For an editor, he does great in front of the camera as well
napkinman1 True, being in front of the camera isn't for everyone but he seems very natural on camera.
Go watch "superconductivity as fast as possible" for me being awkward AF in front of the camera.
he's a natural. I don't think he even knows it. Probably feels very self conscious but much like many nerdy/geeky (and I use that term in a positive way, I'm a nerd!) as soon as you give them a subject they care about. They can make the best videos you'll ever find if you want to know stuff rather than pass the time waiting for some drama.
Taran Van Hemert Good Job on the video Macro Key King.
Taran Van Hemert
First of all, great advertisement. I just went back to look at the video, but i couldn't help but to notice a few things, it is 3½ years old with no background sound or visuals with a rather bland topic in my opinion. Plus your will always be biased towards your own performance. - Comparing the two, the older is obviously worse, but i wouldn't call either of them "awkward AF", you do seem to feel more confident in yourself in the latest video though. Keep it up.
Taran:
10% working
90% making work easier
Durv2 ok
Me:
10% Streaming
90% Buying Gear, Setting Up Widgets, Creating Custom Graphics, and Fiddling with Audio Settings
10% doing exams
90% making exam easier (studying)
@@tronix2125 You're doing it wrong. You should br making studying (e.g. learning) easier ;)
Well work on your tools longer that makes your work easier for every day
So, Taran requested sleep mode - We got sleep mode. Taran requested GIF's - We got gifs :)
Elgato seems to watch their videos I guess
@@thearbinator2487 Elgato sponsored this vid I guess, also most of the companies that send stuff to linus and staff want them to actually say what they think and what could be better
Taren requested multiple decks per computer.
We got multiple decks per computer.
@@Ben_R4mZ We did?
@@Ben_R4mZ We did?
It’s funny because almost every thing you suggested, like GIF support, multiple stream decks, etc. is now totally in effect. I just got mine, and am learning more cool stuff it does every day!
Just what I wanted to hear. 🍻Ordering mine today.
I saw this video when it was released. Now I realised that almost everything he complained about has been addressed. Even the cable length!! It is now detachable and you can use whatever cable you want in the Mk.2.
Currently using it, both as numpad, and to keep all my japanese typing shortcut key.
Taran.. make more videos please :(
TARAN IS FINALLY BACK!!!!!
He has a channel with videos.
Isn't he always working for LTT behind the scene?
Bo Gao yes
Ye
FUCK YESSSSSSSS
After recently buying one i'm mad I didn't buy it sooner.
Lol I just got mine today... I feel you
shows flip phone keypad and one on the keyboard for the pc and laptop saying it's waiting for it like your mouse is. leaves after making it for the game controllers as well for universal input for full pc on pc and mobile and consoles in cross-play to any device playing said program or game.
I feel bad you wasted your money on it. Touch portal exists and it does everything better, faster, cheaper and fundamentally does more and can do more in future compared to the elgato trash
@@emerson-biggons7078 didn't Touch Portal Launched in 2018? A year after (technically a couple of months actually but still) this review and the same year of this comment?
@@emerson-biggons7078 touch portal is in the pc, the stream DECK is better since it is way quicker than opening a software to open another software. elgato is the best stream deck. everything you said is correct only if the roles were flipped. elgato aint trash
Taran is like James May of LTT
I was wondering who Taran reminds me of
And Linus is like Jeremy Clarkson when he does stupid things lol.
The only thing left for him to say is "how hard can it be?"
@@TheMC1X POWERRRRR!
@@bas2085 Clarkson!!!!!!!
@@TheMC1X so who's Hammond?
Finally one script that fits the person presenting it
Very cool Taran! Please let Taran do more videos Linus!!!!
It's impossible, I'm afraid. If Taran is too far from his macros for too long, he shrivels up, so Linus can only let him out for about an hour every few months.
That would be Bike stuffs or Macro stuffs
He does robotics as well...
All hail the king of macros!
Well technically almost every video is a Taran video, as he's the core of the editing team. I do agree though, his insight into non-standard tech items are quite good.
Host by Taran, Edit by Taran..... HOOOOOOOHHH DA MAN
He wrote it too...
Broewnis Travel Written by Taran
Recorded by Taran.
@@TheManWhoSoldThe-World They had Brandon behind the camera
he's like a one man band he does every ting (and good too)
Right now, I realised, that this Video is exactly 3 Years old.
Crazy how fast, the time goes.
Snap, just watched this video for the first time after buying a Stream deck the other day.
I think taran should do more videos.
id like brandon to do more too
Poor Taran, he's already under so much pressure
This was great. Good job Taran!
I like it
Seriously that was quality content.
Dude more reviews from you. Highly informative. And honestly pleasant to view/listen.
This was one of the best LTT review videos that has come out in a LONG time. Great job Taran, he really flexed those video editing skills in this video.
thanks for letting taran out of his workspace linus, and letting him make a video
i don't even care about this product but this was an AMAZING REVIEW
amazingly critical, i love when someone points out even the most mild flaws in a product, none of which are deal breakers but it's still nice to know, bring Taran on more often PLEASE !!!
amazing presentation, personality, tone, delivery and knowledge
right up there with Linus and Luke
keep up the good work !!!
