In reply to Tony. What is a Spacemouse?

The Spacemouse is still king.

In reply to Pete. Never mind about the plugin problem, I managed to make it work - but still would be interested to hear your thoughts on comparing the button display resolutions. Thank you!

Thank you for a thorough review that doesn’t feel like a paid advertisement by a YouTube content creator! I’m a Loupedeck Live user and after the 6.0 update, I do like the fresher button look and Logitech font, but some button texts are so tiny that you can’t really read them. I imagine this is due to them being optimized for higher resolution MX Creative Console buttons. Can you tell something about how the MX button resolution compares to Loupedeck? Also, currently I can’t make my Live to connect to Premiere Pro and I wonder if this is due to broken plugin after the update. Loupedeck software says Logi plugin is not connected to Premiere Pro even if I activate the Logi plugin… did you encounter any problems like this with your CT+ after the update? Loupedeck has released a statement saying that they take customer complaints seriously and are working on a fix, and that they’re offering existing customers 40% discount on all MX products as an apology. Might as well accept that…

Thank you for your detailed response! I appreciate your insights about the MX Creative Console.

Just to share, PowerToys is a set of utilities for Windows that enhances productivity. It offers features like custom shortcuts, window management, and more, which could potentially complement the Logitech console for more complex tasks.

Thanks again for your help!

In reply to Hus. I don't know what PowerToys is but you can map the keypad to anything that has a keyboard shortcut. Deep application support has to be supported by either Logitech or the application vendor I would think.

Hi,

I enjoyed your review of the Logitech MX Creative Console! I read it quickly and am curious if the keypad can be used with applications outside of the Adobe Creative Cloud suite. Specifically, can it be configured for general tasks like copying and pasting or opening certain applications? And is it possible to program these commands using Logi Options+ only, or can PowerToys be utilized as well? Additionally, can the MX Creative Console and PowerToys be combined for more complex tasks?

Your answer is crucial for me. Thanks in advance!

In reply to Sam Z. This line is copy/pasted right from Logitech’s website: “Claim the offer in your cart before checkout, then choose the package that’s right for you. This subscription credit can be applied to either a new or existing Adobe account.” And I agree, rarely are these promos for current users but in this case it seems so.

You keep mentioning that 3 free months of CC is great for existing users. However, in my experience, these promotions are really for new users. What’s the process for an existing user? Unsubscribe and sign back up?
