They just released a wireless version a few days ago! Your video was so well made and helped me decide that this was the right macropad for me. Thank you so much, you've definitely earned a sub! 😄

absolutely underrated channel, was stunned to see this video didn't come from some big tech youtuber!! I'll be sure to pick one of these up for myself too, thank you for this video :)

Would love a run through of your entire desk setup. You've got some cool stuff there!

This guy is gonna get big

Your production quality and narration is absolutely top notch. Keep it up.

I don't have this particular one, but I tried using another competitor version. Pros: shortcuts and mapped keys are great. It reduces the amount of mouse clicking. Cons: It's just another device on your desk. Eventually in my experience, I went back to just plain old keyboard and mouse. You really have to be committed to using it and memorizing all the set keys in order for it to be a part of your workflow. For me, I edit photos and the best shortcut I have are presets, one click and I'm off to the next set of photos.

I would love a video on all the ways to use a macro pad because for someone like me who is conpletely new to macro pads idk where to start plus it seems like something you can put together very nicely

Love it man, found your other video today by chance. I'm subbed, gonna see how you progress. I have a very similar WFH setup, and edit from home so I feel like I'm right in the demographic.

Pretty swank looking! One device that you might want to check out is the Huion KD100. I've been using it for the past couple months, and I've been blown away with how efficient it could be. It doesn't look as nice as this, the keys are only scissor switch, and it only has one dial, but it can be used wirelessly via USB receiver. I'm able to make different shortcuts for the various software I can use via the driver Huion uses. I haven't configured it in DaVinci Resolve and Audacity, but that dial it uses looks like it'll be useful there as well.

This channel and the videos are made so great keeps you intrigued and yet giving you great quality information and devices to daily use.

Amazing video quality, honest take on pros and cons, with tips and examples. Most of the videos in this genre just aim to sell something and come off as elitist and narcissistic but you feel more genuine and down to earth.

I swear all the products you’re reviewing are ones I’ve been looking at. Thank you for the great content and overviews. Easy sub.

Just got the same DOIO macro pad month ago and I'd like to say it really gives me a boost in creative process. Love the wheels.

I definitely wanna see more macropad reviews from you! I've been considering like a 9-key one as a sort of low profile gaming peripheral to WASD and use a couple alternate keys. Not sure what to get tho!

Very clear and quality video man! Just stumbled upon your video and im for surely gonna stick around!

this is a great video...totally doesn't seem like a 200 subscriber channel video! quality is great! Keep up the good work and you got a new sub!

Man, the production quality of your videos is just insane! (and now I bought Spotify Thing + Macro pad ahah)

I’m so hooked. I dont even want one of these and I’m watching this video. Great work.

Found this channel today! Seriously can't wait for more!

Just received the Megalodon 16 key pad. A little disappointed that it didn't come with a manual and the Doio website doesn't seem fleshed out. I really appreciate your video so I can learn more about my newest little gadget.

What a great video, helps A LOT in the beginning.

such a well made video. you deserve more subs and views

I've got Keychron V10 with extra 5 macro button and it's very useful. Copy, paste, select all, find, and alt+tab are now just one click button, just 5 button but bring more speed and happiness 😅. Macropad is my next investment for my desk setup.

Overall reviews that he did is perfect showing the pros and cons. Not bias at all. this guy will gonna get big hopefully not his head keep it up I trust in you. 😎👍🏻

The "fanmade" VIAL firmware is much better. especially as it shows the knob and rotation direction. Sadly its not mirrored, otherwise it would be great to use as a lefthanded macropad. [I know this from building my own 4x4 macropad with a RP2040] Which has room for 10 layers, and over 50 macro's [tapdance, combokey's etc]

Great video, I have this on order with Drop and just waiting on mine to ship.

Thank you a lot for this high quality review. I have a small desk and when painting digitally i always had to bend over in order to reach the keyboard. I just now got the Macropad and am really exited to see how smooth it will integrate in my workflow. What i‘ve tried so far is working brilliant (basic windows shortcuts). I‘ve seen people worrying about not being able to remember the keybinds, but once you used it a few times you should be able to do it blindly, as everyone also does type without looking at the keyboard, right?

