Elgato's Stream Deck Pedal Adds Hands-Free Control for PC Tools - PCMag

Elgato is putting more control at streamers’ fingertips—or should we say toes—with the launch of the Stream Deck Pedal.

The $89.99 Stream Deck Pedal connects to Mac and Windows PCs and provides hands-free control for just about every action available on the standard Elgato Stream Deck.

Though the pedal has just three controls, Elgato explains that with Multi Actions “any number of actions can be stringed together, assigned to one pedal, and triggered intermittently or all at once.” An example Elgato provided was one pedal press taking a screenshot, opening the folder where the screenshot was saved, and launching Twitter to streamline the sharing process.

Since the Stream Deck Pedal can connect using up to a 16-foot USB-C cable, you don't have to be sitting at your desk to use it. "Go live, toggle cameras and more, without reaching for your PC," Elgato says.

The hands-free nature of the Stream Deck Pedal also allows it to serve as an accessibility tool for those who may not be able to use the Stream Deck’s manual controls, The Verge notes.

Elgato says the Stream Deck Pedal can also be used in-game as an extra set of controls, in presentations to move through slides, and with various editing software. With Smart Profiles, the actions assigned to each pedal can automatically change depending on the app you're running on the computer. Users can also also customize the feel of the pedal with different springs that come in the package.

The product announcement comes alongside the launch of Elgato's official Discord Stream Deck plugin, which can toggle mic mute, toggle deafen, push-to-talk, push-to-mute, and join and leave voice or text channels.

The Stream Deck Pedal is available now, and should ship in one to two weeks.
