				Elgato Stream Deck XL
								
					Stream decks were created for streaming, but can be used for anything. Combining these with Keyboard Maestro macros can make some incredibly complex and redudant tasks as simple as pushing a button. (click image below for purchase link)


				
			
					
						
				
				Elgato Stream Deck
								
					This is the smaller stream deck (only 15 buttons). The build quality on the XL is much better (the stand on this one is a little clumsy) but the macros and shortcuts you can create are a HUGE timesaver (click image below for purchase link).


				
			
					
						
				
				Beyerdynamic DT1990 Pro Headphones
								
					I love headphones (I think I have 4 sets in my office right now) but these are my favorite for editing. I can wear them all day without ear fatigue, and they are great for mixing. (click image below for purchase link)


				
			
					
						
				
				
								
									
			
					
						
				
				Logitech Vertical
								
					As an old guy like me, wrist fatigue and Carpel Tunnel is a real problem.  This is the only mouse I've found that is both comfortable and has multiple assignable keys. You can also set it up to work on multiple systems at once (great if you have a laptop next to your edit bay) (click image below for purchase link)


				
			
					
						
				
				Logitech Webcam
								
					I got sick of having to adjust my laptop so that the webcam didn't have a shitty angle- buying this cheap 1080p webcam was a lifesaver, plus the security fold down is nice) (click image below for purchase link)


				
			
					
						
				
				Benq 4K monitors
								
					I love these monitors. Lot's of space, blue light reduction, and a great stand.  Highly recommend.


				
			
					
						
				
				Logitech Keyboard
								
					I love this keyboard, it's backlit, feels nice to type on, and is bluetooth (click image below for purchase link)


				
			
					
						
				
				Lacie SSD Harddrives
								
					I've used Rugged Lacie drives for years and (knock on wood) I've never had one die on me. Even editing on site in the desert with dust and rain, these things can take a drop and still work super fast. (click image below for purchase link)


				
			
					
						
				
				Logitech MX Master 3
								
					This is my "side setup PC" that I use when needed, but I love this mouse too. (click image below for purchase link)

				
			
					
						
				
				Tangent Ripple
								
					If you do any color correcting, you know that adjusting things with a mouse can be tedius and not very efficient.  This cheap color control panel allows you to speed through quick color corrections with lots of customization with the supplied software.

				Laptop Stand
								
					Get rid of the books, or shoe box, or harddrives holding up your laptop.  This stand is solid, and looks great too. (click image below for purchase link)