What a clean video and presentation. 🤯

Love this. Just got one in this week for premiere/davinci. How do you setup these macros?

You, my friend, have just earned my subscription. Get sponsorships cuz I will support these awesome gadgets.

Nice video man! Insane quality for such a small channel, keep it up! Could sou do a setup-tour video or sth like that? I would love to know what this pop-filter for the yeti mic is. I have been trying to find good accessories for it but havent been successful…

I may have missed it in the review or in the comments, but can the rotary encoder be used to scrub the timeline?

great idea, can build it much cheaper but for productivity this product as a whole looks great and I believe the price is totatly worth it

Finally another cool video.

Very well made video mate.. Easiest subscribe button I’ve clicked since ages, keep it up!

Great video dude! Very engaging.

crazy good quality and entertaining came from you other video and had to watch this one too

Here before this guy reaches 1 mil subs awesome content keep pushing more

the videos are sick man

Streamdeck can be priced similarly and actually shows you what you're about to push instead of you having to remember 120+ keys yourself.

This perfect to use on my mpc 2 software. It will make my MacBook work like a mpc .

How did create a macro to apply a Premiere Pro effect with 1 click? Is it a premiere pro shortcut or is this something with in the software?

Thanks for the review I've been looking into this. I got the same mouse. What brand is that sliding wrist rest? Thanks

Your channel is awesome. subbed and liked. looking forward for future content.

I've never heard of a macro keyboard until today. Once I get a good setup, and some muscle memory, I think this will make programming CAD/CAM & NC way more fluid.

The Megalodon's minimal and finished nicely w/ useful keys.

Thank you for the review! Could you please tell us more, about how you set up a knob to work as the scrubber in Premiere? I couldn't find any advice anywhere. Thank you!

Hi, what's your mapping for having effects applied with a macro? I see it searching in the effects panel, but I have no found a way to get it on the clip itself.

Can you make a dedicated video on how to you can use this with Video editing software? How program knobs, Shortcuts, macros etc

Bumped into your channel today. Excellent video content. My cluttered, disorganized desk will thank me for tuning in.

Nice detail, and quality video :) and a great desk setup! Where did you get the nice little tray in the back left corner of your desk, around 2:37 ?

Subbed! Great content bro, getting a lot of inspiration for my own setup. Wanted to ask, are you able to swap out the keycaps for this?

I got my hands on the Xencelabs Quick Keys, and I really like using it for video editing.

A keyboard that uses VIA could have the spacebar programmed for spaceFn, which would access extra layers for macros without moving your left hand. But I get it, macro pads are pretty cool. Great video!

I just bought this model and it came in but i was struggling eith the customization soo bad on via. Do you have a video how you do it or can you make one.

While the macropad is very cool, what's got my attention is that beautiful monitor arm. I've got a similar monitor - could you share what kind of arm you're using to hold it up? I've got one already but honestly it feels like it's barely able to hold the damn thing up so I've got it resting on some speakers as well to distribute the weight.

Mine just shipped and I cant wait to try it along my keyboard Decided to get it in pink

I am interested in your keyboard around 4:30 and the clear rest. Where to get them?

I personally love my shuttle pro v2, it is less known but most powerfull than many macro keyboard

I've been using a razer tartarus for years so the idea is good. I'd like one more vertical row of keys and some sort of space bar for thumb. That would get you ctrl shit esc on the left row, WASD the rest, and can add macros to that. That's the way I use the tartarus for everything

I'd be curious to know how it works from the software side. I thought it might look like a second keyboard, but how do applications feel about getting input from more than one keyboard? Do they care? If they do care, then you'd to "inject" keypress messages from device 2 into device 1. This can happen at any point before the application receives the event. On first principle it's worth exploring the productivity gains macros themselves give you before buying a new piece of hardware. However in my experience specialized hardware definitely encourages different behavior so its probably still worth getting. This can also point you in the direction of an interesting category of software, which are the keyboard enhancers. These utilities give you "universal shortcuts" that work in any application that accepts text input - like Karibiner or to a lesser extent Hammerspoon (both macOS, I'm sure there are equivalents for the others).

