Bad Gear - Most Expensive Home Keyboard

video upload by AudioPilz

"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. Almost every day critics of this channel spread fake news that I will one day run out of Gear to review - if I haven’t already.

Today we are going to talk about Arturia Astrolab. This arguably most expensive home keyboard of all time and proprietary plugin host is the living proof that this day will most likely never come: a name suspiciously similar to your favorite personal lubricant, the UI of a smart home thermostat and the most obnoxious paywall of all time - merci beaucoup!!!
