside of streaming that I use it for when it comes to editing.
is there someone that can help me with my FaceCam MK.2? the blue LED keeps blinking (5-6 times then pauses) its been doing this for about 12 hours. When i looked it up online it says its a firmware update but that and the version is all up to date. Not sure what else i need to look into
I use multi actions mostly for modding stuff, like raid and subraid messages, posting socials etc #question-of-the-day
#question-of-the-day EVERY DAY! I record my daily Quicksilver missions in No Man's Sky.
Of course, I have more complex ones for starting and stopping streams.
@lavish hull lol
#question-of-the-day got a few of these, actually! One is for working with redstone in Minecraft that's seen a surprising amount of use. If you have a book placed in a lectern, you can use a comparator to read where in the book the current page is turned to, on a range of 1-15 signal strength. If you get a book with 15 pages, that lets you choose any signal strength you want, which is invaluable when working with more complex redstone. Problem is, such books don't actually stack in your inventory, which is quite annoying when you're using a lot of them. The multi action I have just rapid fires through all of the requisite buttons and typing to set up an empty book, and let me tell you it's already saved me so much time in my projects. I love it.
One that I don't use myself (on account on being on a streaming hiatus) is a multi action to spam Twitch Go Live messages in all of the "now live" channels on different servers! Its reliability is... questionable, since it's very timing dependent and it's annoying balancing execution time with reliability, but when it works it saves so much time compared to normal.
hey guys hope everyone having a good weekend
make sure you hydrate everyone! the days be getting hotter and hotter out there!

to answer QOTD: Yes i use the multi-action when i'm trying to open up all my apps on my PC!! IT IS THE BEST THING EVER #question-of-the-day
we're still pre-heating in texas
Hey Guys 🙂
Small creator here, just joined 😄
Anyone who has some advice for my Stream Deck MK2? I have it configured for OBS and Twitch, but nothing else really 😄
welcome! Honestly, my suggestion would be to trawl through the Marketplace and see all of the different plugins available! There's a LOT of plugins for all sorts of different services, even the ones you might not expect to be there initially
Spotify is a particular favorite
also the Home Assistant plugin for controlling my smart home
Yikes! Hopefully it's not too late bad there
Definitely echo what AppleFreak said about just looking through the marketplace for what catches your eye. The barRaider group of plugins are useful. Maybe windows mover if you like having your windows is specific locations all the time (especially for everyday work stuff). Soundboard for discord calls or when you twitch stream perhaps could be good.
Thank you guys, i will look into that! 😄
I also recommend checking out the plethora of YouTubers that make videos with tips and tricks, so many cool things you can do 
nvm 😄
Have a amazing Super Sunday FAMO!
and you too!
Happy Sunday!
i have a quick ask, is elgato supposed to have a split second of delay on capture feedback n stuff
trying to use it on my laptop as a makeshift HDMI port since i dont have a tv right now
i know the answer is probably >dont play videogames off elgato
but still l'd like to know lol
Usually has some bit of a delay. I would suggest asking in #capture-cards
alright

