Elgato releases Studio 2.0 software to consolidate creator tools

Elgato has launched Elgato Studio 2.0, a new software suite designed to consolidate various creator tools into a single application. The update replaces both Camera Hub and the 4K Capture Utility, which will no longer receive further updates.

The software integrates camera control, recording, and teleprompter functionality. A significant new feature is the Virtual Prompter, which allows users to turn their laptop or monitor into a teleprompter without requiring dedicated Elgato hardware. While the docked mode of the Virtual Prompter is free, a floating mode is available via a paid subscription or a one-time purchase.

Additional technical improvements include Voice Sync 2.0, which now supports the German language and no longer requires an NVIDIA graphics card. The software also features a multi-chat function that aggregates feeds from Twitch, YouTube, and Kick into a single view. Users can now format scripts using Markdown and import text from cloud services like Google Drive.
