Elgato Gives More Personality to its Streaming Gear at Computex 2024

Elgato, Corsair's game streaming and content creator-focussed brand, showcased its latest portfolio of Stream Deck control panels, mics, lighting, and boom armatures, except they're all so colorful and themed. We've seen not just Elgato, but even Corsair, pivot to customization, with its Corsair Custom Lab service. Elgato has its Wave 3 microphones in close to a dozen new design collections, and its Stream Deck control panels in eight of them. Most notably, their Fallout collection that they recently announced.

Elgato also showed off its next-generation Neo series of Stream Deck, Wave microphone, Facecam, and Key Light. These come in a silvery-white finish, and a more compacted design. The Stream Deck Neo features eight programmable buttons, each with a higher resolution OLED display, and a rectangular display called the Infobar. Although designed for its core market of game streamers, Elgato is also targeting the home-office crowd with this device. It is priced at $99.99. The Facecam Neo is a high-performance 1080p 60 Hz HDR webcam with a 26 mm 1:2.0 autofocus lens, and a CMOS sensor. The central theme behind the Neo series carries on, and this webcam is targeted as much toward the home-office crowd as it is at game streamers.
Fancy crystal clear audio to go with this video? There's the Wave Neo, a desktop mic priced at $90, which hopes to transform your voice in meetings and streams. It's a huge step-up from the notebook or webcam-integrated mic, and is also a fairly big upgrade from headset mics. The Wave Neo not just supports a desk stand that comes included, but also boom arms. The mic integrates a pop filter, background noise-cancellation, and has a large mute button. It plugs into your PC over USB.

Infobar looks pretty cool. I've thought about picking up a Stream Deck for a while but can't reasonably see myself using a 3x2btn like the Mini or a standard 5x3btn deck unless I'm doing desktop. VR domain kind of makes the utility of these tools prohibitive but there's definitely a need for it. Just can't figure out how to make that happen.
