On today´s post I am going to explain you how to integrate Voicemeeter and Stream Deck. This integration will allow you to have the complete control of your computer´s audio from the Stream Deck.

What is Stream Deck?

Elgato´s Stream Deck, is a programmable keyboard that will allow you to control a lot of applications and execute complex commands from a physical keyboard.

It also helps you to type in very comples combos of keys only by pressing a single button.

Is use this keyboard to control Affinity Designer, that is the vectorial design software that I use, Affinity Photo or even OBS, the software in which I record the tutorials.
