Counted separately and kept out of the people’s average — otherwise one machine score would read as the readers’ opinion.

Blackstar is a name most people meet in guitar amps, speaker cabinets, and effects pedals, so it mainly speaks to electric players and home-studio users who want amp-style sound and pedalboard gear. By our assessment, its strength is the modern guitar-world identity: compact practice amps, modelling-flavoured rigs, and pedals built for rock tones and easy shaping of gain and EQ. The trade-off is that this is a specialist brand, not a general music company, and the sound palette leans toward electric guitar rather than broad studio utility. In practice it means knobs, footswitches, and a fair amount of tone chasing, which is half the appeal and half the work. Against bigger all-purpose audio names, Blackstar stays closer to the guitarist’s bench than the mixing desk. Blackstar is for amp sound and pedal control, not for everything with a plug.
