I run a YouTube channel about music software, and OBS is normally my go-to for recording tutorials. While I was away on holiday, I suddenly needed to make an urgent video without any of my usual gear, so I gave Screenbolt a try.

It got me out of a real bind. It was far quicker and easier to set up than OBS, and I still ended up with a sharp screen recording and clean audio. No lengthy configuration or messing around before I could start.

For the price, it’s hard to fault. The main features already work well, there’s plenty of room for it to grow, and I’ll be interested to see what they add next.
