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.

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.

Why use this template
Sitting down to record means launching your DAW, killing notifications, and getting your lighting routine ready. Miss one and a stray Slack ping ruins the take. This opens the session, enables Focus, and runs your configured Control Center light action from one press, so you start in the right environment instead of remembering setup steps under the clock.
