Express VC Stream Deck Profile for Zoom
A simple yet powerful custom-designed profile for the Stream Deck console and the Stream Deck Mobile app that makes Zoom easy and fun to use.
Sold By: Notation Central
A simple yet powerful Stream Deck profile that triggers the most common Zoom functions.
Mute, unmute, start and stop video, screen share, recording, chat and more. Toggle full screen and Speaker View or Gallery view, right from your Stream Deck console, or your iPhone or Android phone running the the Stream Deck Mobile app.
Download, double-click, and start Zooming in seconds with Express VC.
The Stream Deck console and Stream Deck Mobile are not included with your purchase of the Express VC Stream Deck Profile for Zoom.
Pro tip!
If you want to control Zoom even when it’s not in focus (in the foreground), head over to the Zoom Preferences (or Settings) and open the Keyboard Shortcuts tab. Check the boxes for Enable Global Shortcut — this way you can be working in another app but still control Zoom using Stream Deck.
Just take note of any Zoom global shortcuts that might have the effect of disabling one in another app. If this happens — for instance, if you are using an app which uses the same Command-Shift-H Mac shortcut (Alt+H on Windows) for something as Zoom does for Chat — you can always edit the shortcut in Zoom.
Bear in mind you’ll need to make the same edit in the Express VC Stream Deck profile as well.
Be aware: Show meeting controls so that the icons update on the Stream Deck
Zoom may automatically hide the meeting controls by default, which may prevent the Stream Deck from accurately knowing the state of some settings, like whether the call is muted or unmuted for instance. So that the Express VC Stream Deck profile dynamically displays the correct icon to match what is shown on the screen, head over to the Zoom Preferences (or Settings), and, in General, check Always show meeting controls.

Can I use Express VC on more than one computer?
Yes! A purchase entitles one person (you) to use it on one computer at a time, on as many computers that you personally use. Unless you have extra limbs, that should suffice nicely.
Can I use Express VC on both the Stream Deck console and the Mobile app?
Yes! Your purchase entitles you to use Express VC on both devices. You must purchase the Stream Deck console and subscribe to the Stream Deck Mobile app separately.
Can my buddy who shares my computer use Express VC?
No! Well, there’s no way to technically prevent it. But please ask your buddy to purchase his own copy.
My buddy wants to use my copy of Express VC. Can I send it to him?
No! He should purchase his own copy. Let’s all be buddies!
Can I change the default Express VC profile — move icons around, add my own shortcuts, actions, etc.?
Yes! That’s the beauty of it — it’s totally customizable for your own use. You can always re-import the default Express VC profile again.
So, once I do that, can I send that profile to my buddy?
No! Please don’t share any profile derived from the Express VC profile, unless your buddy has already purchased Express VC, too — then it’s OK.
FAQs
What do I need to use Express VC?
You need the 15-key Stream Deck console OR the Stream Deck Mobile app on iOS or Android from Elgato (purchased separately), and the Zoom desktop app on Mac or Windows. The Stream Deck console and Stream Deck Mobile are not included with your purchase of Notation Express.
Does Express VC work with Mac and Windows? What is the minimum operating system required?
Yes. Be sure to purchase the correct version for your operating system. Mac requires macOS 10.13 or later, Windows requires Windows 10 64-bit or later.
Are the Mac and Windows versions different?
Each version has the same functionality. However, due to the way Zoom is configured, the layout of the icons is slightly different. On Mac, Speaker View and Gallery View share a single shortcut, whereas on Windows, they are separate shortcuts.
Are there different versions of Express VC for the Stream Deck console and the Stream Deck Mobile app for iOS?
No. The same Express VC profile that will work on the Stream Deck console will work on the Stream Deck Mobile app for iOS.
What languages does Express VC work with?
Express VC has only been tested on English language setups. If you work on a computer with a different language, you may be able to modify the shortcuts in the profile on your own if they don’t work in your localization, but any modifications will not be officially supported.
