Macro keypads like Elgato’s Stream Deck and Razer’s Stream Controller are mostly a niche geared towards streamers (it’s in the name), but such devices can also be repurposed for the content creation process. Logitech’s MX Creative Console is the answer for that – with some extra buttons and knobs for users who swear by apps like Photoshop or Premiere Pro.

The MX Creative Console is split into two parts: one is a macro keypad like you’d find in the devices mentioned in the beginning of this article; while the other part is where you get a knob, a roller (jog wheel), and four buttons. They can be mapped into practically anything, but Logitech said the integration with Adobe’s Creative Cloud apps should streamline the workflow via ‘tailored plugins’. Integration for other apps, meanwhile, can be obtained through Logitech Options+ app.

The device is currently sold for $200 (~RM826), which is similar to the price of a Stream Deck that has a similar feature set, though Logitech’s implementation is more friendly for the content creation process given its variety of control surfaces. As of this writing, we have yet to see the product listed in Malaysia just yet, so it’s likely taking a while before you see one on the store shelves here.

Pokdepinion: I can see this being the better option for creators.