just so i know, is there a possible chance the log in on the elgato site isnt working?
im trying to log in, when i hit submit it tells me i need to verify im not a robot, so i do that and i hit submit again, then i still keeps telling me i need to verify im not a robot
And have you ruled out the twitch account thingy that you had problems with last?
you mean the audio channels and vod?
Or maybe it wasn’t you, someone had issues logging in but used their twitchaccount
well i tried it on my phone its working
nope that wasnt me :)
well, next night go to bed early and not be on your phone :P
because when im on my phone in bed 2/3 hours pass easily
unless its because of a different reason
i feel you, i also have (chronic) back pain
But if you could log in on your phone, try a different browser on your pc and see if that helps
ill try, i could be because i have left my pc on for couple off hours without touching anything
Some extensions and vpn etc and cookieblockers can break stuff
I pretty much never turn off my PC 😛
just fully closed chrome and opened a fresh tab, working fine. should have tried that before asking :P
Oh yay
your task manager timer would be crazy
Right now it’s at 21 days, had some updates 😛
time to order some cool products now im logged back in :)
i need to reinstall windows probably, i have a update which it just doesnt want to install
My record was at 320 days like.. 20 years ago
dannggg
Then a powersurge, killed the motherboard and PSU and my record
but not the pc i hope
I had to replace most of it since the parts were old
Surprisingly hard to buy older generation motherboards that aren’t used
kinda a relief i would have if you know your planned on replacing/upgrading. if it were new i would cry and be sooo mad, cause why meeee
It taught me a lesson, I bought a surge protector
One of those 8port wallpower ones with slots for coax and phone lines even 😛
i would do so too if i ever get a expensive pc
Teeny tiny glass fuse in it that breaks instead of all your stuff
Much cheaper to replace a 50USD power brick than pc and monitors
Also, what are you ordering? :3
the wave mic arm wave dx as a bundle. and a separate xlr dock
im not sure about what profile mic arm i want so im just going to do the traditional high profile one
just made the order, and it got canceled immediately 🤨
any reasons why this could have happened?
Check through #official-tech-support , that's a question for customer service. Usually it'll be something like address problems or maybe they ran out of stock, or the like, but customer service are the only ones that will know why the system cancelled it.
Or the bank flagged it as potential fraudulent transaction
i need help setting up my capture card
I would suggest to try asking in #capture-cards
SKU on the order page works for a part number
as in the order number?
It'll probably be on the invoice, but it should also be on the page for the product you're trying to order - may be down in the tech spec like here
It might be optional as well - given you're trying to get order support, not tech support
It's been a while since I've filled out that form myself
no, it has a red star. so cant skip it :P
i selected a bundle for the mic arm and wave dx mic. do i need to get the sku for each product separatly?
i assume yes, if not i cant really seem to find it
If the bundle doesn't have a SKU, pick one and it should be fine. Since this is an order support should be able to get all the SKUs from the order with the order number
ok
Don't forget to check with your bank too, as someone else mentioned earlier. Eg, being in Canada myself my bank sometimes warns me about international orders for Elgato products - some banks may stop something like that outright if they consider it unusual behavior for you.
i have done a order before so i dont think that would be the case..?
i myself am from Europe
what webstore issue type suits my issue the best. i have now selected "order status"
and i did have successfully paid already, so the money has been taken from my bank account.
If it was cancelled it should be refunded automatically
I can't recall what the timeline is for that though
well the email said canceled
Most sites are something like within 24 hours here in North America, some up to 72 hours. But it may also depend on the bank used
Customer Service should have the answer on that when you can reach them
ok, well i hope and like you said assume it will be 2/3 (business) days?
That does imply the issue is on the Corsair/Elgato store end though
Probably, I'd ask support about it though when they get back to you about why it was cancelled
yea
Just to be safe. Like I said, I'm not 100% on that timeline
👍🏽
well i have made a support ticket, and maybe a bit double. but easier for me to response back faster because of school, I also contacted the support account on twitter
well see what comes out
thanks for the help today
Yo do I need chat link pro to talk
I can hear my game but when I’m going to start talking shi is tragic
I’m on Xbox series x
Help me odkdmcmgidoosoxdoeooeororo is a good 👍
quick question, is there any kind of ElGato wireless headphones or headset?
I assume the answer is a no because I can't find any, but just in case
No, Corsair is the motherbrand of Elgato and they make peripherals etc
oh, damn
ye no, I tried Corsair and they somehow fail at basic QOL features so nope
IDK for some reason they make some of the best cooling kits and PSUs and good RAM but as soon as there's UX in there, they go full "hold my beer"
Another option is to look at Drop.com. Drop is one of our sibling brands and they are the markplace for all our audiophiles and keyboard enthusiasts. 
Link, y u no work..
There we go. 
Disclaimer, a lot of expensive headsets are listed but that is cause they focus on the highest end audio electronics.
And professional studio electronics as well.
nice
I will be buying HD 650 soon unless a better option comes around the corner
HD 6xx unfortunately not available outside the US T_T
from what i see this website is also US only
unlucky
import taxes are too much to bring stuff overseas
that 2000$ HD 800s can be 2500€
Oh wow, that's a bummer. 
You can use it to browse different headsets at least and then look up over sites that may sell them?
I guess
I use Rtings to check reviews in general
and I know some people who are really adept audiophiles
ngl I'm not a big audiophile, sound quality is one of those things you never notice until you get the really good headset and use it for 1-2 weeks
and then you simply can't go back because low quality headsets become muddy and feel like you're missing sounds
but I'd rather tell me friend "your sound system sucks, mine's better" than "wow your sound system is so nice" ngl xD
I'm surprised though, that HD650 is still considered one of the best headphones not just for sound quality but also for its build
it was released over 2 decades ago... has literally nobody upgraded it in that time
either made it cheaper or better quality or more serviceable... IDK man
<@&581565551495741448> ☝️

