As someone who has a small problem with impulse buying, I highly appreciate how you encourage people to really consider what the product would do for them. Most guys don't do that and just go "buy it, it's great". You show that you care about your audience quite a bit when you encourage a more cautious approach to a product you enjoy overall. It makes me happy to see people encourage putting thought into your decisions, especially ones that are pretty expensive.
I would relate to this statement if you changed 'small problem' with 'huge problem'
youtube really messed w my impulse buying and retail therapy
@@Jawd14 I was finna say must be nice only having a *small* problem 😂
Don't buy things, easy. If you still do, give money to me so your choices will have real consequences for once
@@vikingskippen it is that easy, but also not as easy as it sounds. It's the same thing with any other addiction, the answer is literally to just. stop. But making yourself just. stop. Is what's difficult for most, like you're your own worst enemy.

I thought this was a gaming controller and I was really really intrigued as to how it was going to work
God, I'm glad I wasn't the only one
I honestly thought it was one of those fidget cube toys (._. ;)
Yeah I thought it was going to be like a smaller steering wheel for racing games
Me too, I have a Razer Kaiju and when it's collapsed for storage it has a very similar form factor/shape to this thing. I was thinking it was either a squished controller or some sort of camera.
I mean we were kinda right it _is_ a controller of sorts

I’m not even in the market for this product but this is probably the best product review video I’ve ever seen
Dankpods.
Man's got god tier editing even in his product reviews
The weird thing about this hardware is that once you find a USE for it, it's a godsend. I had a tourbox for almost a full year and couldn't find a piece of software that really benefited from it, until I landed on a simple pdf editor that was clunky and awful, but I was forced to use it (mandated by work). But now I can't live without it. It's no Logitech G13 but since those are never coming back (sigh) this is a fun compromise!
3D modeler here: This thing is pretty much useless to me because my left hand is already occupied by my space mouse for Navigation.
at this point you'd need a third hand
or straight up a neural interface
I wish we had 2 arms on each side
Would a Tartarus V2 work? Since that one has a spacebar button, and is kinda like this thing in the video, if with more buttons.
Tho probably no point.
You'd probably need to do something crazy like getting foot pedals and keybind them. xD
We need one of those but for feet like imagine some pedals or some big buttons to step on as shorcuts
3D modeler here. I use it a lot. Don’t listen to this guy
**rubberised coating**
I wonder how resilient it is to the dust. Rubberised coating usually gets sticky after a while.
Bruh I hate rubberized coating so much
@@jackgamesjack_yt_6267 You love it until you hate it
I've got the original wired version and have been using it daily for over a year. The coating is still smooth and a little rubbery. No stickiness yet!
@@krime2001 Pog

The editing is top-notch, it's so clean and full of nice animations.
I'm not an artist, editor or anything alike, nor I'm interested in ever getting this product but this video was straight up excellent. Incredibly thorough and objective. 10/10
I like how I watched 2/3 of the video before learning that it's not designed for left-handed people.
I honestly expected you to roast the giant fidget cube for 20 minutes, but by the end of the video I kinda actually want one. Now that's plot twist if I've ever seen it
Video made me remember Junji Ito's custom macro pad where he attached clay onto some of his keys
A cheap version of one of those would be incredible as a fidget toy, I can sometimes tear the skin off my hands with my OCD when I get stressed and fidget toys are useful for avoiding that
I believe I have seen some fidget cubes that fit in the palm of your hand. I never picked them up because I prefer my little linked rings covered in rubber.
Another well crafted and smoothly edited video. I think some of the text is a bit too small to read and/or blends in with the background too well but otherwise, it’s excellent.
This looks like a good product for me to use. But, I do agree that it looks like it would benefit from being wireless.
Gotta try it out to make sure, though
I love the way you made this review where you included things like "Would it benefit you?" i really really appreciate that
“HAHAHA! [Urick], LET ME SAY [Thank You!] FOR ACCESSING MY [NEO] FORME! NOW I MAY [Shoot for the Sky!] AND BECOME A CONTORLLER FOR ALL [Your Home Devices] IN THE WORLD!!
What do you mean “Wrong NEO”?
I thing this is the best review I have seen in my entire life. So complete and so sincere.
Thank you very much man, it really helped me out to make a decision.
It's a real shame I'm not a creator- I don't have a use for this comfortable and satisfying doodad.
