Elgato Stream Deck MK.2
The Elgato Stream Deck is a fantastically popular device that features up to 15 programmable buttons that streamers and content creators can use for any number of uses. The Stream Deck is an invaluable tool for many users, and now it’s being updated with a MK.2.
Featuring the same 15 programmable buttons and customizable icons, the Stream Deck MK.2 offers interchangeable faceplates, a detachable stand, and now uses a versatile and standardized USB Type-C port for connectivity. Now, your Stream Deck is even more personal and versatile. Stream Deck MK.2 is available now, along with several choices for faceplates, starting at $150.
Elgato Facecam
Elgato already offers the Elgato Multi Mount to make it easier to use the camera of your choice as a high-quality facecam, but now Elgato wants to make the process as painless as possible with their own official solution. The Elgato Facecam is a 1080p / 60 FPS camera that aims to offer the perfect experience for streamers with onboard memory for settings, easy setup and mounting, and an included privacy filter.
The Elgato Facecam also doesn’t include any built-in microphones, so you don’t have to worry about interference. The Facecam is all about “plug-and-play” convenience. Just like the Stream Deck MK.2, the Elgato Facecam is already available to purchase directly from Elgato, and will run for $200.
Wave XLR
The Wave XLR is a microphone interface and digital mixer, and aims to pair with your existing Elgato mic to offer you additional power and control that you otherwise wouldn’t have. It comes equipped with anti-distortion, a mic mute button, integration with Elgato’s Wave Link mixing software, customizable faceplates, a multi-function control dial, USB Type-C connectivity, and a way to connect your microphone and monitoring headphones.
The Wave XLR is available now for $160, and has a handful of customizable faceplates available for purchase as well. More faceplates will come in the future.
