    Unbeatable for the price. No subscription. Very professional toolset and features. Performance on the Mac since version 13 is abysmal, stick with version 12 until they properly implement GPU acceleration and support for eGPUs on the Mac (which is on the roadmap). The IK is way better than Harmony.