Also, you *are* good at art. I'm always struck by how cute you make the female characters you draw.
the guys are often pretty cute too :)
I thought it was sort of neat and maybe even would encourage me take better advatange of shortcuts in my workflow. But I would rather stop using shortcuts entirely than pay 159 bucks for something like this .
How might you stop using shortcuts? The point of shortcuts is to reduce the amount of time spent digging through submenu after submenu, which wouldn't be nearly as efficient. If you were to never use a keyboard shortcut again, and you also were to never invest in shortcut gear, my assumption is you'd be using the on-screen menus for every feature you use frequently. If you were to be working on a large professional product, say one that you would work on for several months, you'd potentially be losing hours or maybe even days that are now dedicated to nothing but menu navigation.
Is the idea here that you'll simply navigate menus faster, then? You'll still be spending a significant amount of time in menus, much more than you'd need to use shortcuts, and more than if you had some shortcut gear.
@@pokeguy742 he was being facetious
@Deso Lark have you ever shit your pants tho? Don't lie
@Deso Lark exactly
@@pokeguy742 I said I would RAHTER stop using them than pay for a gimmicky piece of tech like this.
My friend has been using their left joycon for when they work in Blender.
That's amazing man!
I actually do the same, and its less expensive
that's a good idea
I do similar but I use half of an xbox one controller
It is always a delight to see you upload. I am very happy that you do! I look forward to your next video.
Based on the thumbnail I thought this was a super over designed fidget toy. Regardless, solid video
If they made it iPad compatible I would totally pick one up, since that's where I do most of my drawing and procreate shortcuts can be a pain to use
But overall, the product looks pretty slick!
I really appreciate this review, both for the information presented on the product, and the ethical and well spoken approach to the scripting. Great work as always Urick.
Great video! As a lefty I find the TourBox to be very comfy. For me the biggest benefit has been that I'm not always moving my drawing hand from tablet to keyboard now.
They recently put out an update in beta currently that lets you create the button combinations that previously didn't exist. While you still cannot do 3 button combos, it's great to now be able to have a bigger repetoire of button shortcuts. The update also added an overlay to see all of your commands, should you ever forget what you bound.
Am I the only one that never got used to using shortcut keys? The only ones I use is undo and eraser on the pen itself, I kinda like the sense of picking stuff since I like to be looking for something, but also stumble in discovering smth better. (If that makes any sense)
Maybe if you're getting started but most professionals have established workflows and know their software well enough that there's no discovery left, just a tool they need to get to.
Keyboard is an AWESOME tool, but configuring and memorizing the shortcuts for each application is just too much of a hassle.
You'd need to be already committed to optimizing your workflow + convinced that it's gonna be worth it.
@@8Kazuja8 My text editor of choice is Neovim, and the amazing thing about it is that it doesn't really have normal shortcuts, it has a mapping _language_. To start, you're in _normal mode_. I can press just "i" (insert) from there to enter _insert mode_, where pressing letters actually puts them in the buffer, like in modeless (or rather, uni-modal) text editors, and when I'm done "" takes me back to normal mode. There's a class of mappings called _motions_; these move your cursor around.
From normal mode, "w" (word) is a motion to the start of the next word, "2w" takes me to the start of the second next word, and "W" is a motion to the start of the next non-whitespace run of characters (e.g. it won't take you to a comma or period). "b" is a motion that takes you to the start of the current or previous word, and "B" works off of non-whitespace, like "W" but in the other direction. "e" & "E" are motions for the end (last character) of words. "^" is the start of a line, "$" is the end of a line. "(" is a sentence forward, and ")" a sentence backward. "{" & "}" are for paragraphs.
There are then commands that work on text objects, and text objects are almost always mapped orthogonally to motions. From normal mode, "dw" deletes from my cursor to the start of the next word, "d2E" deletes to the end of the second next word, including punctuation & anything else that isn't whitespace, and "d{" deletes to the start of the next paragraph. This all gets stuck in a register, which is like a labeled clipboard. Registers can be specified for commands via a prefix, and this works for both yanking (copying) and pasting.
