With all that it is still a great product. instead of remembering how to compile stuff with a long command line you can just remember in a button. works great with VNC so also under linux (through vnc) you can use it.
Pros:
- Beside the presets for several creativity tools I have - which come out of the box - I have also found some more profiles from other companies in the web (e.g. on1 - limited, but something is there) which is awesome.
- With 6 programmable & rotatable knobs and a jog shuttle like controller +12 programmable buttons and so on really nice to adjus to your own liking!
- With the nice task assignment functionality I was able to even use the device for other use cases (e.g. programming tools, app launcher, etc.)
- Adding it behind a KVM let you share easily the device with multiple computers and each computer can have its own set of settings!
- Uses USB-C - nice!
Downs:
- Not cheap!
- Do not expect to get support for Lightroom 6 or before - or any non CC Adobe products. That would be really awesome - but those versions are apparently not supported (anymore). Makes you really wonder.
- The support for Capture one is in there - and it is claimed that e.g. version 20 would be supported, but many functions do not work for the old version (even on the first screen). If you want to have nice display buttons and more controls you can buy the presets from another company for 35$. It's not that I do not want to earn more folks some money - but if you pay more than 500$'s you would guess that this is somehow included?
- I couldn't see problems reported by other testers - however - I can see that with a lower viewing angle on the display in front of the monitor, the LCD display has a shimmering effect like oil in the water (rainbow pattern - starting with <60 degrees angle which is really a lot narrower than you would think). Not necessarily a showstopper but it is clearly annoying.
- When adding app shortcuts (under "Run") you should not use quotes around the file names (like when copying them from Windows shortcuts) as these quotes will make the extcutable path unusable. So remove.
Comments:
- I did test on Windows so far, not on Mac yet. Only saw that the device didn't came on when it was connected over the lightning cable behind a KVM. But I didn't install the SW there yet.
- Plan to watch some of the training videos (~20 minutes total) and it will help you to safe a lot of time later on as some things are not as obvious from the getgo but are getting really good to understand once you have heard the explanation.
- Once you have set it up you can save your profile. You can then apply the same profile to another computer, correct the paths if neccessary and you are done!
General verdict:
The device is really useful and helped me to optimize my workflow for many things - and it is also a great eye catcher for sure.
Plan to take some time to get into the device and all the controls to learn how it is getting used! E.g. I did not realize first that you can use a swipe on the display to advance to the next page.
And - of course: It is quite a lot of money.

We have used sound boards designed for audio recording to perform similar functionality to the loupdeck up until a week ago.. My counsel of 8 years finally broke so I decided to try this.
We used open source programs to set up our old system. It was a lot of work. However, The result was a nearly doubling the speed of editing without a sacrifice in quality.
The reason we stayed on that platform was the programmability of each button to each of our photographers styles and workflow.
This loupdeck CT has taken all these same benefits and put them into a excellent little device. It's built well. The preset functions are intuitive. Programing is easy. Even after nearly a decade of my mustle memory being use to my old setup I have found the transition to this setup great! I'm still slower than the old one but I can tell that will change fast and it's a matter of learning a little more.
Rember when you get a device like this, it's built to perform a complex task everyone does a little differently. The learning curve will be hard. Don't get frustrated, it's like a musical instrument. At first you will be slow and it will sound horrible. But after time things will get better and once you get used to using it you will love it. Remember, your other hand hasent been doing much until you plug something like this is. You are able to move digital Lightroom sliders by hand and there are lots of them. Take your time.
Like anything that is made to perform complex tasks you won't just go at 100% out of the gate!

Una vez que te acostumbras a usarla y la configuras dependiendo el ritmo de tus ediciones ya no volverás a usar tu teclado en su mayoría y te ahorrara mucho tiempo ya que puedes tener bastantes atajos o incluso crearlos para optimizar tus tiempos.
Fue una compra que vale la pena por completo.

Od kilkunastu lat pracuję zawodowo jako Motion Designer i Compositing Artist w Adobe After Effects, Cinema 4D itp. Poprosiłem żonę, że na urodziny chciałbym Elgato Stream Deck+. I go dostałem. Urządzenie wykonane świetnie. Nie ma się do czego przyczepić, prócz ilości przycisków i pokręteł. Tego jest zdecydowanie za mało.
Po kilkunastu dniach zabawy apetyt wzrósł i postanowiłem sprawdzić Loupedeck CT. Marzenie wielu kreatywnych twórców, ale średnio osiągalne ze względu na cenę.
Kurier dostarczył paczkę. Czułem się podekscytowany. Rozpakowałem, podłączyłem i ….
No właśnie. Jakość wykonania samej obudowy spoko. Ogólny look świetny. Ale ten wyświetlacz to porażka po całości. Pierwszy iPhone z 2007 roku miał lepszy ekran. Kolory wyświetla na niebiesko, słaba rozdzielczość, kąty widoczności nie do zaakceptowania. I tak patrzę na tego Stream Deck+ i oczom nie wierzę co tu poszło nie tak. W Elgato wyświetlacz to bajka. Nie jest jakiś super Hi Res ale aż się chce na to patrzeć.
No dobra, wyświetlacz to nie wszystko. Przyciski. Bardzo słabe, trzeszczą. Nie są to przyciski jakie znane są np z klawiatury Logitech MX, którą bardzo chwalę.
Idziemy dalej.
OPROGRAMOWANIE.
Posiadam Mac Studio z procesorem M2 Ultra, 128 GB RAM i powiem wam że jestem bardzo zawiedziony z szybkości działania oprogramowania Loupedeck.
Czuć od pierwszej chwili, że wciąż jest emulowane poprzez Rosseta 2. I tak rzeczywiście jest, o czym można przeczytać na stronie producenta.
Przez kilka dni próbowałem używać Loupedeck CT z After Effects i jest tragedia. Kręcenie pokrętłem to jeden wielki LAG. Kręcę by przewijać timeline. Kończę kręcić tym pokrętłem a timeline przewija mi się jeszcze sam przez kilka sekund. Tego samego nie doświadczam w Elgato Stream Deck+.
Przypisałem sobie kilka skrótów na ekranie dotykowym. Raz działają, raz nie. Więcej frustracji niż polepszenia warunków pracy.
2 razy rozpakowywałem go w pudełka by jeszcze dać szansę i definitywnie spakowałem go i zwróciłem.
Na biurku zostaje Elgato Stream Deck+. Mimo że ma mniej przycisków, mniej pokręteł to działa tak jak trzeba. Posiada wyświetlacz na który chce się patrzeć.
Uważam że Loupedeck to zmarnowana szansa świetnego urządzenia. Może Logitech, które kupiło Loupedeck w połowie 2023 roku zrobi coś nowego, coś jakościowo zgodnego z ich standardem. Na to liczę i czekam. Tymczasem cieszę się z użytkowania Elgato SD+.
