I was using AAO and eventually turned to SPAD as I found the UI to be much easier to follow. It also gets more powerful as time goes by. Theres a lot of things that SPAD can do you won't ever find - its that deep.
I am currently using stream decks and X-Touch mini (my AP).
I use the Stream decks for mainly overhead buttons on TP's and RJ's.
Theres also help close at hand on their Discord.