Vim takes a bit to learn, but the magical thing is that you get to learn vocabulary that you can reuse constantly for the rest of your time with the editor. Each thing you discover makes you a bit more efficient, not just in the one command you are currently working with, but with every command following the pattern in the future. Commands take text objects, a new command gets to use all the text objects you know and will know, and a new text object gets to be used with all the commands you know and will know. After a while, you don't think about what your fingers have to do really; you think in terms of how you want the text to transform and it can kinda just happen thanks to your brain recalling all this stuff without much effort. It's bliss, and wonderful for at least programmers because we often spend more time doing things to text than typing it in. Plus, a programmer that develops new stuff can hook in to this rich vocabulary & grammar that's already present.
On the other hand, Emacs does have a shit ton of mappings that work a lot more like shortcuts. Emacs is like a cross-platform, portable operating system designed for rich-text tools though, and that's a leg up on Vim. Evil is a great library that implements Vim's mappings for a lot of Emacs, which helps those cursed with Vim brain.
@@8Kazuja8 if you're gonna use an Emacs config framework with good Evil support, I'd recommend Doom Emacs
SCP Illustrated uses the tourbox to draw his stuff for his videos, and it was really surprising watch him draw with it
Damm I love the style of his videos, the way he uses his art to make his dialogue more "animated" (pun unintended) and attention holding but still be so clean and concise. Imo it's like a PowerPoint and a brochure had a baby but it's already learning cursive. All in all I live for this style of video/editing.
I genuinely appreciate this review, my index finger has been acting up horribly with mouse work so I need alternatives.
I'm glad dials are getting more popular in these kinds of peripherals. Now what I wanna see is something like the Cirque’s GlidePoint circle touchpads, I only know of the TM040040 by name butr a successor to them would work as well, used in a macro peripheral; the TM040040 is the touchpad used in the Steam Controller and most of HTC's VR controllers. The massive benefit of these is that not only are they a touchpad, so 2D input, but they also have a stupidly wide range of functions, combining the 2D input with a singular button allows for positioned clicks (this is how controller dpads worked), and the pad itself can be split into zones radially, in a grid, or as concentric circles. One pad could replace three dials, up to nine buttons comfortably, and still provide breathing room with a set of modifier keys to switch between touch presets and button presets. Pair a couple of these on a single device and you get into a vast number of functions within a small amount of space. Though the specific pad I've mentioned was meant to replace the range of a thumbstick, so it's fairly small, Cirque does provide custom solutions, so an XL sized pad isn't entirely out of the question. I think this could actually be the ultimate companion peripheral for a lot of workflows, it not only has a wide range of inputs, but also a wide range of types of inputs, and it'd be in such a small package that someone could easily use two of these together, and they could easily be made to be ambidextrous. Ergonomic? Potentially. Tactile? Not so much but we all also learned to use drawing tablets and touchpads/touchscreens, so the learning curve should be similar. A UI element to show where the pad(s) is(are) being touched should also be fairly simple to implement, so that should help with the lack of tactile features. Oh, and another benefit of these, the keyboard implementation that Steam gave their controller, it might not be amazing for typing but it'd be super useful for shortcuts that you might not have bound to a macro; this could probably even be modified to be a macro keyboard itself, as like a master list of key combination macros.
I might look into getting some of these pads, as I don't want to cannibalize my controllers, to DIY a prototype for this concept. I'm surprised a company hasn't already experimented with this, I don't think the touchpads are all that expensive considering they've gone into controllers that were really affordable for what they are. I really do think advanced touchpads like this will be the way forward for small peripherals with a ton of input.
I've been eyeing the Tourbox for a while now as a full-time digital artist. The express keys on my Cintiq have worked for me up until I recently switched to using Clip Studio Paint. The program is so optimized for workflow that I finally felt restrained by the amount of shortcut keys available to me.
Thanks a ton for your critical review!! Seems like itll fit my exact needs, and I appreciate your honest opinions. Glad I found this video so I can use your link to buy it
Went here for a review, ended up getting financial advice. That's not what a reviewer is but is more than needed. Thanks saladbar, I would gladly use your code!
This is... hands down, the best looking video review ever
Christmas this early? You spoil us.
so...it's basically a keyboard *IF* it was a controller.
Good video, I expected this to be a fidge cube until you started talking about the shortcuts
Reminds me of that website full of custom MAME cabinets with cursed controller layouts. I'm amazed they couldn't fit a trackball in there as well
I can't wait until someone get the idea to beat donkey kong country using this.
Before I got the Razer Nostomo (and later the Tartarus which I currently use) I actually used an old PC Gaming Flightstick with pen old caps for 2 of the missing buttons.
