StreamDock M18: Born for Control, Designed for Immersive Desktops
PANGTE
Introduction
At VSDinside, we believe a desktop accessory should be more than a tool—it should be an extension of your creativity, efficiency, and personality.
This belief inspired the creation of the StreamDock M18: a screen-based desktop control console, purpose-built for immersive workflows and aesthetic harmony.
A Single-Purpose Console. Executed to Perfection.
Unlike the multi-mode StreamDock N1, which serves as a number pad, calculator, and control panel, the M18 focuses solely on one thing— being an exceptionally designed desktop control console.
Its strength lies in this purity: no distractions, no switching, just seamless control and stunning feedback.
