a fine addition to the youtuber apology starter kit

I'd been holding out on getting a teleprompter for a long time because I just couldn't see enough utility for a typical one. This is such a well thought-out and implemented design from Elgato. Congrats and huge thanks to Steggy for championing this design and getting it made even despite doubts. I could see this being as key as a Stream Deck for content creators.

I would love to see an “XL” version where the screen size is nearly doubled and have the functionality to rotate the prompter and display screen from landscape to portrait.

[Simon_Laserna]

Love that you made it super smooth for people in your eco system, while still making it really good for everyone else as well! Excellent design choices.

Not buying a teleprompter yet, but when I get there this is the one for me!

1:52 - So a larger Elgato Prompter to be the next thing sounds like the right thing ??? yes !

[Fernandor_]

Once again Elgato takes something and makes it really convenient and easy to use

[AngelArsFoundation]

New feature request - The teleprompter speed follows you along as you're speaking the text. This would make everything you say appear more natural because you could say some parts more emotional (faster) - or other parts more integral (slower) instead of a set rate of screen text speed.

Ordered mine. This was such a great and complete tutorial. More kudos to Elgato.

[elektrokatzer]

Very well done overview covering all aspects. Perfect!

[KismetBP]

Wow! So well thought out. I am so putting this on my list to add to my Streaming studio! ❤🤘 Great Overview!

[zurvey]

I preordered one. There is a lot in innovation in this device.

[VanishingTacos]

Very cool to see a company promoting 3d printing parts for their products!

[EwingHDTV]

i want this so bad i cant wait to buy it!

[BlueRobotMiner]

You guys always continue to keep surprising me

[codythep]

Very cool and innovative product that inegrates well with an ecosystem.
Well done Elgato!! Makes me hopeful for the future

[dbeach]

Ordered mine. Looks perfect for my use.

[aryella]

this is genius. and online interviews and zoom calls are a lot more personal, since you can actually make eye contact with the person.

[Swerve]

Will be getting this for sure for both work and play

[makedaily]

Your content deeply resonates with viewers! - "Self-belief is the cornerstone of your strength.."

[BeastSports]

This is amazing! The speed control with stream decks is a great idea! One idea I would like to see for those that don't have Stream Deck+ is the ability to play and pause when the teleprompter script is moving. That way I don't have to hit one key too many times.

Still an amazing product!! Will be on the Christmas list.