Hat Switch for 4 Brush, Eraser, Fill, and Wand (my 4 most used tools)
Trigger and Main Thumb Button for Space and Shift
Side Buttons for Undo and Save
Moving the stick for canvas zoom and rotation
Twisting the stick left/right for brush size
Could never get the Throttle do something
If you get something like XPAdder, then you could make nearly any gamepad work as a shortcut remote of sorts.
Hope you make more videos like this, they’re good and are helpful in more ways than just talking about the product, I needed to hear that part about just trying to improve rather than thinking I should just wait till I get (blank), I got a phone and a finger so why not use em am I right
I have an unfortunate traditionalist approach when it comes to work, so adjusting to new hardware isn't something that's very attractive to me; especially when my current setup is optimal to me. I hardly touch my keyboard and I only use 3 of the 6 on my tablet: Undo, Redo, and Save.
not everyone uses a lot of settings in the software they use, or are used to their workflow, and that's totally okay too. I think stiff like this is nice when they do work but as long as you enjoy your setup i wouldn't feel too pressured to buy something.
I couldn’t help but notice how you were watching Technology Connections at 3:03! Fantastic channel. (I think that’s the video about brown too).
thanks for just caring and being awesome you are a good person with honest good opinions thanks usually RUclipsrs don’t talk about money In such an honest and good way
They have a grid keypad on Amazon that’s like a 4x6 inch rectangle and it’s cheap and great you can add all different colored key caps to identify the hotkeys in a way that works for you and it’s looks pretty sick
I like the idea. Especially for one handed players. I think it wouldn't hurt to aim this market with similar and more thought out products.
Can't wait for this guy to have 10 000 000 subs, it's gonna happen
This is the greatest review I've ever seen. Well done all around.
dankpods and the aging wheels/technology connections crossover in the same video? a man of culture i see
Love an excellently edited Ted talk. Thanks for making a good ad.
Great review, and something I may end up getting!
I am going to throw another alternative out there though as it may suit some folks better.
My personal setup pairs the tablet shortcuts with voice commands using VoiceAttack. As this isn't limited in how many commands it can have available, and each command can run a sequence of keys, I can call up any of my many ZBrush brushes just by saying the name and simply saying "Clip Curve" is a lot faster than finding the brush from the brush selection screen. This also means I can free up a lot more working space by removing all a lot of the shortcuts and menus from the screen- there's no need for them, and for a tool like ZBrush where the UI is overly complex and confusing that's a major plus.
Im a graphic designer who is left handed I per-ordered the elite version so it will be interesting to see how I will adapt to this.
I just bought this, and am definitely NOT interested in replacing my keyboard. Throughout the day, I’m jumping between video editing, motion graphics, other graphics programs (often typing and editing text) as well as writing emails, chatting in Slack and on Basecamp with colleagues, constantly. That keyboard is staying put, but I’m hoping TourBox can speed up my post-production process overall!
Very well presented and solid review, probably not something I'll be buying anytime soon, but certainly showed the potential of it and will keep it in mind for the future :)
Thank you for the genuine feedback on this product, I've been thinking about how this item can make me a better artist and as long as I buy it I will draw more often [but it would probably be I get it and not use it or use less frequent than I imagined. JUST BECAUSE I SEE LOTS OF PROFESSIONALS USING IT NOW]. But after watching your video I feel like I got smacked with a book by someone which makes my brain a lot clearer now hahaha [metaphoracally]. I will think again whether I will use it or not!
I would have thought this was ideal for video editing only really. The knobs are ideal for scrubbing through their timeline, and the buttons for marking in and out points, cutting and inserting clips etc. I wish I could try one first. Great review for all bit video editors. Pity you didn’t show it in use.
3:02 Average Technology Connections enjoyer
I appreciate the honest review. Been eyeing one of these for awhile. Also, unrelated, but your accent reminds me a lot of comedian Anthony Jeselnik. So, I was just waiting for an inappropriate joke.
wow, this is all pleasing if I wasn't left handed. at least this video is a 159 dollar save.
That was a neat look into the behind the scenes!
Although something still keeps me up at night....
..... Terry Hintz, the best best friend when?
Looks nice if you find a use for it. Personally, I just use an MMO mouse that has a bunch of buttons on the side for extra hotkeys. Gives twelve more buttons without needing to move your hand off the mouse, but no wheels or knobs like you get with this.
good video. parappa the rapper music much appreciated
That was a wonderful review, thank you.