Hi ! This macropad works on Ipad pro? Thank you for your clarification

Thank you for this! What is the thing for the heel of your mouse hand?

hope you get a bunch of followers! from the channel name to the content it caught my eye right away great job!

Dont forget that VIA writes directly to the board so it saves your macros even if youre using a different PC. VIA also doesnt run in the background and now has a web app so you dont need to install anything

Nice device! What is the type of keycaps on your main keyboard by the way?

Love your channel - in your vid (6:10) it shows an ergonomic mechanical keyboard. Can you share a link?

Does it have app specific profiles that change automatically when the app window is active?

Hey Nick, what's the keyboard that is with the ALICE layout?

Thanks for this video! I’ve seen a few of your reviews now and they’re very helpful. However I was wondering, out of the XENCELABS Quick Keys and Megalodon Macropad which one would you say is best for color grading? My main goal with buying a control surface like this is to have a knob that can give me good tactile control over adjusting highlights/shadows/color wheels, etc. Do these control surfaces allow the knob to be used for that in Premiere?

Is the large encoder smooth turning or notched? Great video btw.

Hi - Great video, can you please explain the macro for opening then minimising a program? I'm struggling with my macro just opening a new version of the program and can't get it to maximise/minimise after opening. thanks.

It would be amazing to see another video where you break down how you set yours up, for those of us brand new to VIA.

Can we set the knob into forward and reverse program when editing videos? Thanks

love this channel

Have you tried using it in OBS/Streamlabs/Prism in place of Stream Deck or Loupedeck?

Awesome setup and video! Can you share the json file with your macro setup? I'd love to get it working with Premier, but I don't know how...

I feel StreamDeck has the right idea with the little screens. I wish they would add Rotary encoders though.

Please make a video about the stream deck for productivity, really interested on how you would use it since its really versatile

first macro pad I've seen that's actually worth the price.

Hey, does VIA/VIAL support profile per software / auto-detect which software you're on?

Can you program the knob to change the slide(s) in Photoshop/Lightroom/Camera Raw?

Wow this video is so so good

What is the mouse wrist support you use?

I love your video❤ Compare to tourbox elite which more expensive three times, which one you prefer to buy? megalodon macropad could totally replace tourbox? If not, why not?

Hi, I just buy Megaladon. But I really struggling setup on VIA. The knob setting with Macros is not working, like Zoom in out or scrubbing on the Premiere pro. Can you teach me how to setting it?

Can you use the knobs as an audio controller? Using one for main pc volume, one for discord, and one for music?

Damn, companies should pay you. You're a master sales man.

I buy this Macro pad most interesting, and there are any recommend for custom keycaps compatible? Ps: I'm artist as I need this macro pad. I have old wacom expresskey but it's broken wireless and issues battery after I used few times of wacom expresskey I feeling don't like wacom expresskey, it's not helpful.

gat video mate. Is there any chance you can share your wallpaper with s? it is phenomenal !!

whats the Mic arm that you have? looks cool

nice. Can this knob be dynamically used to control values in any levers like brightness, contrast within an app like Photoshop?

How did you get the knob to controll the playhead in Premiere?

Good One was looking the other day for a Solution. Thank you @youtube for the Alogo. Fine Content Quality. Can you tell me where to get this Keyboard Hand Rest ?

The Contour Design - Shuttle Pro and Shuttle Xpress are like this, but look nicer (too me). They are older, so compatibility might be iffy. I love these kind of devices because they can boost productivity/efficiency.

Only 1 min into video but the editing is great. Good cuts, and I like the "slideshow esque" transitions

Can you provide the macros you are using to maximize, minimize, and open a program

Curious if you can put custom key caps on it?

I am looking for a knob that can be used for changing playback speed of videos on UKposts channels. I find it a hassle to have to click on the speed controls to increase playback speed. And sometimes it is overshot and I have to rollback a couple of seconds. I wonder if the Macropad solves this problem, so I can immerse more on the content and less on speed control navigation.

I just don't understand. How is it possible to have 150 subs and such quality content?
