Elgato Stream Deck Studio
The Best of Show Award for ISE 2025 goes to Elgato’s Stream Deck Studio.
At ISE 2025, the world’s premier professional AV and broadcast exhibition, Elgato, a brand of CORSAIR, announced that Stream Deck Studio has won the coveted Best of Show Award. Acknowledged for its revolutionary live production control innovation, Stream Deck Studio is redefining efficiency and usability in the broadcast sector.
Stream Deck Studio, created in partnership with Bitfocus, combines the flexibility of Buttons software with a 32-key LCD control panel and rotary encoders for simple, in-the-moment modifications. Because it is scalable, programmable, and designed for contemporary IP-based processes, operators can handle complex productions with far less work.
Less than six months after its launch, Stream Deck Studio is already improving control room operations, cutting setup time, minimising errors, and simplifying workflows globally. It works well with all production environments because it supports NMOS, tag-based routing, and IP-based broadcasting.
The fact that Stream Deck Studio won Best of Show at ISE 2025 highlights their contribution to the development of live production. Elgato keeps pushing the envelope as the industry shifts to software-defined control, providing broadcast professionals with a potent solution that adapts to their changing needs.
