What you’ll need
Stream Deck plugins
These steps drive Elgato Stream Deck plugins. Install any you don’t already have before you import, so the buttons have something to control.
- Wave Link
Runs on your computer
One or more steps run on the Stream Deck host through the connected Conductor Deck plugin. Install and link the plugin before importing, confirm each local action, and keep Stream Deck Desktop online when the workflow runs.
- Connected Conductor Deck plugin
Why use this template
Keep your configured Wave Link microphone mute on a dedicated key while recording. Install Wave Link and its official Stream Deck plugin, add the Input action to MCP Actions in Stream Deck Desktop, set Action to Mute, choose your microphone input, set Output to All, then test it; each press toggles its current state.
Questions, answered
- No. "Cough / Off-Air Panic Mute" runs on Conductor Deck's visual canvas. Import it, then fill in each step's fields (a channel, a scene name, a message) right in the builder. No scripts to write.
- Yes. Conductor Deck has a free tier you can import and run templates on, with no credit card required. Paid plans raise the monthly run limits and add advanced features when you need them.
- A Conductor Deck account, a Stream Deck (or the in-app virtual deck), and the connected Conductor Deck plugin listed below. You also need the Wave Link Stream Deck plugin installed before you import, since the matching steps drive it. Install and link the Conductor Deck plugin before importing, then keep Stream Deck Desktop and the plugin online when this workflow runs. Confirm each local action before import.
- Absolutely. The template is a starting point. Add, remove, reorder, or reconfigure any step on the canvas after importing, then sync it to any Stream Deck button.
