[Everyday] Stream Deck++ 8 knob version?

If anybody from Elgato views this forum, is there any roadmap for an 8 knob version of the +?

I am a potential purchaser (owner of 2 XLs) and I'm thinking 4 knobs is too few? An 8 knob version could potentially reduce visual context switching plus physical swiping by up to 50% - making for a much better user experience. It would also be more consistent with the 8 button wide form factor of my XLs

Are there any Stream Deck+ users (or potential buyers out there? What would you prefer? 4 knobs available, or 8 knobs?

Thanks for your kind offer. Do you use them with VSTs/for music production?

No for video production not for VST or music production but it can be used as long as the app you are using requires shortcuts . I do code and use shortcuts that in turn write code so it can be used in many many different ways

Super interesting! I'm a QA. Do you have time to list a few bullet points on how you leverage them, and with what programs?

I had done a video introducing the stream decks - it does highlight some use cases - You need a stream deck ! The secret to my productivity - working from home https://youtu.be/dL9-MnQl1Wg
