Hotkeys work everywhere
Konduit's hotkeys are system-wide: they work while OBS, a game or any other app is in front. Set them on the Hotkeys page in Konduit's sidebar.
The defaults
- Next alert: Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+N
- Skip alert: Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+D
- Stop TTS: Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+S
- Mute sub sound: Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+M
These start with no keys until you record some: Replay last alert, Fire next sub alert, and the OBS actions: start streaming, end stream, mute mic, mute desktop audio, record and BRB. Once OBS is linked, Your OBS Scenes adds one hotkey per scene, named after the scene.
OBS start streaming goes live with a single press, unlike the rail's two-press Live button. Pick a combo you won't hit by accident.
Change a hotkey
- On the Hotkeys page, choose Record new combo next to the action.
- Press the keys you want.
- To undo, choose Reset to default, or Clear shortcut for one that started empty.
Pick combos that OBS, your games and your operating system don't already use. Konduit catches duplicates between its own hotkeys, but it can't see other apps' shortcuts. If your operating system refuses a combo, the page names it: record a different one, or choose Retry registration. On a Mac, the page may also point you to System Settings → Privacy & Security → Accessibility to allow Konduit.
Stream Deck and other controllers
No plugin needed. In your Stream Deck software, make a button that sends the keystroke you set in Konduit. The same works for Loupedeck, MIDI controllers, the Stream Deck mobile app and anything else that can send keystrokes.
Practice before you rely on them
Press Demo on the Live Dashboard to fill the queue with sample alerts, then try your hotkeys on them. Clear Demo removes them when you're done.
Two hotkeys are fixed: Cmd/Ctrl+B shows or hides the sidebar, and Cmd/Ctrl+/ shows a cheat sheet of every hotkey.
