Cooler Master's MasterHub is Every Streamer's Dream

Every gaming lifestyle brand has a stream-control device in its lineup these days, but none even functionally close to the MasterHub by Cooler Master. This is a modular, highly customizable stream control panel, in which you can swap out modules to alter its layout and functionality. A base plate roughly the size of a 7-inch tablet has various contact points on top; you pick and choose the modules you need, and mount them on top of this dock.

Among the modules available are everything from a 15-key Lebdev pad, to one with a 5-pole fader, to one with rotary knobs, to another with drum rollers, to another with a puck-shaped touchscreen. You can mix and match them as you need, and everything is programmable using the MasterHub app. You can even have multiple modules of the same kind—think two Lebdev pads worth 30 keys; or as many MasterHubs as you want. The base plate aggregates all modules into a single USB-C connection to your PC.

If there are 3rd party profiles(SideshowFX) then it would be helpful for whole bunch of productivity applications other than just streaming.

The thing to look out for with any devices like these is the software. How good is the base software in terms of built-in features and stability? Is it easy to develop and publish plugins for third-party software/hardware? No matter how innovative the hardware is, the software support needs to be there too.

Looks like they're trying to imitate Elgato