He reKt lego with their Mind Storm check out his review of t.
I always love Tarans Tech related videos. He’s straight to the point. We need him doing this more. We want Taran!
This was a really good review because you know exactly what to use it for and even look for more than meets the eye :D
Holy shit, do you actually remember where all your macro keys are with now 2 and a half full keyboards of just macro keys? I feel like I'd forget where they were, or that I even made some of them.
You don't see the notes taped over all of the keys? You'd probably get used to it after a while.
he makes all the video's for ltt so working everyday with those he get used to it
Sure, but you still need to read them, and most have full words or multiple words. It'd still be like one of those giant word search puzzles, and even then you might not even be looking at the right keyboard.
Your comment is why you aren't a professional video editor. Get good scrub. If you think ONLY 2 keyboards AND an external deck is "too much to remember" is why you aren't the "Senior Director of"....well..... anything!
CriticoolHit well, it's 2 additional keyboards, so 3 keyboards, plus 2 additional external decks. I'm willing to bet that's on the high side, even for most video editors.
This right here is a recipe for a great video. Give the topic to someone who is really passionate about it and uses the product/service daily. That's why Taran's videos are always so good and to less extent (just my personal bias) Brandon's about cameras. That's why I like listening Linus talk about the company's history, business ideas etc. on WAN Show. All other videos are good, but not really that interesting, scripted by one person, somewhat mindlessly presented by the other.
Dang this comment is under rated o agree
Yes yes yes
yeah you can definitely tell when someone cares about what they are saying
Yes!
Taran is awesome, you should definitely do more videos, a desk tour in particular. I am both intrigued and envious of your peripheral game.
Even though I use literally no hotkeys in my work ever, I love Taran's videos. Theyre almost artisan. So cool seeing what professionals use to improve workflow

Jezus Taran,
Does LMG pay you enough for your efficiency at your job? xD
One at a time...
The amazing things aren't the macros, even i can make them, but the fact that he can remember them and actually use them efficiently.
World's first vertical tech video: ua-cam.com/video/68ptolHFkgM/v-deo.html
Pro tip: hold ur phone in potrait mode and then press full screen button.
If they paid him enough they would go bankrupt
Probably spends all his time making macros and never actually edits any video...
Taran needs to do more videos :P
Lol noob i play growtopia
HAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHHAA
Foxbit LinusTechTips? Nah, TaranTechTips!
Damn this badass plays growtopia
Agree he’s my favorite! Smart guy and funny. Dennis is funny too
i absolutely love that pretty much every feature you mentioned wanted they now have. Id like to think they listened.
Best Taran video by miles. Hell of a video and great hosting.
Mom, I'm famous!
Also great review, Taran.
As you should be! dest documentation of OBS anywhere!
EposVox me too bruh
Crabbisaurus Thanks :)
Don't ask OBS devs of their opinion though LUL

Why would I buy the sennheiser headphones if it doesn’t even support GIFs
man all of the features are here now
nice
thanks taran
Not all, you still need to download the image from the editor and then upload to the deck.
lol I love Taran. Also, I love the backhanded segway into the sponsor at the rear end of the video. Props for making it work anyhow *gives respect*
I feel like I am the only person that would want te be Taran in the future. I like how smart that he is and how he has never been mean on camera (I watch channel super fun aswell). We love you Taran!
Wesley vandeurzen indeed you are.
He is way better presenter than linus.... I bet he also wrote his own scripts...
Evert Chin I bet one of Taran's scripts wrote it
"way better" talk exaggeration.
Oh man I love Taran's videos. The quality of your videos is superb!
Good job Terran. I'm impressed at how good you were at hosting (or whatever you call it) this video.
Just found this, funny how Elgato added the majority of the features you wanted with the Stream Deck...
And then they made a giant version of it! That must have been his idea of heaven
If you love your macro keys so much, why don't you just marry one Taran?
How do you know that he hasn't?
Did you post this on floatplane too?
Fictitious Long ago...
he's working on a macros for that
There are too many macros to choose just one
And I thought I was clever putting a Ctrl+Click on my mouse
Middle mouse button click registers at ctrl+click anyway tho no?
@Rerin YL open in new tab
Just bought one yesterday (4 Nov 2018) looks like nearly every software complaint / wish in this video has been addressed..! Nice work..!
I own this, and use it for nearly all my software, from shortcuts in a Photoshop Profile to streaming OBS with my OBS profile... and recently I even created a profile for Ableton. This piece of kit can do SOOOO mych more than you realise at firt glance, it's amazing!
ENTERPLAY using a stream macro keyboard as midi input lol
I think GIFs would be a great option, now that you mention image retention. I doubt the Stream Deck uses OLED technology, but the usage of moving images reduces the chance of image retention, so, hopefully that would be available in a future update.