I mean, if you’re really into being an audiophile, Sennheiser is also good.
ngl I've been using a 600 ohm pair of cans for 6 years and never had any complaints, despite not having amp nor capable DAC
so I'd say... not really 😄
but I like fancy stuff
I still need a pair of headphones I can drive through an SSL2, and I want whatever will sound good for me
I'd like if I said I'm gonna be using them 100% to the extent of their capabilities, but gaming and spotify are like 98% of my daily usage so there's that
the most specific task I believe I have is Rocksmith, and I guess just having an ASIO driver is all the features I need
I'm really happy with both my stream deck and wave 3 mic, so if there were Elgato headphones, I would definitely look into them
also Wave Link works much better with Elgato stuff
I be wearing Beyerdynamic DT770 Pros on stream
I know closed back headphones are frowned upon
Not by me
Haha
Headphones that don’t isolate make me feel…. Why aren’t we just using speakers? 😎
I only use openback for mixing, closed isolated for everything else xd
I've got an old set of HD558s that I use as my daily drivers on my computer. Not particularly high end in the grand scheme of things, but they work decently well
At some point when I can afford it, I really need to upgrade my audio setup tho. I have an old portable FiiO DAC that's driving them, and while it works it's also one of those things that feels slightly jank the way I have it set up
In the sense of audiophile equipment, anyways. $100-130ish MSRP is barely a drop in the bucket compared to some of the really good stuff
Audiophile equipment is the definition of a money pit. Once you get past the realm of "relatively affordable if not a bit expensive," you find yourself spending thousands of dollars on equipment trying to chase the white rabbit that is audio perfection
Same deal in the EU
Surely a couple hundred more dollars Euros on... *checks notes* cable risers to lift your electrical cables off your floor will improve your bass response by 0.2%
Not saying all higher grade equipment is snake oil, of course. The really good equipment tends to be expensive for a reason
But damn that stuff gets pricey fast
I'd post that one GIF from The Naked Gun if I could lmao
God I really hope the reboot they're doing is going to be good. I'm very cautiously optimistic
Apparently it's a bit of a hot take to say Police Squad was better than TNG, but it's a take I firmly and resolutely stand behind
Fun fact; I used to used closed-back headphones I got from CORSAIR
But then switched to Sennheisers open-back and never went back to closed
Until CORSAIR released their open-back and yeah, it’s worth + better than Sennheiser’s
headpats Isaac
Until the huge QOL problem the open-back Corsair headset has, the band gets messed up another a month of usage
Then now all of a sudden few weeks ago, I got Apple AirPod Max and I’m loving those now on the go/doing WFH 
How's the ANC on those?
Dunno, rarely used ANC cause my brain focuses on music instead of noise
More while listening to music, I mean
Apple generally does a good job at ANC on their stuff I find
On my Pros, I actually always have either transparency or ANC turned on because it legit adds a bit more vibrancy to the music being played
Not entirely sure why
I find ANC to give a highpitched noise
Uh, that’s prob your ear 
I do have tinnitus but a different pitch xd
I haven't had that particular issue with my AirPods, though I'm not particularly surprised about that
PC Gamer = Always a form of tinnitus 
I've only tried a couple ANC headphones, not apples
I think it really depends on the ANC implementation, yeah
Yeah, I'm fearing the day mine die
What Nintendo switch2 game is everybody looking forward to that pre-ordered? plans to get a switch 2?
Not sure tbh, I will if multiple games come out that I'm interested in that requires it and doesn't have a Switch1 version
You never did find your charger did you you do realize you can use a USB-C charger as long as it needs the wattage right?
Metroid Prime 4, though I can wait a bit

yeah
Me today!!!
Also, I used this meme at work for my colleague! She said she was snitching and telling everybody’s mom and I said this was her all day every day!!!

well my new elgtato wave:3 came today. now just gota figure out to set up the software, lmbo
Super easy
It’s not complicated, but there’s a lot of community resources here. It’s very easy.
yeah i know elgato mae grate products. see un boxings and reviews. but im impresed at packging even
sadly didnt have enough to pick ups shock mount or filter. but geting them next month. evently getting stream deck + with xlr dock then will get a wave dx. the dx would be my home mic, and wave 3 would be the travel mic in bag
serching the youtube videos for seting up mic so afk a bit. but happy to join the elgato family
hm no sound. wonder if windows made audio jack on mike default output
yesp windows made elgsato headphones jack default out
How tf
?