Also what’s your favorite genre in gaming mine is platformers
What is this....Minecraft?
RPGs
FPS
While I personally don't prefer a genre over the other. (Minus rhythm games) I just like games with good story and lore.
Watch the video first
Literally the best advertisement I have ever seen.
That rubberized coating could very well turn to sticky goo here in a few years. See: Gizmondo.
Been using it daily for over a year. It's still all good.
I’d really like to see a flat, thin version of the StreamDeck - the led keys reduce the learning curve with remembering groupsets between apps.
I thought it was going to be another fidget cube product. Which... I guess it is, at least an expensive one at that.
I don't know what I expected less in a usb. video: Live-action hand cam footage, or a *sponsor*
(actually, what am I saying? I definitely would not have guessed sponsorship)
I’d love something like this with ipad support. Spending less time dipping in & out of menus using the touchscreen would be pretty great.
I got one of these to partner with my Cintiq Pro 24 and replace the Wacom Expresskey remote, which has been a huge pain in the ass from day 1.
The EK remote is either sporadically forgetting my settings, randomly desyncing with my computer, or constantly interrupting me with incessant low battery warnings (despite my keeping it plugged in).
It also only having 1 dial is annoying because I means I have to choose between using the dial for brush size, zooming in and out, or rotating, and constantly switching back-and-forth between those just to get maximum use out the dial means a lot of extra button pressing that shouldn't have been a factor in the first place.
The TourBox solved all those issues and for me has been a joy to work with, my only nitpick would be that I wish the base was metal so I could adhere it magnetically to the bezel of my Cintiq, but it's not that big of a deal, as I can suspend it over the top of the display with the cord and the rubber feet keep it in place most of the time.
I thought it was one of those fighting game controllers that emulate arcade sticks at first.
I saw that little technology connections cameo
love the parrapa 2 menu songs
The majority of my work is typing so I don't know why I watched this but I am watching it all the way through
When the background song is already in your playlist
This editing is super clean
I don’t even draw and I still watched the entire video. This man’s voice is elevating.
What a legend - didn't make an update comment or google doc, despite TourBox addressing most of his suggestions...
Finally, someone that actually knows how to review this crap.
Thank you, 10:21 information is gold.
PS: Clip Studio(EX) is actually an Animation software. Do you know the Anime called "Ishuzoku Reviewers"? Was entirely made on clip studio.
3d artist here, you can’t press more than 2 buttons and have them read, for example, if I need to press ctrl i have a button, and alt in another, but if i press them both it wont register, i have to configure it separately, but theres no config for 3 at the same time, so I cant press ctrl alt shift, which is super needed for zbrush
Came for the oddly shaped device, stayed for the sound test ASMR
on screen shortcuts for me have always been go-to for quick short cuts. I'm surprised your on-screen shortcuts stuck around, since my little menu thing shows up when I click the button bound to "open menu" and disappear when I press the button again. maybe that's just my model? (I use a Wacom Intuos and CSP)
I like that there was a Video from Technologie Connections in there
Have you tried using a keypad, like the Razer Tartarus or Orbweaver for these types of tasks? How would you compare them to this device?
I’m curious I’m still in the overview part but can the controller be picked up by games? This would work nicely for a extra couple of switches for dcs and if it’s less than 800$ it’s a better deal than the switchboxes made for it
6:51 Yay, ASMR
A brick to chuck at intruders?
Say no more! I’m sold!
20:25
Came for the review. Stayed for the lessons.
Love the Parappa Music man
Man I'm not even anywhere close in the market for this but your videos are so satisfying to watch, I love your editing and your reviews always seem to have a lot of thought put into them. Keep up the good work.
Your hands got me bricked up buddy
Dang I was about to get it for like, $80 at max. But... whoooohhhhhhh boooyyyy that's heckin expensive!
I use one hand keyboard that usually meant for gaming bc it's very cheap and I can do a ton more shortcuts with Ctrl, Alt, Shift combinations.
I have a clip studio tab mate but it's never clicked for me.
But if I get this TourBox for free, I think I could enjoy using it.
Do they have a version intended to be used with your right hand? I'm left handed and draw with my left hand as such.
Jesus, dude dose a sponsorship better then the entire super bowl xD
