      For businesses/people who don’t want to have to pay for creative talent? – good
      For people who don’t have the dedication to learn how to play an instrument – good.
      For artists who don’t want to take the time to master their craft – good.

      Re: Help Name the LinkedMusicians Bear

      How about:
      “Naked Ladies”

      It would also be tribute to an often underappreciated band.
      Hey! Have you seen the Bear ‘insert name’ on LinkedMusicians?

      Not really serious but, it at least, made me smile.

      I love my mk I Elgato Stream Deck. And I can highly recommend it.

      I can’t remember where I bought it, but it was more expensive than this price.

      I mainly use mine to control macros in Studio One 7 Pro, and it’s a great time-saver.

      All the best.

      Did they ever have a sale?

      I don’t recall ever seeing a sale on this.
      I bought it after comparing the alternatives on a particular guitar shredding video. YMMV but with the clip I tried it had the most ‘clarity’ on the individual notes at slower speeds + the video stays connected.

      I don’t understand.

      Why would I buy a discontinued product?

      Wrong question.
      The correct question is: Do I have a use for this plugin or bundle now or in the near future?
      If not – save your money. Buying plugins is a poor investment strategy.

      Does not support external sidechaining – which is a real shame, for me that makes this plugin 90% less useful.
