Logitech acquires custom consoles creator Loupedeck

Logitech has purchased Loupedeck, maker of the popular editing consoles used by streamers and creative professionals. The acquisition is the latest effort from Logitech to enter the streaming market, which started with the acquisition of Mevo, a livestreaming camera hardware and software business, in 2021.

The partnership between Logitech and Loupedeck is intended to provide “a more seamless experience for creators,” potentially providing Loupedeck hardware with more specialised presets out of the box and better integration with Streamlabs, Logitech's streaming software. Logitech claims it will now embrace Loupedeck's growing developer community and capitalise on the two companies' expertise in integrating hardware and software. Loupedeck has promised its current customers and partners that it will continue to assist them and do business as normal for the foreseeable future.

Loupedeck was once a Lightroom editor before the Indiegogo-funded project started focusing on making creative professional consoles. Currently, Loupedeck offers Loupedeck Live and Loupedeck Live S for streaming professionals, as well as Loupedeck+ and Loudeck CT for beginner and professional video and photo editing.

Loupdeck is the latest in Logitech's streak of acquisitions, which include Blue Microphones, Streamlabs, and Astro.

KitGuru says: Although there's no mention of how the Loupedeck brand will integrate with the Logitech lineup, after seeing Yeti and Astro being merged into Logitech G, it's fair to expect the same for the newly acquired company.
