Stream Deck
Since getting an Elgato Stream Deck, I can’t imagine working without it. Despite its name, the “Stream Deck” isn’t just for streaming—it’s an incredibly versatile and customizable tool. I use it for app and website shortcuts, setting timers, and handling specific functions in my DAW, like quantization, layouts, exporting, and monitoring. On top of that, it’s perfect for quick tasks like starting a work timer or triggering system backups. It’s a game-changer for both productivity and workflow efficiency.
Webcam
The Logitech C-925E is a great mid-budget webcam. It’s the best value-for-the-money HD / 30fps option out there, with effective light correction and autofocus. I also personally love that it has a privacy shade for peace of mind post-stream.
Mouse
This is another product I think I’m sold on for life — the Logitech G502 Hero. After replacing many mice over the years, I can confidently say that the hype surrounding the G502 Hero is absolutely justified.
Ever since investing in this mouse, I haven’t experienced hand fatigue at all. This thing has 11 customizable buttons, an adjustable weight system, and 1:1 tracking.
Desk Microphone
For my desk microphone, I wanted something that would be a great option for gaming with friends and streaming as well as something I could use to record decent vocals easily while working on music. Enter: The Sennheiser MK4; a nice mid-budget all-rounder! Check out how it sounds on my vocals here!
I love the vocal detail I can get out of this mic, and it picks up nicely even at a bit of a distance — I have mine about 14 inches from my mouth.
I have it paired with a Sennheiser desk-mounted 3-point boom arm.