Yikes! Get some sleep!
Now that the HD60X is capturing at 120FPS, do we still need OBS? I'm a newbie.
Yes you do, obs is what records the actual video and audio.
hey Elgato, if you are looking for people to sponsor lol, let me know. I have sold 3 of you stream decks to friends in the last couple days. They are a must have.

Hi Isaac, how are you doing today? 

Dying

I'm not sure if this is appropriate to ask here, I'm not sure where else to ask in this discord. I want to ask people who also stream.
Has anyone been permanently banned on tiktok? I was banned for suicide and self harm when I streamed Buckshot roulette when it was popular. Many people were banned for it and not all of us got our live access back, I did around 2 months later.
However, since then my numbers have plummeted. I went from getting thousands of views per stream to maybe 200 total if I stream for 2 hours or more. I see random new accounts have 100s of viewers with mediocre set ups.
If you were in my position, were you able to recover and go back to normal? Or should I give up and try to start over?
I think of you have access still, just be mindful of what you put out there. You never know if you’re one poor choice away from loosing a sponsor’s/partnership scouting you. As a content creator, we are responsible for our voice, and what we put out to our community. If you keep this in mind, games you play included, and see if there is a stream friendly option as well, or if you’re a podcaster, etc… just maybe get those points out there with saying less via “implied” via key-point, and fact check without violating TOS. Just be mindful.
I had the notification, but I’m at work, and it’s been Business Meetings, Planning, Forecasting, O/U data before presenting tomorrow, a Team Meeting, and connecting with my Boss on chat, and Co-Worker/Backup on a call, and Manager/Sups outreach. So it’s just a busy day. 😅
You deserve some icecream :3
And an Elagto Rug. 
YAAAAASSSS!!!!
We can only hope that Julian etc makes the Elgato Rug a reality some day
because the meme is real
Maybe only at HQ…
I mean for a Merch Section on the website, Rugs, mugs, hats, socks, tshirts, sweatshirts etc
If they or Corsair need a WFM Senior Analyst… hehe I just might… Truth, I love my Team and where I work though… 

I had to turn off my Twitter DM’s 
Can wave XLR drive a Podmic usb?
Wave XLR is for XLR mics, the Podmic USB is a USB mic?
Ça fait cinq fois que j’essaye de faire passer ma commande au bout de 48 heures, elle se fait annuler
The Podmic usb can do XLR too
Oh, then yes.
And also get access to Wave Link software ;D
Ceci est un serveur anglophone et il est stipulé dans le règlement du serveur qu'on ne doit écrire qu'en anglais ici, je vous prierai donc de renvoyer votre message en anglais 
also what were you trying to order? this is not Customer Service so I guess for anything concerning your orders you should contact the support directly ? (correct me if I'm wrong mods/anyone who knows better)
That's correct, anything with orders should go through customer service (contact info in #official-tech-support ).
thanks Arcsane
Purchased a wave XLR for my Podmic usb
Happily will complement my stream deck and stream deck + I own
$178 from $200+ on Amazon
Podmic usb is not an xlr mic…
Ah ok! Good. Oh I see they have a little rubber plug in the picture.
Yeah haha looking forward to it should come this evening
hey just wondering if anyone knows if i have to look at my console through the elgato app from my hd60 x?
Amazon has to hurry up haha. I ordered a ton of Elgato gear and I’m so hyped to get it!! 
hiii, i've got an issue where my mic is making buzzing sound in wave link, its the last thing i have to fix and can't find anything about it... please help 🙂
Already have the Wave DX. Waiting on the Wave Mic Arm Pro, Wave DX, XLR cable, Stream Deck MK.2, and Facecam MK.2 on order!
got my wave xlr 😄
just downloaded the virtual stream deck and so far it looks really fun!!!
😄
tempted to get that corsair simitar to assign buttons to the deck haha
I'm much much more interested in the Corsair Xeneon EDGE Touchscreen when it comes out 😍
that does look really good!
I hope it won't be too expensive
i can see probably around $200
Some pages have it listed for a placeholderprice of 250, but we'll know when its actually released
oh nice, imagine using it with the network dock. since it displays things like time and stuff you could use it for like a touch screen house automation device

Happy Switch 2 launch day, to those partaking. May the upgrade work well with your setups. 
All my friends have gotten notice that they won't get theirs until the 9th, because they start shipping them today, so sad releaseday for them
I got lucky here, Best Buy had stock on hand. Given I didn't get there til like an hour after the store opened I did not expect that.
She’s ready!

WOOP WOOP
