Raydev appears to have no interest in learning anything about the music production process nor putting in any work. I suggest that they are using "expensive gear" as a proxy for "effort, work, sweat, time"

mechanical skills are EARNED, and are a lot of fun to exercise when functioning.

*before anyone suggests "ableism" I refer you to Django Reinhardt, the drummer from Def Leppard, and anyone who has overcome physical disabilities to express themselves upon the musical instrument of their choice.