There is nothing more fun than making something work differently than it was designed to do. Excellent vid!
Great intro, great review, and now I'm a Taran believer!
Can you recommend me a headphones that support GIF?
...PATENT PENDING!
You're all my witnesses.
on my to-do-list.
More Taran Videos!
Thank you for posting this! I've wanted an LCD keypad like this ever since seeing those old Optimus keyboards a decade ago, but since this device is targeted at streamers, none of my keyword searches found it!
Would love to see Taran come back to this, now that Stream Deck SDK is a thing!
Well Taran, you are going to enjoy the new Stream Deck XL ;)
More Taran!!!
MORE TARAN VIDEOS! Glad to see him back!
FINALLY TARAN VIDEOS!
I want more from the Macro King!!! 2019 ultimate Macro setup please
Last time I was this early, Linus didn't drop something
Love Taran's episodes.
Tarzan, you're my favorite reviewer on LTT. Wish we saw more reviews/videos from you!
Waiting for a updated Taran setup.
Me: "THAT'S NOT LINUS!"
also me: "Huh, there's people other than Linus on this channel"
I JUST GOT ONE OF THESE 2 MONTHS AGO AND LOVE IT~! USE IT EVERYDAY I STREAM :D
Taran is a beast! love your videos on editing in premiere!
2:29 I love how the video on the bottom left has a fidget spinner, they just jumped on the trend. XD
so when is taran gonna take over the world?
Lol I love Taran vids.
Please do more!
These made my laugh even more than Linus and BERKEL vids!
Hahaha I love you dude. Freaking love how thorough you get in your videos.
If Taran ever ends up working for someone else I'd love to see the look on his new boss' face when he rolls up at his new job and slaps 7 keyboards on his desk.
Taran: You have so many things, let see uuhh... I think I have a macro for ending the vi-
oh how i love teran reviewing tings
Taran videos are always great
TARAN - you should have a look at 'Unified Remote', I'm sure there's a spare tablet or two lying around the office, it's fairly easy to program layouts by looking at the examples and then easy to make it run auto hotkey scripts. Basically does the same as the stream deck for how you use it in Premiere but for as cheap as the spare tablet lying around or a cheap android tablet. Fairly sure you can also have multiple devices connected to the server too so you could surround yourself with hotkey tablets.
True Andy, I find that with a 10" tablet in a fixed position on my desk muscle memory gets close enough most of the time. Just one of may things to weigh up along with cost, flexibility and ease of use
Tablet's screen doesnt gives real tactile feedback. Thats one downside.
I love Taran so fucking much
awesome video taran! glad you're back :)
More reviews by Taran please. I would like a video on his macro setup and workflow.
6:05 I *knew* that's what they were really doing over there.....
I'm convinced EposVox is Tiran's brother
Yeh I heard that too. But I don't think either of them have met Taran.
There's a guy at my school who looks EXACTLY what Taran would be like in school.
And he talks and acts EXACTLY how Taran does on moving vlogs.
I'm convinced Taran has learned asexual reproduction at a very young age.
tiran lmao pissing brb
xSplayd a
Man, Taran videos are the best
Taran's making pretty good content these days..
You go Taran!!! 😎🤙
Who else other than Taran needs a full size keyboard but they're all macros
Nooter I would once it's set up.
Having 2 keyboards with macros still isn’t enough!?!?
Maxim Coppieters
Not at LTT.
And definitely not for Taran.
Please make more videos with Taran!!
we love you taran ! Keep up the good work :)
0:20 Someone said prerecorded in the twitch chat. They were right all along. (If you watched the April Fools 2020 video)
WE DID IT GUYS. We got to Taran's head
Taran's reviews are the best!
As always great stuff from the editor himself ;)
Not buying the HD 6XXs. It doesn't support gifs.
1:19 HOLY SHIT I GOT THE EXACT SAME DESKTOP THAT REALLY CONFUSED ME
I like Tarans reviews, wanna see em more
Taran is the definition of productivity, LMG’s very lucky to have him!
Dennis and taran should make One video together.
2:51 Taran predicted the "It just works" meme lmao.
I love you Taran!!! More videos of you please!!!
Now that's how I'd be using that but for code editing.
Great video do more please.
"let's see, uhh.. I think i have a macro for ending the vid-" and the video ended
You might be surprised by how many uses the king of macros might have stored for you.
Now this got me intrigued for workflow purposes. I would like it to be at least 20 keys though, and preferably be able to easily "latch" or "hook" more than one of these together to expand the number of available keys while maintaining a single, sturdy unit.
I need more Taran videos
taran is better than linus, more taran please..
👍
His tunnelbear ad was on point 😤👏👍👌
I wouldn't say he's better or worse, but it is refreshing to have someone else host every once in a while
Taran Tech Tips confirmed!
skirmich T cubed
I like TTT (TaranTechTips) more than LTT (LinusTechTips)
I love your videos Taran. Great review.
good vid funni and entertaining I watched the whole vid witch is great for your sponsors
