Title: Razer’s new Stream Controller X looks like one of its biggest competitors Post by: HCK on April 15, 2023, 04:05:04 pm Razer’s new Stream Controller X looks like one of its biggest competitors
<p>Razer has launched a new streaming deck called the <a data-i13n="cpos:1;pos:1;elm:affiliate_link;sellerN:Razer;elmt:;" href="https://shopping.yahoo.com/rdlw?merchantId=d043077a-4ba1-4321-a933-30b8701d8d31&siteId=us-engadget&pageId=1p-autolink&featureId=text-link&merchantName=Razer&custData=eyJzb3VyY2VOYW1lIjoiV2ViLURlc2t0b3AtVmVyaXpvbiIsInN0b3JlSWQiOiJkMDQzMDc3YS00YmExLTQzMjEtYTkzMy0zMGI4NzAxZDhkMzEiLCJsYW5kaW5nVXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cucmF6ZXIuY29tL3N0cmVhbWluZy1hY2Nlc3Nvcmllcy9yYXplci1zdHJlYW0tY29udHJvbGxlci14IiwiY29udGVudFV1aWQiOiIxMDAxNDY5MS02N2I2LTQ0NWYtYWY1My05N2U2ZmFlM2YzZTUifQ&signature=AQAAAQIPHa0lbvGpSSs4-sHD8JmJmiv2-FsfY6Jrmx6v6tBF&gcReferrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.razer.com%2Fstreaming-accessories%2Frazer-stream-controller-x">Stream Controller X[/url], and it would most likely look familiar to experienced streamers and content creators. It has a very similar form factor to <a data-i13n="cpos:2;pos:1" href="https://www.engadget.com/loupedeck-live-versus-the-stream-deck-170020781.html">Elgato‘s Stream Deck MK.2[/url], with its 15 LCD switchblade key buttons and a face plate that users can easily swap. The bevel’s spacing is a bit different, though, and according to <a data-i13n="cpos:3;pos:1" href="https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/razer-stream-controller-x">Tom’s Hardware[/url], it’s just slightly smaller than Elgato’s model. While both streaming decks are priced $150 at launch, Elgato’s has been <a data-i13n="cpos:4;pos:1" href="https://www.engadget.com/amazon-elgato-stream-deck-mk2-deal-black-friday-220427220.html">on sale[/url] several times since then and has gone for as low as $120.</p><p>The Stream Controller X lets users program multiple actions into one button by dragging them into the custom action editor. Users can even program actions so that they can be triggered consecutively or simultaneously. They can also create custom profiles for various tasks and then automatically switch between them based on the program that’s currently open by enabling the Dynamic Mode. To make multi-tasking even easier, the device is compatible with some of the most popular streaming software and relevant tools, such as Twitch and Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. Those programs come with ready-made profiles, so users don’t have to create their own. </p><span id="end-legacy-contents"></span><p>Like <a data-i13n="cpos:5;pos:1" href="https://www.engadget.com/razer-stream-controller-loupedeck-180707882.html">Razer’s first Stream Controller[/url], the X model is still powered by Loupedeck. The older model was a rebadged version of the Loupedeck Live, though, and looks more like a distant cousin than a sibling to the Stream Controller X.</p><p><core-commerce id="3fcff03337ba4106be20b04ee9959528" data-type="product-list"></p><p></p>This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/razers-new-stream-controller-x-looks-like-one-of-its-biggest-competitors-071957109.html?src=rss Source: Razer’s new Stream Controller X looks like one of its biggest competitors (https://www.engadget.com/razers-new-stream-controller-x-looks-like-one-of-its-biggest-competitors-071957109.html?src=rss) |
