[Razer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/razer-stream-controller-x) recently launches its new streaming deck dubbed the Stream Controller X and it is catered to those who have experience streaming or creating content regularly. It is made with LCD switchblade key buttons with a face plate at the top that can be customized.

The bevel spacing is slightly smaller than the [Elgato](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elgato-stream-deck-studio) model and it allows users the ability to program multiple actions into a single button. To do so, they drag them into a custom action editor and implement their desired controls. Users are also able to program actions that can be triggered simultaneously or consecutively. Various risks can have custom profiles and switch between automatically based on the program through Dynamic Mode.
