STREAMER'S COMPANION
HWM Singapore|March 2023
When you think of a stream deck, one of the first brands that comes to mind is Elgato. But that hasn’t stopped upstart peripherals maker Mountain from trying to muscle in on the space — at a more palatable price point.
STREAMER'S COMPANION

The Mountain DisplayPad helps simplify a content creator’s workflow, putting commands such as switching to a different screen or simply muting your microphone right at your fingertips. Similarly, its companion MacroPad is all about shortcuts, allowing you to execute complex macros with just a single push of a button.

The pair are all about streamlining what it means to game and stream. The DisplayPad features 12 programmable buttons arranged in two rows of six. Each key has a customisable display that can be linked to virtually any program, and there is also support for animated GIFs if you want your setup to pop a little bit more.

The setup process is incredibly simple. In the Base Camp software, you can customise each key via a seamless drag-and-drop process. The interface is simple and easy to understand, and you should have no trouble getting it up and running in no time. Of course, there is support for dedicated macros as well.
