No one's buying this, but I thought it was interesting enough to post. I don't even understand half the stuff they're using it for. Looks like fancy macro keys.

Nice idea, if I was still editing I could probably find a use for it, but not at $99.

It is not really great for editing Lurch. Probably easier to just use the normal keyboard.

I am familiar with that box. It is really meant for people streaming live or creating content for Youtube etc.... Allows you to change camera views and launch things easily.

Yes Paladin, I know. I just meant I could adapt it to editing if I had one laying around, but it wouldn't be enough of an advantage to buy for $99. Use it as a switching board. No real need for it along those lines though, since the computer already does it all and one-button switching isn't a $99 convenience.

I see where it would help with streaming, but I don't do that.

This is what you want for editing Lurch. *IF* you were in the market for such a thing of course. i i
I use mine all the time for video editing and music mixing/mastering. A shuttle control is a MUST HAVE!

I also use one of these.

Yeah, I've used shuttles and jog dials before, but got really used to the JKL combination, and only used shuttles in actual studios.

I sent a link to a streamer I play LiF with, and he said he already had one and LOVED it.
