If you’ve ever wanted to level up your live streaming setup without spending hundreds on commercial gear, this project is for you. Using an Arduino Pro Micro, multiplexers, sliders, LEDs, and a TFT display, this DIY controller gives you full tactile control over OBS Studio.

You can use it to switch between multiple camera angles, adjust microphone and desktop audio, mute sound sources, trigger sound effects, and even see your active scene and recording status on the built-in screen - just like a professional Stream Deck, but completely customizable.

🟡 Trigger sound effects with dedicated buttons
🖥️ TFT display shows scene number & stream/recording status
