Start a Recording Session

Questions, answered

Do I need to know how to code?

No. "Start a Recording Session" 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.

Is it free?

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 unlock advanced features when you need them.

What do I need to use this template?

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 Control Center 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. Make sure obs-cli is installed and configured first.

Can I change the steps?

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.
