I am considering the Loupedeck Live and or the Tourbox for use with Lightroom and Photoshop.

Loupedeck Live
Tourbox

Any feedback and opinions from folks who have and use either would be greatly appreciated
I have looked at online reviews and searched forums etc.
Several of the online reviewers were sent the Loupedeck product from the company and asked to review it, I would prefer to hear from actual users.
They would be used in conjunction with a Wacom Intous Pro tablet.

Thank you for any help and advice!

I've played with the Loupedeck at a trade show and I was quite impressed. I haven't used the Tourbox, in fact it's the first time I've heard of it. Out of the two, Loupedeck has a few more years and a lot more users behind it.

The downside with all of these gadgets is they're dependent on LR's SDK, so you have to wait for them to be updated before they can be used with various LR updates. That's why I've always stuck with a Contour Shuttle as it uses the built in shortcuts.

I use Contour ShuttlePo V2. It is not so expensive.

I do too, but would mention on Mac (Monterey) connection is lost to it and you need to plug back in periodically (USB) to resume. It's a known issue with Contour.

And apologies, OP, I do appreciate you're Windows-based, so not (to my knowledge) affected by this.
