The short version

The Stream Deck XL is Elgato's 32-key LCD controller with a USB-C cable and USB 2.0 interface, aimed at complex streaming and production setups that need more actions in view at once. Elgato markets it for advanced live production, with triggers for apps such as OBS Studio, XSplit and Streamlabs. It has no dials or touch strip and takes up more desk space than the 15-key model. It suits streamers and editors whose workflows have outgrown a smaller deck.

    Critical

    An owner found that Stream Deck macros and the BarRaider plugin fail to trigger Nvidia instant replay saves in Delta Force, though the same setup works in other games.
