Outside of gaming, how do you guys use your Steam Deck?

I love my deck because

  • it can play Steam games fairly well
  • it can play emulated game really well
  • but most importantly it's a linux computer, I can browse the web, watch a movie, even be productive on it, and I sometimes don't even need to plug in a mouse and keyboard or an external screen !

But I was wondering what kind of uses other people have with it, as a non gaming machine?

I used it a while ago to record audio with a X32 mixing console in our rehearsal room.

What did you use to input a signal?

...mics into the X32, via USB into the deck? Or what did you mean with "input"?

That's what I meant. I always forget that the USB port can be used for lots of things.

I use a focusrite and a MXL V67G microphone to record audiobooks
