Foot pedals · Gaming and OSRS
Three pedals under the desk handle push-to-talk, mute, and one or two game keys. The choice is whether you want software running or keys stored on the pedal.
Choose the Elgato Stream Deck Pedal for OSRS skilling and raid push-to-talk. Its spring sets and app profiles suit the combined setup; use one Hotkey action per OSRS press. PCsensor Triple USB Foot Pedal is the budget alternative for saved fixed keys. Keep OSRS to one input per physical press.
Both give you three pedals over USB. The Elgato runs from the Stream Deck app; the PCsensor stores its keys on the pedal.

One press should send one ordinary key. Set a pedal to an interface key you picked in OSRS's Keybinding settings (inventory or prayer, for example), or to Space to continue dialogue. Keep clicking on the mouse.
On PCsensor, choose a plain key output, turn off repeat, and avoid text or macro output. On Elgato, use one Hotkey action instead of a Multi Action. This keeps one physical press to one input.
Jagex's rules prohibit hardware that does things you should do yourself. Check Jagex's current rules before using a pedal. See the OSRS foot pedal setup guide for a one-key setup.
Use one pedal for push-to-talk, another for mute, and a third for a clip or scene. PCsensor sends a configured key that Discord reads directly; Elgato can send the same hotkey or use its Discord plugin while the app runs. Pick a key the game does not already use.
Suggested layouts, not required.
The Stream Deck app needs Windows 11 or later or macOS 13 or later. Keep it running while you use the pedal. Smart Profiles switch by active app, and Multi Actions can run several actions; use one Hotkey action for an OSRS keybind.
For PCsensor, use ElfKey on Windows or macOS to save a key to the pedal. PCsensor says the saved function works without ElfKey running. For OSRS, choose a plain key and avoid text, macro, or mouse-button output.
Elgato says the Stream Deck app must be running for keys to work, and profiles are stored on the computer. PCsensor saves the binding to the pedal, then acts as a USB keyboard.
Elgato includes swappable soft, medium, and hard spring sets plus two stoppers. PCsensor lists photoelectric and mechanical versions of its triple pedal, so check the selected configuration.
One plain key per pedal, stored on the pedal.
Plugins and per-app profiles while the app runs.
Bindings stay on the pedal, so another computer needs no software.
Four spring sets and two stoppers.
Neither pedal makes a macro safe in OSRS. The rules judge what the input does, not the brand. Combat and clicking stay on the mouse. Test a new binding somewhere harmless before you rely on it.
PCsensor does not publish the triple pedal's weight or floor-grip details, so its documentation does not establish whether it will move on your floor. Elgato lists a weight of about 930 g and describes anti-skid feet on the Stream Deck Pedal.
Yes. Elgato includes two stoppers that lock the center pedal, so you can use it as a footrest. While locked, it cannot send an input; the left and right pedals remain available. The interchangeable spring sets change pedal resistance, but they do not lock a pedal.
No. The pedal connects to a computer over USB and is configured with Elgato's Stream Deck software; it does not require another Stream Deck hardware unit. Elgato lists Windows 11 or newer and macOS 13 or newer. Profiles and integrations depend on the software running.
