    I hardly ever sub anyone from watching just one video of theirs. I usually watch a bunch of a content creators videos (if the vids are good enough to keep me moving on with them) to prove to me that channel is worth my sub, as there is just sooooo much info out there and it can get overwhelming if I've subbed too many people. This is so great in both content and humor, though, that I had to sub this man just from seeing this video alone.

I am using Cubase Pro on Mac (new to this). and love DAMAGE. but i cant find any info about this. The technical page of Heviocity just mentioned the MAC versions can run, and no M1. Is that it? And any other EPIC PERCS recommendation as a STAND ALONE VST for M1 chips? Thank you! in advance for your time!!!

Kontakt player so samples can be loaded into a loaded into a piece hardware (drum module, etc etc) for live playing vs composing in a daw? Thanks for any insights.
